Welcome to River Blue Birth.

I am Maliya QutawEneq Rubio-Mills.

I am committed to the philosophy that birth is a normal, human experience and shall be held with reverence. It is sacred. It is ceremony. It is yours.

I believe that changing birth culture and reproductive care practices can have tremendous impact within our communities.

I am committed to a living practice that supports community, social justice, and empowered reproductive experiences.

I am committed to working together in exploring the ways in which you feel best supported and held, along the transformative journey of the reproductive spectrum.

Together we explore options that center you and your family’s needs while asking your/ our selves what it feels like to be an active participant in patient-centered care. My practice is centered in creating space that is respectful, inclusive, responsive, and compassionate, no matter what circumstances arise.

I am currently serving the San Francisco Bay Area , offering midwifery and doula services, sibling support, pregnancy loss counseling, postpartum support, and placenta encapsulation.

In my spare time, I most often find myself ocean side with my dog, Kahlo,  parading through the parks of San Francisco, painting, dancing, cooking, and listening.  

I am always learning.
