Alda Mills is our midwife. She is dedicated to supporting women through their childbearing years and beyond with personalized fertility and maternity care, as well as holistic wellness that includes herbal support and integrative health.
Her midwife training included a five-year clinical apprenticeship under three diverse preceptors, all of whom were approved by the North American Registry of Midwives. Most notably, she was under the guidance of the founder of Midwives College of Utah.
Haya Midwives was registered with the state of Utah. The Aramaic word Haya (hi-ya) means life. It was chosen to honor Alda’s heritage and give her practice a deeper respect.
Alda is a life midwife, helping to bring in new life and providing holistic health care and wellness throughout all stages of life.
Alda comes from generations of midwives and holistic healers in her ancestral line. Knowing her lineage makes perfect sense of why she wanted to become a baby doctor since the age of eight. Midwifery and holistic wellness is in her DNA!
Her love for supporting women and their families through birth work began in 2012 when she couldn’t deny her calling any longer. Alda’s journey brought awareness of her roots and the healing midwife passion was ignited!
Alda is an attentive Certified Professional Midwife focusing on the care of each pregnancy while honoring informed choices. She emphasizes holistic birth and wellness for healthy pregnancies while providing comprehensive prenatal, birth and postpartum care.
Alda is a mother of three, a widow, and also a childbirth educator who is passionate about supporting women and families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond. She is committed to continually expanding her knowledge through ongoing education in midwifery, Ayurveda wellness, and holistic care.
Outside of birth work, Alda enjoys creating handmade greeting cards and gift bags, rock collecting, meditation, and yoga. She brings her life experiences and love for life into the care she provides.
Alda lived in San Diego where she worked and attended college. She is a beach lover at heart, but the beauty of Utah mountains, family and love for her clients keep her here. She has an entrepreneurial spirit with founding her own businesses and creating a childbirth method that she teaches in between baby catches.
Alda adores the women that she takes care of and their families that she serves. She sees the bravery in them as choosing a home birth usually goes against family and societal norms. She loves providing this safe choice for these amazing family trailblazers!
Alda values the traditional Midwives Model of Care as she provides intuitive and attentive midwife care while honoring your choices and supporting your holistic wellness. She wants you to experience a healthy pregnancy, a positive birth, and a smooth postpartum recovery, supported by skilled, wise haya midwife care.
