Midwifery Services

Our midwifery services include prenatal, postpartum and newborn care.  If you are interested in having a homebirth, please contact us to set up a free consultation.  We value our relationships with our local medical community, chiropractors, massage therapists and other herbalists and can refer you to their care should any need arise.

The following is an overview of our care. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions, if you need further clarification.

Consultation Visit: 

The consultation visit is a time to get to know one another. It’s a time for you ask questions and address any concerns you may have.This is a NO PRESSURE visit. We want you to feel good and comfortable about whatever decision you make regarding the birth of your baby!

Prenatal Care:

If you decide you’d like for us to help you throughout your pregnancy, and birth we will schedule an Initial prenatal visit. This visit usually takes a little longer, because we want to know more about your medical history.
A normal prenatal visit includes, but is not limited to; urinalysis, checking blood pressure, monitoring the growth of the baby, listening to baby’s heart, discussion of diet, and concerns. We want to take good care of you, and teach you how to take good care of yourself! We fill that YOU are the most important person involved in your prenatal care.

Birth:  

During your birth we monitor you, and baby to make sure everything is staying within a normal range. We can provide a birth tub for you, if you think you  may be interested in laboring in the water, or having a water birth.  We joke that our car is a “traveling clinic” because we carry everything, plus some that we might need during a birth, including IV’s, oxygen and resuscitation equipment.

Postpartum :

We monitor you and baby closely after delivery, and continue care throughout the next 6 weeks.  This also includes breastfeeding, and emotional support.
