Every woman should have the right to choose where she feels the safest and most supported to birth. This might be at home, in a birth center, or in a hospital.

The Experience
Personalized Care
Pregnancy is a normal physiological event in a woman’s life. Your baby was created by, and is a gift from God. It is our role to appreciate this amazing event and expect a normal birth. We monitor for any variations of normal or abnormal findings. We are experts who explain healthy life habits and the process of birth. We provide support and empowerment as a quiet presence while you labor and give birth.
We allow the birth to proceed naturally, seeking to intervene only when we see a departure from the normal experience. Our midwives are experts in the care of low risk mothers and their babies.
Our primary goal is to always provide the highest level of safety and care for you and your baby.
In the event a high-risk situation occurs, we facilitate consultation, referral or transfer of care to our consulting physician or
The Miracle
From the moment of birth, we encourage you to experience intimate bonding through skin to skin contact and non separation.
Typically the environment into which babies are born is peaceful and quiet with dim lights, soft music and diffusing essential oils. Most mothers labor and even deliver in clean, warm birth pools and choose their own most comfortable positions to labor and birth.
Babies born under these conditions will usually be quiet, alert and actively bond with their parents. It truly is a miracle to witness.
The Journey Continues
We provide continued support and watchful monitoring to the mother and baby from the time of birth and immediately thereafter during the postpartum period. We are attentive to assure the best start on their continuing journey. Following the immediate recovery phase, parents will utilize the skills and education received prior to the birth to carefully monitor both mom and baby. Within the first 24-48 hours, the midwife will visit the family in the home to check on the mom and baby. Between days 3-5, 10-14, and 6 weeks after the birth, mom and baby will return to the birth center for follow up appointments. We stay in close contact at all times and see mothers and babies more often if needed. In addition to these services, the midwives can also assist mothers with breastfeeding and baby care advice when needed.
