Meet Anjelica, the midwife.
Welcome
Hi there! I’m Anjelica Malone, a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM), International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), and Clinical Herbalist. I have the unique privilege of working in the beautiful northwest coast of Puerto Rico. I’m also a wife, mother, and military veteran. I grew up living across the U.S. and around the world—officially making me a former Third Culture Kid (TCK), an experience that I hold very dear.
I have worked in healthcare and perinatal wellness for a combined 20 years. I earned my Master of Science in Midwifery from Bastyr University, with a specialization in Botanical Medicine for Midwifery Care. I’m also a college professor, teaching the next generation of midwifery professionals obstetric emergency skills.
I’m passionate about providing women with holistic care with a focus on nutrition, stress reduction, and movement. I have over 12 years of professional lactation experience and provide lactation consultations, pregnancy & postpartum support (my absolute passion!), and virtual perinatal wellness sessions, to help women as they aim to navigate life and motherhood with intention. If you are interested in having me support you in your pregnancy or parenting journey, please reach out via our Contact page.
My Passions
I absolutely love to travel, cook, and meet new people. In addition to supporting mamas as they journey through pregnancy, I’m a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu athlete, golfer, and maker (sewing and ceramics are my current obsessions). My husband is a Retired U.S. Coast Guard veteran and we have two athletic and creative girls. Combining my passion for holistic healthy living, elevated experiences, and family unity is at the heart of all Sundial services.
Cross-cultural Life
Throughout my life I’ve had the great privilege of calling many amazing places like New Orleans, Philadelphia, Japan, Italy, Miami, New York City, Puerto Rico, and Guam all home. I grew up traveling in a military family, later joined the U.S. Coast Guard at the age of 17, and served as a Health Services Technician (corpsman) and EMT for 6 years. I later volunteered as a mentor to pregnant refugee and socially-isolated women having a high-risk pregnancy or first birth in the U.S. as a part of The Priscilla Project in Buffalo, New York. That was over 15 years ago! If you’d like to hear me share more about my third culture upbringing and my path to midwifery, take a listen to my guest spot on The Global Chatter podcast, Episode “The Calling” or check it out on YouTube here.
The two overseas births of my daughters showed me just how important perinatal support is and how rich and everlasting the care of a midwife can be, particularly for those living away from their family or living a third culture life. This is what has led me back to this luscious island and to opening The Sundial Co.. I am now sinking my roots in deep here on our little island and extending my branches to meet and embrace women, here in Puerto Rico and around the world as they navigate the beautiful, yet sometimes overwhelming childbearing year(s).
a heart for service
Our Family’s Journey…
a timeline rooted in purpose
This isn’t just a business — it’s the story of a life led by faith, shaped by many moves, and deeply committed to helping families thrive wherever they are in the world. From our first years on the island of Puerto Rico to today, every chapter has built the foundation for Sundial. Here’s how it all began..
2007
united by service
Anjelica and her husband met while serving in the U.S. Coast Guard and married soon after, in South Carolina. From the beginning, their relationship was built on shared values of service, faith, and a desire to make an impact in the lives of others.
2011
first arrival in pr
Their first move to Puerto Rico was meant to be temporary, but the island’s beauty and the warmth of its people captured their hearts. They quickly found a faith community, helped organize local events, and began forming lifelong relationships that would shape their vision for the future.
2013
joy & hardship
Pregnancy and childbirth brought both joy and challenge. Finding a maternity provider that aligned with their needs was incredibly difficult, and navigating life on La Isla often felt like an uphill climb. Though they eventually left the island, they remained deeply connected to the friends and community they had grown to love.
2021
a return with purpose
Anjelica returned with a renewed sense of mission. As a trained midwife and lactation professional, she hoped to contribute to maternal health efforts on the island— serving on the Midwives Association of Puerto Rico board, but was quickly reminded of the complexity of entrenched systems, siloed efforts, and everyday struggles. She remains committed to the belief that acts of service can still spark change.
2025
building something that lasts
SUNDIAL was born from the belief that parenting, wherever you are in the world, should be more than just “getting by.” It should be joyful, connected, and rich with possibility. Today, we’re investing in this vision, carried for over a decade: to be part of the movement that uplifts families here in Puerto Rico and around the world.
