Our Services

Prenatal & Birth Support

We provide thorough support during your pregnancy, and at birth. We will schedule three mandatory visits. The initial prenatal visit will include our introduction to each other, discussing your birth plan, initiating your care request while beginning to understand the process and some exercises to prepare mentally for your birth. This will be the first step toward putting your birth vision into reality. The second visit will be with your provider to discuss your birth plan. We will discuss solutions in case any birth plan changes arise or location of birth changes. This is to ensure that your birth team members are all on the same page and your birth requests are voiced in advance. The third visit will include learning and practicing comfort measures, relaxation techniques, processing any feelings towards the birth. You, your partner or family member may have questions as you approach the days towards your transition to motherhood. If requested, we will assist during labor & birth. We will be there early on during labor to provide support while you labor at home before deciding to go to the hospital or birth center. As labor progresses we will provide comfort techniques such as massage, aromatherapy and a comforting/reassuring voice. We will support the involvement of the father as well. We will also stay for a few hours after birth to assist in the baby’s first latch (how the baby fastens onto the breast while breastfeeding.) and make sure mom and baby are well adjusted before she leaves. For those who choose labor and birth assistance only, we provide one prenatal visit and one postpartum visit, in addition to your labor support.
