When I became pregnant in 1994, I chose to work with homebirth midwives. I received top-notch, highly personalized prenatal care. I was supported beautifully during my labor and birth as well as postpartum. I felt empowered by my birth and am so grateful my daughter received a gentle entry earthside. My own experiences inspired me to offer healing services to women and their families during the childbearing year
