Anna Humphreys (she/her)

LM, CPM, MSM, MPH
Midwife and Owner
I was born into the loving hands of a midwife, and my parents still speak of that birth with a sense of wonder. While I grew up, my mom was a birth photographer, paving the way for my own fascination. I always wanted to know the stories, see the pictures, and meet the babies. I attended my birth at age 12 for one of my mom's clients. I will admit to fainting when the placenta came out, but that didn't stop me!
I became a doula in 2012 in Southern Oregon and served over 100 families in my time there. I adored being part of these beautiful journeys.
I taught childbirth education and infant massage, and volunteered with high-risk pregnancies that showed me many challenges people face. My perspective of birth became intertwined with the pressing need for system change. I received my MPH from UW in 2020 and shortly returned to school to become a midwife, combining my public health knowledge with hands-on community care. 
I spent my first year of clinical practicum with Snohomish Midwives and I loved it. My next 8 months were with Lake Washington Midwives, a busy practice based out of Puget Sound Birth Center. I really enjoyed my time there honing my skills, but was very happy when I was asked back to Snohomish to round out my education! 
I graduated from Bastyr University in June 2024 and joined Snohomish Midwives as co-owner and midwife. 

Originally from Colorado, I've had the pleasure of living in Washington since 2016. I share a home with my husband, mother, brother, and two beloved dogs. I love gardening, knitting, audiobooks, fermenting vegetables, getting outside, and doing hot yoga. When not on call, I try to get out for a long bike ride, hike, or backpacking trip.
