Meet JacQue Colson-Smith, Social Media Coordinator for this year's 21st Annual B.I.R.T.H Fair!

JacQue (jack-KWEE) is a Midwife in Training, Birth Assistant, Body Ready Method Pro, and Doula.

As a Body Ready Method Pro, she is trained to assess the pregnant body from head to toe, identify imbalances, and offer personalized movements that restore balance, ease discomfort, and support a smoother birth experience.

She looks forward to offering holistic, empowering midwifery care to the community in the proud legacy of her Grand-Midwife ancestors when she completes her midwifery education.

Beginning next year, JacQue will also be offering Body Ready Birth classes, a whole-body, whole-person, holistic approach to preparing pregnant people and their partners for birth—so stay tuned!

She is excited about BIRTH Fair because she is passionate about empowered, transformational childbirth experiences--as it is your divine right 😉.




Thank you for helping make B.I.R.T.H Fair successful!
