Relational Midwifery Care

The role of the midwife is to be a support, a guide, a watchful eye as you travel on your childbearing journey. This care is built on the relationship that develops through hour long appointments, open communication and shared decision-making. Planning to birth your baby at home gives you the opportunity to take charge for your own health and the health of your baby, which is a huge but empowering responsibility.

Homebirth services package $4500

I provide comprehensive care for low-risk people planning out of hospital birth. This includes prenatal care that consists of hour long appointments with education, discussions of your priorities for your care, time to answer your questions, risks and benefits of all procedures and testing and of course listening to your baby and tracking their growth and monitoring your physical health and emotional/ mental well being. I do labwork and ultrasounds, screening and testing and follow the typical schedule of monthly appointments starting at 6-12 weeks, increasing to biweekly appointments at 30 weeks and weekly appointments at full term. I will attend your birth with a team of three people, at least one other Licensed Midwife and an assistant or student. I provide full and holistic postpartum care which includes 4-6 hour long visits, breastfeeding support, newborn checks and checks on your physical and mental health. Postpartum care is one thing that sets midwifery care apart from hospital-based care. Throughout the course of your care, you have access to your midwife personally for communication and support. Fees for lab work, ultrasounds, consultations with other providers and birth supplies are in addition to my fee. Call for a free consultation to discuss my services and out of hospital birth.

Payment plan

Community midwifery care is a profoundly different type of care than routine care provided by most hospital-based providers; we spend many hours of face-to-face time, are on call nearly all the time, and work hard to personalize our care for each of our clients. I offer significant discounts for those who qualify for sliding scale prices. I also offer flexible payment plans regardless of income. Please call for a free consultation to discuss options for your care.

Homebirth is typically an out of pocket expense as most insurance plans will not cover care by Licensed Midwives. I am not in network for any insurance and clients have only rarely received reimbursement but I can bill in an attempt for you to be reimbursed for my fees.
