Birth Services

Postpartum Care

With so much preparation and excitement for the birth of your baby, it's easy to forget about the postpartum recovery period.

Pregnancy and childbirth is a major transformation both physically and emotionally and we are here with you every step of the way.

Postpartum care visits are included with our home birth service package.

What our homebirth care package includes:  

We follow a comprehensive care model designed to ensure the best outcomes for both the birthing parent and baby and tailored to your specific needs.  Generally, our homebirth package includes prenatal care, labor and birth care, postpartum care, newborn care, and lactation hare.  We offer telehealth visits as needed for the convenience of the families we serve. Our midwives are licensed and certified to see infants for the first 28 days of life meaning that postpartum and infant care visits are scheduled concurrently, giving you one less thing to do and one less place to be during your time of rest and healing.
