Hospital births vs home births

You know you want a home birth—but finding the right midwife feels overwhelming

Maybe you’ve already had a hospital birth that felt rushed and impersonal—too many rules, too little control.

Maybe you’re a first-time mom, overwhelmed by conflicting advice.

Or maybe you’ve decided on a home birth but feel stuck on the biggest question of all…

❌ “Will I be safe?”
❌ “Is this the right choice for my baby?”
❌ “How do I find someone I trust?”

👉 We get it. And we’re here to guide you through every step.

We believe birth is not a medical event—it’s a natural, transformative experience.

Every mother deserves to feel empowered, supported, and in control of her birth.
And you don’t have to do it alone.

How home births work

1. Your licensed midwife comes to you

I bring everything: oxygen, medications, fetal monitors, and a hospital transfer plan — just in case

2. You labor where you feel safest

Take a bath, nap in your bed, or dance in your living room — no rules, no rush.

3. Your baby arrives in peace

I stay with you from contractions to first cuddles. Immediate skin-to-skin. No bright lights or strangers taking your newborn.
