Estee Cupo, LM CPM
Founder/Midwife
It is with great joy that I call myself a wife, mother, and midwife. I have spent eleven years studying and practicing midwifery, attending the births of over 600 babies. As any midwife will confess, this is more than just a job; it is a way of life. Balancing everything can be challenging, but midwifery has taught me a valuable lesson: to prioritize what truly matters, including our family, relationships, health, happiness, and showing compassion toward one another.
I believe that pregnancy and childbirth are normal, biological processes, and I treat them as such. Women should be offered the freedom to move, eat, drink, and feel safe and deeply supported throughout their birthing experience.
It is a complete privilege to serve women during one of the most transformational times in their lives. My goal is to practice from both heart and mind, balancing modern tools with traditional modalities.
As the founder of Full Circle Midwifery, I am equally committed to supporting the families in our care and the team that makes this work possible. I prioritize the well-being of my team and have intentionally cultivated a connected, family-centered work environment. We hold weekly team meetings, talk regularly, celebrate milestones, attend special events together, and show up for one another both in and out of birth. The strength of our practice lies not only in our clinical experience, but in the trust and respect we’ve built together.
I am grateful to share life with my husband, William, and our two daughters—Rose, age 2, and Mina, age 1. I am a homebody at heart, but you can often find me at one of our local springs, exploring a state park, or attending a community event.
Sadie Tate, LM CPM
Midwife
Sadie Tate graduated from The Florida School of Traditional Midwifery in 2020 and is a Licensed Midwife and Certified Professional Midwife here in Florida. After graduating, she joined a busy birth center here which allowed her to blossom into the midwife she is today. Transitioning into a home birth practice will help her continue her passion of midwifery while she also works on growing a family of her own.
Sadie has always trusted the birthing process, which she believes is because she was raised by a mother who birthed at home herself, and allowed Sadie to witness her first home birth at the age of 5!
Sadie’s goal as a midwife is to give evidence based, open minded care, as she attends to you throughout your pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Sadie loves to travel, having backpacked throughout a handful of countries. She also loves exploring the outdoors, gardening and spending time with her husband Jason and their dogs. She welcomed her first baby, Lily, in March 2023.
Sonni Bersamina
Midwife
Sonni’s journey into midwifery began as a calling—one that felt deeply woven into her purpose.
After experiencing the profound transformation of motherhood herself, she followed that calling to apprentice with a wise, two-midwife team on the lush island of Maui, Hawai’i. There, she learned the sacred art of homebirth from seasoned elders, embracing traditions rooted in trust, intuition, and deep connection.
Returning to her home state of Florida, Sonni completed her midwifery training in a birth-center setting, expanding her knowledge while staying true to her holistic roots.
Her philosophy of care honors the whole person. Mind, Body, and Spirit—guiding each client to reconnect with their innate wisdom and primal strength as they navigate pregnancy and birth.
Above all, Sonni believes in walking alongside the families she serves, offering unwavering support, heartfelt connection, and the reassurance that they are never alone in this incredible journey into motherhood.
April Dawn
Student Midwife
April Dawn has been serving families with her whole heart for most of her life. Her journey toward midwifery began as a sophomore in high school when she attended her first birth. In that transformative moment, she felt her calling surge through her like electricity. Initially planning to become a registered nurse, April began pursuing nursing school but soon realized the hospital-based “sick-care” model didn’t align with her values. This discovery led her to explore and serve within naturopathic, chiropractic, food-healing, and massage therapy modalities. She integrated these healing practices into her care for birthing families, offering her gifts in service for over 20 years—long before she even knew the word “doula” existed. Now, with more than 30 years of birth support experience, April has joined the Full Circle team
as a student midwife.
One of her favorite sayings is, “Birth is the first family memory.” She believes that birth is not
only our beginning but also one of the most powerful lifelong imprints we carry in our bodies.
Her mission is to offer the healthiest, kindest, and most loving start possible for each new human
she serves.
April is passionate about “mothering the mother,” believing that when we love and prioritize the
health of the birthing person, we elevate the heart of humanity.
In her free time, April can be found in nature, spending quality time with her family and animal companions, or cooking up something nourishing and delicious for the lucky families she supports.
Kylie Griffiths, RN
Practice Manager
Hi, I’m Kylie! I’m a mother of two, an ex-critical care nurse, and an integrative nutrition health coach. I’ve always been passionate about natural, holistic health, but after having my daughter in 2021, my true passion for helping women during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum was awakened. Though my birth experience was the most empowering of my life, many things went sideways, leaving me feeling broken.
After healing from that experience and having a healing birth with my son, I knew I wanted to help women navigate their own unique journeys in motherhood. I find the most joy in celebrating your triumphs with you and the most purpose in helping you through the challenges. It truly is my heart’s desire to walk beside you in this journey—not only as another mother, but as a friend who really gets it. Moms need moms, and I’m so thrilled and grateful to be part of this beautiful community of women within Full Circle and The Collective Kin!
If I’m not at a farmers market, playground, or the beach with my family, you can find me in the kitchen, whipping up a Joanna Gaines recipe or baking some sourdough.
