Heritage School of Midwifery (HSM)<\/strong> was birthed from the hearts of midwives and lovers of midwifery who saw a need for southwest Florida to have a midwifery school to train highly skilled Florida Licensed Midwives. Kristin Schuchmann, HSM\u2019s Founder and Executive Director, saw this need as she trained to be a Florida Licensed Midwife and had to travel several hours to school each week.<\/p>\nHeritage School of Midwifery (HSM) passionately ensures the rich heritage of midwifery continues to be passed on to the next generation. Midwifery is so much more than a job or career. It is a calling, a culture, and a labor of love. We invite those who share our passion for childbirth to come learn the art and science of midwifery.<\/p>\n
HSM\u2019s robust 3-year midwifery program includes traditional classes and hands-on experience. Students will observe and eventually assist a Florida Licensed Midwife with prenatal, birth, and postpartum care. Upon completing the Midwifery Course, students will receive a diploma and are qualified to become a Florida Licensed Midwife (LM) and a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) by taking and passing an exam administered by the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM). The first class of the Heritage School of Midwifery began in September of 2017.<\/p>\n
