Trained and licensed to provide care in all areas of women’s health, our midwives guide you through all the seasons of your life. Our certified nurse midwives can provide routine check-ups, gynecological examinations, contraceptive and birth control counseling, as well as labor and delivery care. They offer comprehensive support and care from the teenage years, all the way through menopause.
Our midwifery philosophy of care includes prenatal education and counseling, which enables women to make informed choices for their best birth experience, and the autonomy to decide what choice they feel is natural.
Midwives can be the sole provider for healthy women with uncomplicated pregnancies before, during and after giving birth. They offer mothers a holistic approach during the childbirth process, support natural childbirth techniques, provide guidance and support during the pushing phase, and offer assistance to find a position of comfort for mothers’ labor and delivery.
Each provider joining our team has received board certification through the American Midwifery Certification Board (AMCB).
