Apprenticeship Opportunity in Lubbock
Heritage Births in Lubbock, Texas is looking for an apprentice to join
my practice. A senior apprentice in her primary phase would be ideal,
but I'm open to speaking with apprentices in earlier phases as well. I
just opened my birth center here this summer and I'm averaging about 4-5
births each month, some home birth, mostly birth center birth. Since
West Texas does not have many options for midwives, I have clients who
are driving from up to 2 hours away for this experience and they are
very excited to have the freedom to choose where they give birth. There
are also a couple of other midwives in the Texas panhandle that would
be willing to assist with the preceptorship so that you can get the
required number of signatures needed. There will be no financial
compensation expected from the student in exchange for her
apprenticeship, but unpaid office work related to midwifery operations
will be required. The student will be expected to be available 24/7,
unless otherwise arranged in advance. There is no student housing
available, so you will need to make your own arrangements. There is the
possibility of future hire as a salaried staff midwife once licensed.
If you have any questions or if you are interested in speaking with me
further about an apprenticeship, please feel free to contact me at: heritagebirths@gmail.com or 806-224-8617. Please visit my website at: www.heritagebirths.com to learn more about me, my birth philosophy, and my practice.
