Midwifery care is holistic and focused on helping women have the healthiest pregnancy and birth possible. Midwives care deeply about our patients’ physical health and also their emotional well-being. Having the best birth experience involves everyone in the family. I work with my patients’ partners and children to help them understand how their support can contribute to a healthy pregnancy. Part of my work is to involve family members in prenatal care and help them prepare to welcome a new baby. I want my patients and their families to feel respected and supported by my care. My ultimate goal is for women to feel empowered by their birth experience.
