The End of a Chapter

It is with great sadness that we announce the closing of the birth center on September 30, 2012. We have been blessed to have attended over 700 births since 2003. It has been a great pleasure to work with our families and help them give birth in a safe, comfortable and supportive environment. Our belief in and support of women seeking natural childbirth in a setting of their choosing is unwavering. We are so sorry that our community will no longer have a birth center to serve those that want that option. Thank you so much for inviting us into your lives.

Our Care

Care

Your journey begins with prenatal visits with our midwives and continues as your needs change. If you wish, a preconception visit can be set up before you become pregnant. Home visits after your birth allow you to rest, yet maintain the care you've grown used to over your pregnancy. 

Classes & Gatherings

Childbirth education classes are an integral part of our program. Our birth center classes are specifically designed to meet the needs of families choosing out of hospital birth including the option for waterbirth.

We offer a number of classes and gatherings to help meet the needs of new parents.

New Clients

Registration forms are available to complete in preparation for the first prenatal visit.
