Complete Family Midwifery services
Sound and highly tailored medical care combined with relevant and meaningful education for parents.
Prenatal Care
One-hour long visits every three weeks from week 6 to 28, every two weeks from week 28 to 35 and once a week until birth.
At every visit, I strive to provide the medical care, the emotional support and the stage-appropriate childbirth education for the parents, as well as tailored advice on nutrition, exercise, relaxation and mindfulness training.
I also provide specialized care for women who are suffering from trauma or other special circumstances, and perform and prescribe medical testing appropriate for their pregnancies.

Childbirth
Labor and delivery for both mothers who choose to have a home birth, and those who give birth at a hospital - recognizing that like doctors, hospital-affiliated midwifes can only offer medical support in small time slots.
Postpartum care
Daily postpartum visits to the mother's home for the first week, and additional visits at two, four and six weeks after birth to provide medical follow ups, as well as physical, educational and emotional support at a time when women themselves need "mothering."
During postpartum visits you will learn about newborn care procedures and vaccines, and about newborn emotional needs and raising infants with respect and confidence. You will also learn how to avoid complications after birth, and get referrals for healthcare providers.

Lactation Consulting
I am also a lactation specialist and provide in-home consultations for mothers breastfeeding. During lactation consulting visits, you will get help to resolve breastfeeding issues, receive advice about dietary needs during the lactation period, and learn about the physiology and needs of a newborn baby.
