Gentle Birth

      Gentle birth is one of the best decisions you can make for your baby. 

      There are many to ways to birth your baby. Whatever option you choose, as a midwife, I want you to feel like your decisions create the most gentle, beautiful way to give birth to your baby. 

    Babies respond to a peaceful entrance into the world. Your home, a birth center or hospital can be the safest and a most intimate scenario for this sacred moment to take place. Whatever place you choose, there are ways to help you uphold your commitment to birthing your baby gently.

     My goal is to meet your pregnancy needs, supporting you and your family on this wonderful journey. Gentle birth has been a part of my life for over 26 years.

     BIRTH is an incredible, life-affirming moment! Giving breath to your baby in a home environment lets you and your family participate in the wonder and God-ordained mystery of birth, making it all the more special.

With gentleness and competent care, we can help you listen to your body so that you can safely and lovingly let baby out to meet his or her new family with joy.  Birth is a reason to celebrate!

           With a midwife facilitated birth, most moms are allowed to give birth in their own time and own way, with careful safety guidelines.  I can provide one-on-one care, supporting you during labor and delivery in your own home, at the birth center of your choosing or the hospital.

     I like to place an emphasis on nutrition and childbirth preparation even in the very early stages of your pregnancy. I can help you address any concerns or areas you would like help with.  Childbirth isn't a disease – but a healthy, normal process to be welcomed and cherished in your unique way.
