Amy Olen

Amy has always been compelled to help others in their quest to live healthy, happier lives. She began early on with a career in social services. This included working in health clinics, domestic violence shelters, mentoring organizations, such as Big Brothers Big Sisters, and with the Healthy Start Coalition of Miami-Dade, where Amy both coordinated and facilitated trainings, helped secure and implement successful grants, provided programmatic support, and more.   

Through funding from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), Amy has worked with nearly all the major hospitals in Miami-Dade County to assess and implement policies for more breastfeeding-friendly environments. She also led the Fetal Infant Mortality Review (FIMR) program, where medical and birthing professionals review case files searching for the circumstances leading to, and in an effort to decrease infant mortality.

Amy is a Florida Licensed Midwife (LM) and has traveled out of country to volunteer at birthing clinics delivering in high-risk scenarios. As a Certified Lactation Consultant (CLC), Certified Educator, and Certified Educator of Infant Massage (CEIM), Amy conducts educational sessions helping parents in a variety of pre and postpartum educational settings.

Amy provides regular consulting in curriculum development, writing services, training coordination and facilitation, and program implementation and administration. She has provided clinical midwifery services including full birthing care, prenatal appointments, prenatal education seminars, prenatal nutrition, birthing options courses, and doula services.   

Amy beat an aggressive mutation of stage 3B melanoma, and loves traveling, organic cooking, hiking, yoga, camping, and being a mom.
