Founders of Origins

Founders Gina Thomson, CPM, LM and Kaitlyn Wages, CPM, LM started Origins with a dream to provide a safe place for families to grow in a loving and supportive environment. In 2013 we joined forces after having served the D/FW birth community for many years. Our dream became reality when we purchased the first Origins location in Fort Worth in 2014. As Origins grew we were able to expand and move to a much larger location that is now Origins Birth and Wellness Collective - Fort Worth in 2015. In 2018 we opened our second location in Dallas, allowing us to serve more families and provide them with the Origins experience.
Over the years, it has been a blessing to be able to serve so many families - and we have achieved our mission to birth not only babies, but strong women, fathers, siblings, and grandparents. Being able to give women their bodily autonomy back, empower partners to take an active role with the pregnancy and birth of their children, and provide family centered care has impacted our lives, right along with yours! Our vision for Origins serving our D/FW community came to fruition and then proceeded to exceed all of our expectations. We look forward to what the future holds for Origins as the Lord continues to bless our mission!

Midwifery is in my heart and soul. Midwifery runs deep in my roots dating back to the late 1800s so you could say that this calling chose me, as I am a 4th generation midwife. In 1994, I witnessed my mama give birth to my baby brother at home. It was magical to see birth even as a young seven-year-old. Growing up the daughter of a midwife has given me a unique perspective on the strength of women and what an awesome responsibility it is to share in this profound moment in their lives. Since that realization, I never considered anything else.
Growing up watching my mom empower and help these beautiful families grow made sense, I knew it’s what was in my heart. To me her leaving dinners or holidays always meant she was going somewhere special, it was never a disappointment for me. I began birth assisting with my mom in early 2006, still a senior in high school. This lit something fierce within me that solidified that this is what I would be doing for the rest of my life.
Not long after graduating high school, I did some traveling and adventuring and had my own babies in 2008 and 2011. I finished my nursing prerequisites and shortly after that, started midwifery school when my youngest was 6 months old. Being a midwife is the most rewarding job! It energizes me on the hardest of days. While babies are the sweetest love you can feel, it is the bellies, the undeniable strength of these women doing the hardest thing they will ever do and watching the whole family change; kids becoming loving siblings, partners becoming dads, and parents becoming grandparents in these special, fleeting moments. From hearing the first heartbeat, to women reaching out to hold their baby for the first time after laboring tirelessly to give their baby the very best start in life, it is something so magical. I feel so fortunate to have been able to work so many years side by side with my mama. I have a heart and passion for growing families. In my years of being a Licensed Midwife and Certified Professional Midwife I have caught over 1200 babies; no two deliveries are the same. Each one is special to me in their own way. I can’t wait to watch your belly and family grow!

I was called to begin my journey to become a midwife in 2016 after being inspired by my dear friend who was training to become a midwife herself. I’ll never forget attending my first birth. Midwifery immediately felt like home, and I felt immense peace believing this was exactly what God was calling me to do with my life. It taught me so much, and changed my entire approach to life, my relationships with women around me, and gave me such a greater capacity for compassion and understanding. I was blessed to have learned the art of midwifery from incredible seasoned midwives. After my 5 year internship I graduated from the Association of Texas Midwives academic program and became licensed in the summer of 2021!
I’m married to my best supporter and the biggest out of hospital advocate, my sweet husband Brendon. I love the outdoors, and a good cup of coffee (as most midwives do)!
It’s a humbling experience to be invited into a woman’s most vulnerable and empowering spaces. I am honored and excited to walk with women growing their families!

My journey into the world of birth work began in 2017 when I stepped into the transformative path of motherhood with the pregnancy of my daughter. As a mother on Medicaid, I initially contemplated the hospital setting. However, upon discovering the alarming statistics that Black women in the United States are three to four times more likely to face childbirth-related morbidity and even mortality, I felt compelled to seek out midwifery care as a safer alternative.
It was following the miraculous delivery of my daughter that my calling to birth work truly began to blossom. Eager to make a difference and provide support to other families, I became a doula after my daughter's birth. Only a few years later, I embarked on my midwifery apprenticeship—a decision that solidified my passion and purpose in life. The world of midwifery resonated with me on a profound level, as I discovered the immense joy and fulfillment that comes from caring for families and being "with women" during one of the most intimate and transformative experiences of their lives. With every opportunity to serve and support families during their childbirth journeys, I strive to empower and uplift, ensuring they experience the beauty, safety, and respect they deserve.

My passion for healing began in 2009 when I started my medical career in Aeromedical Evacuation Rescue with the United States Air Force. That passion grew further during my experiences in critical care and trauma within diverse clinical environments. Through change and growth, life brought me to Texas where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree through the University of Texas. The intensity of my previous experiences led me to the ICU in Dallas County’s largest hospital. Through my journey working as a Registered Nurse in the ICU, I knew God was calling me for something more. I discovered an incredible path in women’s healthcare and learned everything I could in Women’s Emergency Services. Influencing and caring for women holistically on a deeper level provided both my patients and me an experience that could never be matched. I felt I had more to learn and my desire to provide a more extensive level of care, led me to complete my Master of Science in Nursing -Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner degree, at the University of Cincinnati. My passion for empowering women continues to gain strength and understanding. I strive to give the choice to women in their own healthcare needs through holistic and comprehensive collaboration. I was blessed enough to deliver our second daughter in 2017 through Origins with three amazing midwives, after a very traumatizing first birth experience 12 years prior. The genuine love and personalized care I received changed my life forever. I knew my calling was to give that feeling back to other women. God created the experience I had prayed for, in all it’s turns and surprises, leading me full circle back to my Origins family, now getting to serve women beside the women I already loved so much.
With the support of my husband and two precious daughters, I’m able to live my dream of pursuing everything that women’s healthcare has to offer. There are no limits to what we can achieve in our industry, continuing to better health care practices and autonomy for each individual woman. “Every part of you is so beautiful, my darling. Perfect is your beauty, without flaw within” ~Song of Songs 4:7
