Rose City Wellness and Rooted Birth were founded by Heather Carmody who also was the founder of The Midwifery Institute. She firmly believes that this change will benefit our students by ensuring stability and improving the quality of communication.

As the changes go into effect, you will see the curriculum being updated with new names and expanded resources and educational activities. You will continue to have full access to any course you have purchased in the past.

An Important Update About Your Program

We want to share an important update about the future of your education and the support systems behind it.

The Midwifery Institute was originally created to expand access to high-quality, community-centered birth education. As the program grew, it became clear that to best serve students—especially in an online environment—it needed stronger infrastructure, clearer oversight, and more consistent support.

To meet those needs, The Midwifery Institute is now being integrated into Rooted Birth, the education arm of our nonprofit organization Rose City Wellness. This change allows us to strengthen the program while preserving its original purpose and values.

Excellence in Education

     At Rooted Birth, we train aspiring birth workers to provide compassionate care based on a marriage of centuries of tradition and modern scientific evidence, to provide a standard of care unmatched by other birth worker education providers. Our training leads our students to practice among diverse populations and honor the holistic significance of birth and its unique place in spiritual, physical, and mental implications for each family.
      The Midwifery Institute was founded in 2014 by midwives with a combined 43 years' experience in birth work. we provide extensive and intensive Birth Worker training in many specialties, continuing education, and webinars on a variety of childbearing-related topics. Unlike many of our competitors, we are an education program- Our courses involve quizzes, tests, research projects and video assignments, all of which are graded by qualified professionals and facilitators.
