Lacy Mansfield, CPM, LM

Certified Professional Midwife | Licensed Midwife, State of Wyoming

Vice Chair, Wyoming Board of Midwifery | Member, Wyoming Midwives Association

My name is Lacy Mansfield, and I am a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) and Licensed Midwife (LM) serving families across southeastern Wyoming. I provide safe, evidence-based, and deeply compassionate care to mothers and families seeking a personalized and empowering birth experience.

My journey began in southeastern Montana, where I worked as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) for nine years, providing emergency care throughout rural communities. That experience built the foundation for my calm presence, critical thinking, and ability to serve families confidently through every kind of birth scenario.

In 2013, I felt a clear calling to midwifery. I began a dual educational program through the National College of Midwifery (NCM) and Mountain Midwives School to meet both Montana and Wyoming licensing requirements. I graduated from Mountain Midwives School in 2017 and earned my Associate of Science in Midwifery (ASM) from NCM in 2019. Soon after, I became a Certified Professional Midwife through the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM) and obtained state licensure through the Wyoming Board of Midwifery.

In 2016, my family and I moved from Montana to southeastern Wyoming, where I established my midwifery practice. Since then, I have dedicated my career to serving women and families with individualized, respectful, and evidence-based care. I currently serve as Vice Chair of the Wyoming Board of Midwifery and hold a leadership role within the Wyoming Midwives Association, where I advocate for midwives and families throughout our state.

Midwifery runs deep in my family’s history. During my training, I learned that my great-grandmother, Sally Harris, was a midwife who served the Northern Cheyenne people. Knowing that I carry forward her legacy has given even deeper purpose and meaning to my work.

Outside of midwifery, I am a wife and homeschooling mother of four. Family is one of life’s greatest blessings, and I thank my Heavenly Father each day for the opportunity to grow, serve, and learn alongside them.

My name is Sydney Calero. I’m a wife, mother of two boys, Navy veteran, photographer, and student midwife completing my Bachelor of Science in Midwifery through the Midwives College of Utah in the summer of 2026.

My path to midwifery began after the birth of my first son, when I felt a deep pull to serve women and families through birth work. After the homebirth of my second child in 2021 (supported by Lacy), that calling became undeniable. I woke up the next morning knowing that midwifery was where I was meant to be.

Since beginning my training, I’ve attended nearly 200 births across Wyoming and Northern Colorado, gaining extensive experience in both home and birth center settings. Upon graduation, I plan to sit for the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM) examination to become a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) and pursue state licensure through the Wyoming Board of Midwifery.

The translation of “midwife” — with woman— defines the heart of my approach. It means walking beside mothers and families emotionally, physically, and spiritually through one of life’s most transformative passages. I believe every mother deserves inclusive, informed, and respectful care rooted in compassion, evidence, and trust.

It has been an incredible honor to learn under Lacy, whose depth of knowledge, skill, and heart-centered approach to midwifery have profoundly shaped my growth as a midwife. Her mentorship has strengthened my confidence, refined my hands, and reminded me daily that midwifery is as much about presence and humility as it is about skill.

Birth is sacred work. It is both ordinary and miraculous... a process that unfolds best when supported with presence, patience, and reverence. I am profoundly honored each time I am invited into a family’s birth space and grateful for the opportunity to grow and serve within this incredible community.

 My name is Arianna Latimer. I am a student midwife at Midwives College of Utah working on my Bachelor’s degree. I chose midwifery for my career because I was born at home with a midwife and have heard stories of the benefits of this birth plan. I have always wanted to have a career where I can help babies and their parents and give them a chance to have a positive birth experience. I was raised in a medical family, however I saw the challenges of traditional birth in a hospital, and wanted to offer others the same benefits my mother had. I have also been raised in a holistic environment and want mothers to have the opportunity to make their birth their own, and experience the beauty of a home birth as an alternative to a clinical hospital experience. I look forward to the opportunity to be part of your birthing journey. 

Hi! My name is Rachel Cotton. I am a 1st year student of midwifery who has already had the privilege of assisting women of various ages and backgrounds during this most transformative time in their lives. I love being able to observe and serve women as they enter their "goddess mode" during birth. I myself have given birth to five children, and I firmly believe in the power, strength, and beauty of labor and motherhood. Lacy is a fantastic midwife. I am so grateful that I get to learn from her as I train to become a CPM or Certified Professional Midwife through the Mercy in Action College of Midwifery. After my training I hope to be able to stay in Casper and continue to serve the women in our community for many years to come.
