Our Philosophy
Midwifery is human centered work. Our job is to hold the physiologic complexity and the personal transformation of birth in equal regard, using evidence to keep you and your baby safe and the wisdom of midwifery to see you through.
Midwifery is collaborative. My experience and skill work in tandem with your values and hopes for your birth.
Midwifery is rooted in justice and anti-oppression. The medical industrial complex has long harmed marginalized groups, and we believe that midwives have a responsibility to work against that harm and oppression. Queer and trans rights, Black liberation, disability justice, and decolonization inform our values.
Health at every size is our foundation of the health care we provide. We know that BMI and weight are not primary determinants of health, and bodies of all sizes deserve individual and attentive health care.
This model of care protects the joy and wonder of giving birth, with a lot of love and laughter along the way. We look forward to being a refuge from which your family grows.
