    If you are referring to the time each month that a married woman goes to the Mikveh, there is no Rabbi present at all. Rather, a woman is in charge of the place of immersion and the immersion, and she ensures that everything is done according to Jewish Law.

    If you are referring to when a person immerses in the Mikveh for conversion, the Bet Din comprised of three Rabbis is present, but they do not watch the actual immersion, as that would be a breach of the laws of modesty.
