“Attending births is like growing roses. You have to marvel at the ones that just open up and bloom at the first kiss of the sun but you wouldn’t dream of pulling open the petals of the tightly closed buds and forcing them to blossom to your time line.” — Gloria Lemay

A Holistic Approach to Prenatal, Birth & Postpartum Care.


PRENATAL CARE. During the pregnancy we provide screening, testing, education, and monitoring of the growth and development of both mother and baby. We take the time to build relationships, which fosters trust and confidence in the birth experience.

BIRTH CARE. Birth is each woman's unique and personal journey. Receiving a nurturing experience during this journey helps her transition into motherhood.  We specialize in a traditional midwifery model that promotes the safety of mother and baby, while supporting a woman’s ability to birth as she wishes. We believe that protecting the normal process of labor is the best way to ensure the success of early bonding and breastfeeding.

BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT. Breastfeeding is a natural experience between mother and baby. However, the experience can sometimes be difficult for new moms. We provide mothers with techniques to ensure that the experience is a positive one for both mother and child.

 

WELL-WOMEN GYNECOLOGY. We provide care for women from the beginning of their reproductive years through menopause and beyond. Our services include yearly exams, Pap smears and lab tests, family planning, and menopause care.

HERBAL OPTIONS. We have completed additional training in the use of herbs and nutritional strategies to enhance health. Our special interest in these areas allows us to offer a unique, comprehensive approach to women’s health challenges across the lifespan. 

 

Testimonials

“From our first meeting with Deb, we felt encouraged and comforted by her demeanor, professionalism, and sincere interest in all aspects of our journey into parenthood. Our prenatal care was incredibly thorough and thoughtful, as she took the time to get to know us and helped us sail through pregnancy with confidence. During our birth, Deb and April attended and cultivated a space that felt safe and supportive. They went above and beyond in the first few days postpartum to make sure that the entire family was cared for. We could not have asked for better midwives, and will absolutely be seeking their care for future births.” — Kristina Rose & Kyle Barnhart
