Bio:
Kaitlyn McMahon has wanted to work with women and babies since she was four years old and she got to be present for the birth of your baby brother. After becoming a registered nurse, McMahon worked as a labor and delivery nurse in a busy hospital in Pennsylvania where 6,000 babies were delivered each year, gaining experience in caring for high-risk patients. Wanting to further her education and expand her scope of practice, McMahon pursued a dual Master of Science from Georgetown University, graduating as both a certified nurse midwife and a women’s health nurse practitioner. McMahon is passionate about providing equitable care, particularly for populations that have been underserved. She believes in caring for the whole person—emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically. McMahon emphasizes the importance of open communication with her patients, addressing patient needs and healthcare goals. She is an advocate for Health at Every Size (HAES) and is educated in trauma-informed care.
