Prenatal care together emphasizes contextual whole-self strength and wellbeing, whatever that means for you. Our visits follow standard prenatal scheduling – once a month for the first 28 weeks, followed by every 2 weeks until 36, then weekly until birth. Visits are about 1 hour long and take place at my home office with a visit to your home toward the end of pregnancy. If partnered, their involvement in care is encouraged. Kiddos, loved ones, and support folks are always welcome. During our visits, I assess vitals including blood pressure, and check in on you and your experience of pregnancy – any feelings, complaints, processing, questions or concerns that you have, your cares, and preparations you are making for birth. Together, we visit babe to measure their growth, listen to heart tones, and determine their position. I offer all standard labs, testing, and screenings, including referral for ultrasound. I guide you through all decisions you may be considering, discussing your options, reviewing the research, and evaluating how it may apply to you.  As your midwife, I am always on call for you should you have any questions or concerns between our visits. Email, texts and calls are welcomed and encouraged.

If at any point during our full course of care together, consultation with, referral to, or transfer of care to a hospital midwife or physician is recommended for either you or your baby, we will discuss considerations and options together, including risks, benefits, and alternatives.  All of your decisions are well-informed and supported.
