Hi, I’m Marina Andaluz-Bates, BSM, LM, CPM — licensed midwife, Certified Professional Midwife, and home birth mother of two.

I founded Leona Holistic Midwifery Services to provide personalized, holistic care for families seeking a safe, supported, and empowering home birth experience.

A graduate of the Midwives College of Utah with clinical training at Balance, I bring years of experience as a labor and delivery surgical tech and a deep understanding of birth from my own home birth experiences.

I believe birth is a sacred rite of passage, not just a medical event. My relationship-centered, evidence-based approach honors your body’s innate wisdom while supporting informed choice, autonomy, and shared decision-making. My care also emphasizes nutrition, gentle movement, and lifestyle practices to nurture a healthy pregnancy and birth.

When laboring woman feel safe, seen, and supported, birth can unfold as it was designed to—powerful, intentional, and deeply meaningful. I am honored to witness and protect this sacred space, supporting not only physical well-being but emotional and spiritual wholeness as well.

Amaya serves as a Registered Nurse, Advanced Holistic Lactation Consultant (in training), IBCLC, and Community-Based Doula. She graduated from Oral Roberts University (ORU) with her Bachelors of Science in Nursing and is currently enrolled in the Doctorate of Nursing Midwifery program at Baylor University.

Her interest in perinatal health began at ORU when she first heard about the grave disparities in maternal and infant health outcomes in the United States. With nursing experience in High-Risk Obstetrics and Labor and Delivery, her love and passion for holistic perinatal health and wellness has continued to grow. She believes in the power of women and their ability to grow, birth, and nourish their babies. She desires to be a part of empowering, person-centered, safe, non-judgemental spaces where birth is revered and the sacredness of pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum is restored. She is ecstatic to be a part of the Innovations team and looks forward to serving women and families in the Tulsa area.
