Meet the Staff at Antelope Valley Birth Center

Tesa Kurin

California Licensed Midwife, Mentor, Wife and Mother

I am a dedicated Midwife, proudly serving the Antelope Valley Area through my ownership and operation the facility I established in 2016, The Antelope Valley Birth Center. Additionally, I extend my care to two satellite locations in Tehachapi and Ridgecrest, ensuring that expectant families have access to comprehensive and personalized support.


Embracing a holistic approach to Midwifery, I guardian the principles of autonomy and the Family's right to make informed decisions for themselves and their precious baby, free from any form of coercion or intimidation.


My journey in this incredible field began in 2012 when I embarked on my Midwifery path. Prior to that, I spent three years as a doula, offering unwavering support to families during their transformative journey into parenthood. My commitment to caring for others extends beyond birth, as I proudly served in the USAF before focusing my expertise on Labor and Birth.


Nestled in the heart of Tehachapi, California, I share my life with my devoted husband, Randy, who has been my steadfast partner for over two decades. Our dynamic family of eight, including six wonderful children, thrives in an environment where we embrace the joys of homeschooling.


Beyond my Midwifery practice, I actively contribute to the birth community as the Vice Chair of the California Association of Birth Centers. My dedication to fostering excellence in Midwifery extends to my role as a Midwife Instructor, where I passionately share my knowledge through a diverse range of courses.


During moments of respite from my work, you can find me exploring the local trails on my mountain bike or working in my home garden. These endeavors allow me to recharge and reflect, ensuring that I can continue to offer the highest level of care to those I have the privilege to serve.


I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to connect with you and support you on your unique journey. Let's come together to create a remarkable birth experience that aligns with your values and aspirations.
