In 2011, she earned her certification as a Lamaze educator through Duke University's AHEC program, and was a presenter at the 2011 Lamaze International Conference. She is currently completing a Master’s of Science degree in Midwifery. Over the years, Wendy has embraced continuing education and became certified in other areas to better support mothers and babies.
