Yosselin Joaquin, Billing Manager
Hi, my name is Yosselin. I am blessed to be a wife and a mother of both a daughter and a son. First, I would like to thank God for finding an opportunity at Acorn Community Birth & Wellness Center. I believe that as women we have a great privilege that makes us worth more than precious stones; the great gift of being able to give birth.
As a woman of faith I love seeing the miracle of how everything from the mother’s womb is wonderfully made by God.
I am a caring, empathetic and dedicated person. I take my job as the word says, “In all the work you are doing, do it heartily as if unto the Lord.” I see my job as a way of helping others with the talents that God has given me. I am happy to serve all the moms in this center.

Sedona Lercara LM, CPM, Clinical Director/Licensed Midwife
Sedona is an ardent and dedicated midwife, focused on individualized care and connection. She received her degree in Biological Physics from the University of San Diego with the intention of going to medical school, especially drawn to pediatrics. A shadowing experience illuminated how little time they were able to spend with their patients and altered her interest in allopathic medicine. After being introduced to the midwifery model of care by her chiropractor, she took her first step into the birth world and became a doula.
Shortly after certification, she was called deeper into the transformative power of birth, diving into the Nizhoni Institute of Midwifery and was enthralled with the holistic care that supports the journey of the mother/baby dyad and their unique needs as they arise. Her student path was swift as Covid shut down the world after beginning school and an internship with Acorn. Rapidly changing policies led to many women looking for support drastically different than the “new normal” and finding refuge in our center, most without previously considering unmedicated, out of hospital birth. Witnessing mothers having their babies in the way they felt safest and supported, while midwives and students were called to shepherd in the transition of care in such erratic times, laid the foundation for her trust in the birth process and call to service. Midwifery licensure in the state of California in 2023 marked one of many milestones on her midwifery journey. After supporting hundreds of births, and well over a thousand families through Acorn, she couldn’t imagine life any other way.
