Midwifery Services
Specializing
in midwife-assisted home birth, water birth, and birth center
births, WOMB midwives believe that birth can be an ultimate transformative event granting
women an opportunity to discover their inner strengths. Midwives
endeavor to create a safe and protected environment where mothers and
babies can meet each other face to face for the first time in an
atmosphere of love and security. Our midwives also counsel women
regarding all fertility issues and provide well-woman gynecological
care. Depending upon your needs, you may be referred to a licensed
midwife, a certified-nurse midwife, or a direct-entry midwife. Each
follow slightly different philosophies, and one might be more
appropriate for one woman than another.
