Our Philosophy
We believe that each labor and birth is a miraculous and unique experience, and that the emerging family is the center and focus of that experience. While the course of labor and birth is unpredictable, each family should be able to choose for themselves how they would like to respond to it - where they feel safe, who they want to deliver their baby, who else they would like to have with them, and whether or not they want to use pain medications and other technology. We believe that there is more than one good way to have a baby, and that the birth experience can be a joyful and happy memory regardless of the circumstances which surround it. We believe that most births are healthy and normal. Our goal is to support our clients in reaching their goals, and not to try to persuade them to give birth in any particular way. |
