pregnancy + birth + postpartum

︎︎︎



 I’m Jhenyfeir Esmeralda Cubero, a Certified Nurse Midwife and a mother of two, offerin birth services in Richmond, Virginia. My passion for the journey of pregnancy, birth, and reproductive health has fueled my career, dedicated to supporting individuals and families through one of life's most profound experiences, whether in the hospital or home setting.

My philosophy is simple yet profound: every person deserves to have the birth experience they desire, supported by evidence-based care that ensures safety and well-being. I believe in empowering individuals to make informed choices about their care, with their preferences and desires guiding every decision.

Prenatally, I provide thorough examinations, personalized guidance, and continuous support to ensure the well-being of both mother and baby. Through regular check-ups and open communication, I empower families to make informed decisions about their care, fostering confidence and trust throughout the pregnancy journey.

During labor and delivery, I am a steadfast presence, offering skilled clinical care and emotional support to guide mothers through the miraculous process of childbirth. With a deep understanding of natural birthing techniques and comfort measures, I help mothers navigate the intensity of labor with grace and confidence, ensuring a safe and empowering experience for both mother and baby.

In the postpartum period, I offer comprehensive follow-up care, including breastfeeding support, newborn care education, and emotional guidance for the new family. By addressing the physical and emotional needs of mothers and babies, I strive to facilitate a smooth transition into parenthood, empowering families to thrive in the early days of their journey together.

Beyond clinical care, I have a special interest in holistic wellness and natural childbirth education. Through classes and workshops, I educate families on nutrition, mindfulness, and childbirth preparation, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to embrace a holistic approach to health and wellness throughout the childbirth experience.

In my clinical practice, I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that honors the innate wisdom of the birthing process while prioritizing the safety and well-being of every mother and baby. With a blend of clinical expertise and heartfelt compassion, I strive to create a supportive environment where families can experience the transformative power of childbirth with confidence and peace of mind.

Thank you for considering me to be a part of your journey. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you with compassion, expertise, and a genuine commitment to helping you achieve the birth experience you envision.

Soy Jhenyfeir Esmeralda Cubero, una Partera Certificada y madre de dos hijos, ofreciendo servicios de parto en Richmond, Virginia. Mi pasión por el viaje del embarazo, el parto y la salud reproductiva ha impulsado mi carrera, dedicada a apoyar a individuos y familias a través de una de las experiencias más profundas de la vida, ya sea en el entorno hospitalario o en casa.

Mi filosofía es simple pero profunda: cada persona merece tener la experiencia de parto que desee, respaldada por cuidado basado en evidencia que garantice la seguridad y el bienestar. Creo en empoderar a las personas para tomar decisiones informadas sobre su cuidado, con sus preferencias y deseos guiando cada decisión.

Durante el embarazo, proporciono exámenes exhaustivos, orientación personalizada y apoyo continuo para garantizar el bienestar tanto de la madre como del bebé. A través de chequeos regulares y comunicación abierta, empodero a las familias para que tomen decisiones informadas sobre su cuidado, fomentando la confianza y la confianza a lo largo del viaje del embarazo.

Durante el trabajo de parto y el parto, soy una presencia firme, ofreciendo cuidado clínico experto y apoyo emocional para guiar a las madres a través del proceso milagroso del parto.

En el período posparto, ofrezco cuidado de seguimiento integral, incluido apoyo para la lactancia materna, educación sobre cuidado del recién nacido y orientación emocional para la nueva familia. Al abordar las necesidades físicas y emocionales de las madres y los bebés, me esfuerzo por facilitar una transición suave a la maternidad, empoderando a las familias para que prosperen en los primeros días de su viaje juntos.

Más allá del cuidado clínico, tengo un interés especial en el bienestar holístico y la educación sobre parto natural. A través de clases y talleres, educo a las familias sobre nutrición, mindfulness y preparación para el parto, equipándolas con el conocimiento y las habilidades para abrazar un enfoque holístico de la salud y el bienestar durante toda la experiencia del parto.

En mi práctica clínica, me comprometo a proporcionar cuidado compasivo basado en evidencia que honre la sabiduría innata del proceso de parto, al tiempo que priorizo la seguridad y el bienestar de cada madre y bebé. Con una combinación de experiencia clínica y compasión sincera, me esfuerzo por crear un entorno de apoyo donde las familias puedan experimentar el poder transformador del parto con confianza y tranquilidad.

Gracias por considerarme como parte de su viaje. Espero con interés la oportunidad de servirles con compasión, experiencia y un compromiso genuino de ayudarles a lograr la experiencia de parto que imaginan.

I became a Midwife because I love supporting people through this beautiful ritual that can so often be intimidating. I was supported through my own births by an amazing Midwife and doula both of whom provided my partner and I with continuous and unconditional support. Now, I feel driven to provide that same care for others. It has been a life-changing decision to dedicate myself to birth work and I am so glad my personal experience moved me to empower others during their own transition into parenthood. So much so that I became a registered nurse to work in labor and delivery and now a Midwife.

Birth is a sacred time that should be protected. When working with expecting parents, my goal is to help equip you with the necessary tools to have your dream birth while keeping you safe. I focus on presenting evidence-based information to my clients; that way, you can find your approach and tailor your birth to your desired experience.

I’m ever present for labor and delivery, providing safety and comfort. I’m prepared to assist with pain management. I provide the laboring person with comfort, coping techniques, relaxation, acupressure, massage as well as guidance to your labor partner, when needed. I ensure confidentiality.
