Hi, I am Katie O’Brien.
Certified Nurse Midwife with
Over 15 Years Experience
I am a certified nurse midwife who has been committed to patient care since graduating in 2007. I graduated from Salisbury University in 2006 with my BSN and then headed straight to Georgetown University for my master’s degree in Nurse Midwifery. I graduated from Georgetown in 2007 and have been delivering babies and caring for women across their lifespan ever since. I have worked in three different practice settings in two states which has given me experiences across the spectrum of healthcare preferences. I am experienced in low-risk natural childbirth as well as high risk, highly medicalized childbirth. I have taken care of teens and women for their gynecological needs. I know firsthand how challenging it is to provide enough education in a 10-15 minute appointment. Having two young daughters, I know there is a need for health-based information that is not found through a quick online search. I do not have a one way is the right way approach and my passion lies in providing information in a way that allows each family to have access to information fitting their unique needs.

Mindful Midwifery was originally created in 2022 with the goal of providing expert taught women’s health classes. For over two years, childbirth, puberty and menopause classes were the sole business offerings. In July of 2024, we excitedly expanded our services to prenatal, postpartum and gynecological care. Mindful Midwifery is excited to offer these services out of the office location of Dover Health Care Center and Chiropractic. When you are seen by Katie O’Brien for in-person care you will be seen at 212 S Queen Street, Dover, DE 19904. Mindful Midwifery will continue to otherwise operate out of 261 E Camden Wyoming Ave Camden, DE 19934.
Traditional healthcare models are increasingly limiting a provider’s ability in the office setting to spend time educating people on their health needs. Education is at the heart of whole-body wellness. Mindful Midwifery’s goal is to merge the information gap between whole body wellness and clinical healthcare. Our society has also become continuously more online based, losing the sense of community in the process. We are taking back the power that lies in face-to-face connection with a women’s health provider.
