    photo_christahansenChrista Hansen, a Certified Nurse Midwife licensed by the state of Arizona, is also a Womens Health Nurse Practitioner. Her education is in nursing and midwifery with a degree from Yavapai College in Nursing and a Masters !1 degree from Frontier Nursing University. She is nationally certified by the American College of Nurse Midwives Certification Board.

    Christa says, “I am the proud mother of four amazing children. I have wanted to be a midwife for almost my whole life. I was born in Austria, Europe. I gave birth to three of my children at home, with wonderful midwives caring for me. I believe that women should play an active role in their health care, pregnancy care and birth. I want to create an environment and a relationship where a woman feels supported and comforted based on trust and mutual respect. I believe in personal contact and open communication.”

    ” Midwife means “with women”, supporting women through their lifetime.”

    Paula Matthew had a personal experience assisting a neighbor give birth as a young woman that compelled her to become a Midwife. Paula described her education and experience, “I began my studies in 1978 and attended the Arizona School of Midwifery in Tucson. In 1981 I took the three part exam, passed and began my practice in Northern Arziona immediately. Since then I have had the tremendous honor of supporting many women and their families in this incredible rite of passage.

    “I am a member of the Midwives Alliance of North America and the Arizona Association of Midwives. I have been a childbirth educator for many years and a La Leche League Leader. I have also served on the advisory committee to the Midwife Licensing Department and served two terms on my local School Board.”

    Regular hours at La Luna Birth and Womens Center will be Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 12 noon to 3:00pm with a Free Womens Health !2 Clinic on Mondays 3pm – 6pm (fees for lab work may apply). For more information check out the birth centers website: lalunabirthcenter.com.

    If I Were Curtis Sliwa
    By Tommy Acosta

    One of my guilty little pleasures is imagining what I would do if I was in someone else’s shoes, especially politicians. In this essay I would love to jump into the shoes of Curtis Sliwa, a former New York City vigilante who founded the Guardian Angels and is now running as a Republican for mayor of his city.
