let's turn the tables
WE Have some
questions for you!
Our “In the Know” section allows you to find answers to common questions you may have about out-of-hospital birth.
We'd like you to consider the following questions for yourself. This will help you envision your role in your care and the commitment you’ll need for a healthy pregnancy and delivery.
What do we mean by
"turning the tables"?
Where did you first learn about home birth?
Do you know anyone who has had an out-of-hospital birth?
Why do you want to have your baby out of the hospital?
How is out-of-hospital birth different from hospital birth?
How might someone prepare differently for an out-of-hospital birth than a hospital birth?
What does “natural birth” mean to you?
What are some of the most important qualities you would like your midwife to have?
How might you invest resources, energy, and research into achieving a healthy home birth?
How will you commit to exercise regularly, eat nutritiously, stay hydrated, and promote your success?

To hire a midwife is to partner in your healthcare.
As your midwives, we provide informed consent and evidence-based practices to create a safe and empowered childbirth experience.
That means we commonly spend an hour with you during appointments. We focus on preventative measures, nutritional counseling, exercise to prepare your body for birth, healthy lifestyle choices, and physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
We also enlist a broader team of professionals to meet the individual needs of our clients. We refer to an excellent network of chiropractors, childbirth educators, massage therapists, physicians, and other health care providers for optimal care.
