HomeBirth
During labor and birth I safeguard you and your baby's wellbeing as you take the time you need to birth your baby in your way.
In early labor we stay in close contact. By active labor (or earlier if desired) I arrive at your home and remain with you through the duration of your birth and the first few hours postpartum. A second midwife arrives nearer to the time your baby will be born.
