- 36-week home visit if planning a home birth
- Monitoring baby’s growth, your vitals, and symptoms of pregnancy
- Emotional well-being and stress management support
- Education about labor, birth options, and family preparation
- In-office labs, referrals, and prescriptions for certain pregnancy-related issues as needed
- Herbal recommendations tailored to your pregnancy, body, and overall well-being
When I became pregnant with my third baby, I knew I wanted the support of homebirth midwives during pregnancy and birth. Caroline was always welcoming and kind, checking in with me during each visit about how I felt physically and emotionally. The wonderful thing about working with out-of-hospital midwives is their attentiveness to holistic care, not just a focus on the health of the baby but a look at how the mother is doing in all aspects as well.

Labor & Birth
By the time your baby arrives, we’ve spent months getting to know you—your story, your family, and your unique needs. This allows us to provide calm, personalized support in labor at whatever birth location feels right for you.
Labor & Birth Care Includes:
- A midwife on call for your birth from 37–42 weeks
- Two licensed midwives at your birth (including hospital transfer support if needed)
- Birth supplies (disposable items such as gloves, chux pads, etc.)
- Birth tub rental for water birth, if desired
- Emotional and physical guidance tailored to your preferences
- Personalized labor prep herbal tincture
Rachel was part of the midwifery team for our care with our son. Throughout our appointments for the 7 months we saw her, we grew so close to her! She is an amazing listener, knowledgeable, and encouraging. She continuously cheered me on and informed me of things I had questions about, creating a safe place for us throughout my pregnancy. I had anxiety about seeing doctors and my pregnancy- but she melted that away.
When I went into labor- I was so happy to have her on my team. Rachel is strong, nurturing, smart, safe, caring, gentle, everything you could ever want in a birth team.

Rachel was so calm at my birth. She was just what I needed when my baby was brought into this world and I’d have her there for 100 more babies! At all of my post birth home visits she was so warm, and she was so gentle and loving with my babe! She remembered me and my history at all of my appointments and I truly felt like a friend and was confident in her abilities and knowledge. She was so great! Thank you Rachel!
