Holistic
Comprehensive care including listening to fetal heartbeat, measurements, vitals, urinalysis and nutritional counseling at each appointment. Family is welcome!
Full birth services from arrival at your home in active labor, to 2-3 hour after delivery. Including monitoring of mother and baby, labor support, and a trained birth assistant.
Client's are welcome to use a tub of their own, or are free to use one of our inflatable labor pools for no additional cost*. Upgraded tubs are available, prices vary.
Includes 2-3 hours of monitoring and support, for both mother and baby following birth. A follow-up homevisit will be scheduled for 24-48 hours. Then 2 office visits will follow on day 10-14, and at 6weeks.
Optional ultrasound exams are offered in-office. We are able to see a heart beat at 8 wks and gender at 20 wks! These are for non-diagnostic use only.
Clients are welcome to borrow from a wide selection of books and DVDs on pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding!
Clients receive an organic herbal gift bag following their birth, which may include: diaper ointment, nipple cream, sitz bath and milk boosting tea. All made by your midwife!
I received a graduate degree in Naturopathy from Trinity College in 2005, which I have integrated into my homebirth practice to encourage healthy mothers and babies! Many common pregnancy conditions can be prevented naturally.
We offer access to a full service laboratory, and can collect your bloodwork, cultures, and pap smear samples in our office. No need to run to the lab for a blood draw! The cost of this labwork is not included in your midwifery fee. However, our lab is contracted with most major insurance companies (including Medicaid, Tricare Prime/Standard, Kaiser, and most HMO, EPO, & PPO plans), so it should be covered by your insurance...even if your homebirth is not!
I became a licensed massage therapist in 1997, and specialized in prenatal and postpartum massage, prior to becoming a midwife. I no longer offer private sessions ( I refer to my associates), but I love to utilize this experience to help my clients have a more comfortable birth!
For my clients who are interested in the benefits of placenta medicine, I offer encapsulation services for an additional fee. The price includes pick up, choice TCM or "raw" preparation, encapsulation, a custom herbal blend and delivery. Tinctures are also available for a small fee.
I am currently a Certified Encapsulation Specialist though APPA.
Preserve a cast of your beautiful belly for all time. Created using plaster, your "casting session" will typically take 45 min. The basic cast will be plain white plaster, or you can have it finished with a glossy paper top coat for an additional $25. Tie a ribbon on & display it!
