Birth
Natural birth is what we do.
And you can totally do it too.
1
Home Birth
Home birth is a sweet way to welcome your child. We attend home birth within one hour from either of our locations.
We help every step of the way to make sure you know everything you need to be prepared for your home delivery.
After the birth, we take close care of you and your baby so you can both be tucked in together as your midwives tiptoe out of your post-birth bliss. And don't worry- we make sure your bed, floors, and linens are protected and your space will be more than tidy upon our departure.

Birth Center
We also offer our services at the Monadnock Birth Center in Swanzey, NH. In this facility, specifically designed with birth in mind, you can sink into their three-feet-deep water birth tub, or take a walk around the beautiful gardens that surround the birth center.
Although Cheshire Medical Center is less than 15 minutes away, you can feel at ease in this home-away-from-home environment.
MBC also has pain relief options which are not available at home births.

Hospital Birth
We offer total prenatal and postpartum care with the option of midwife support and birth advocacy at your hospital delivery. This is good option for those who aren't quite sure they want a home birth, but who want the benefits of community midwifery care, or those who have medical conditions which make birth outside of the hospital too risky.

Birth Plan
Although supporting beautiful births is our job, we remain aware that this is the only time you get to give birth to this baby. That will never become "routine" for us.
We partner with each client to craft a birth plan that includes all of the special touches that makes your baby's birth the once-in-a-lifetime experience it is.
Sometimes things don't go according to plan, but we check in moment-to-moment to ensure the care and desire you lovingly poured into your birth preparations are respected and upheld.
