How Care Works
From the positive test to postpartum, one relationship the whole way.
Here's exactly what to expect at every stage — no surprises, nothing skipped.
Free Consultation
30 minutes to an hour, completely free. Come in person for a full tour of the birth center, or meet virtually — whichever's easier. We'll walk through everything included in care, and just as importantly, what isn't, so there are no surprises later.
Enrollment
Once you're ready to move forward, we request records from your current provider to confirm you're a good fit for low-risk midwifery care. A retainer secures your place on the calendar — we only take a few clients each month by design, so it does fill up. From there, we schedule your first prenatal visit and send you access to your own chart.
Prenatal Care
Monthly visits until 28 weeks, every two weeks until 36 weeks, and weekly after that; with care centered around evidence-based decisions. There is full transparency. Each visit runs 30 minutes to an hour with no wait time, covering good nutrition and lifestyle choices, education, breastfeeding and labor prep, comfort measures, optimal fetal positioning, family involvement, and a full review of your labs and ultrasounds. Labs are drawn in-house; ultrasounds are by outside referral.
Birth
At the birth center or in your own home — water birth is available in both settings. We attend births between 37 and 42 weeks. We thoroughly monitor and assess mom and baby in the immediate postpartum period, with comprehensive instructions given at discharge.
Postpartum
Home visits on Day 1 and Day 7, a Day 3 check-in (virtual or in-home if needed), then follow-up visits at 2 weeks and 6 weeks in the office. This stage gets less attention almost everywhere else — here, it can be the most important, and it's built into the plan from day one.
Where every journey leads.
