Oh my goodness! Where do I start?! For my last pregnancy I was in search of an AMAZING midwife in Sacramento, (yes, I actually wrote that in the search bar) and Mackenzie Rose Midwifery popped right up. Within a timely manner after inquiring about a consultation, Mackenzie contacted me back. Our consultation lasted a little over an hour, after we got off the phone I made my decision to book her as my midwife. Her energy over the phone was so sweet, compassionate and loving. Throughout the months she would drive over an hour to check on me and my baby girl. She would explain anything and everything she was doing. She answered all questions I would asked with patience and deep wisdom; she even included my family in the appointment(s) that they could be hands on in some parts. Every appointment she always brought thoroughness, compassion, and happiness to my family. When I went into labor, I called Mackenzie early morning and she didn't hesitate to tell me to keep her updated, and she was already on her way by 8 am. She arrived around 9 am and checked to see how far a long I was in labor and knew I wouldn't have time to get in the birthing tub. Her sweet and calm words added even more peace and happiness in the room. She noticed I was a little stagnant with my process. She then she told me to stand up and lean on my mom. Her and my husband kneeled on the ground, arms out stretched and with two huge loving deep breaths my husband caught our daughter with Mackenzie right by his side. Mackenzie performed all newborn screenings, she came equipped with everything needed for myself and my daughter. She cleaned up so well, the only way anyone would know I had a baby in my home; was to see my baby their selves. After that she made a herbal wash, and tea to help with postpartum healing. Her loving support didn't stop there, she continued to go ABOVE AND WAY BEYOND in my postpartum care and check ins. She got my placenta encapsulated in a timely manner once again. She continued and continues to show so much care. I could never and would not ever ask for another midwife. I can wholeheartedly say meeting her was truly beyond a blessing, and I wish I had her for my other two previous births. She is one of the most loving, compassionate, super knowledgeable, selfless, helpful, funny, patient, supportive, understanding and so much more of a wonderful woman I know. She embodies everything a woman needs when they want to conceive, they're pregnant and/or giving birth. She adds a whole different experience to midwifery, Mackenzie is that gem that you hope you stumble upon. If you are or know anyone expecting or wanting to, and/or pregnant; I highly, highly, highly recommend Mackenzie. My family loves her, it's impossible not to. read more

I am not normally one to read entire yelp reviews, so for my fellow bullet pointers here are the key things, if you are enticed -- read on! Mackenzie deserves far more than 5 stars. If you're in search of a midwife, she is the one. 1. My family and I got pregnant for the first time in 2018 and in 2019. Mackenzie was with us for both deliveries. 2. With our first pregnancy, at 30+ weeks. Mackenzie saved us after we were dumped by an unfit midwife who was untruthful and had questionable practices. A blessing in disguise. 3. She has a wonderful balance of holistic care and scientific care. My husband is in the medical bubble and appreciated the ease of communication when he asked specific questions. She didn't skip a beat. 4. I believe the laws of time that we all abide by hold no power over her (sarcasm, but not really). Her flexibility is superb, she never makes you feel rushed in your appointments, and she has never exhibited weariness. Ever. 5. She informs you about everything, medically, holistically, spiritually, emotionally, mentally, physically. She empowers you to make the most knowledgeable decisions. 6. She thinks of everyone. Mom, baby, partner, other kids, grandparents, in-laws, family pets. Shes a big picture kind of person while simultaneously being very detail oriented. 7. Shes pure sunshine to be around. 8. She truly loves what she does, you see and feel it in the way she cares for you and your child. I would be more than happy to include way more detail if anyone has questions!!!! Shes so worth it. read more

She didn't just help me deliver my baby, she gave my partner and I all the tools and support we needed before, during, and after delivery so that we could care for our family holistically. I would choose Mackenzie again, and again. She is, in my professional opinion, the very best. Erin Berquist BSN, RN, PHN, CWON read more

Mackenzie provided the best of the best with her care for me, my baby Chadwick, and for my family. Prenatal appointments were more like talking with a friend who had the knowledge and wisdom to make sure my baby and I were on the right track for a healthy pregnancy. She has a way of knowing exactly what you need and adapting to your needs, concerns and personality. I ended up needing my gallbladder removed at 22 weeks and she was the one who helped me through that and even came and gave me an extra check up after the surgery. I felt like she was a friend I could count on, not just a doctor who sees me as a pay check. She really, really cares about our family, beyond the usual needs of prenatal care. The majority of visits were done in the comfort of my own home, so I didn't have to pack up my other 3 young kiddos and go anywhere, but when you do go to her office, it is very encoring and family friendly, especially for little ones. My labor itself was quick, and she gave me the confidence I needed in myself to have my baby. I had a retained placenta, and she was wise and knowledgeable in handling that as well. Three months later, I have a healthy, 15lb boy and I'm doing great and she's still there for me should I need her. This was my fourth baby, and I will definitely be having her at my side for all my future babies. Do yourself a favor and make Mackenzie an honorary member of your family as you go through the journey of pregnancy, birth and postpartum care. It will be a decision you'll be glad you made. Thank you Mackenzie! read more

Working with Mackenzie for the birth of my fourth baby was the best experience I could have asked for...and didn't even know that I wanted!! When we found out we were pregnant, I fully intended to give birth at the hospital. Due to various issues with the hospital, we found ourselves seeking another option at 32 weeks gestation. However, we could not afford a birth center, so we were suddenly contemplating home birth. My husband was VERY reluctant to the idea, and even I was apprehensive. However, from the first phone call with Mackenzie, and the subsequent home visits, she put both of us at ease. Even though there was a possible breach complication involved, Mackenzie took us on without hesitation. Her home visits were glorious...no more trying to find childcare for my older 3 kiddos for every prenatal appointment. Everything was always peaceful and relaxed. The birth itself could not have been better! Mackenzie made herself available to me, as always, despite having other appointments. She was extremely competent, professional, and always reassuring. Even when I thought my contractions were going to overtake me. She spoke belief into me and bolstered my confidence with gentle compassion. And, just like her website promised, after the birth the only evidence left behind was the sweet newborn in my arms. She and her associate took care of everything. And the follow-up aftercare was equally thorough. When it comes to something as big and important as the care of the expectant mother and birth of a precious baby, I cannot recommend Mackenzie Rose enough! She is truly a blessing!! read more

Mackenzie helped me every step of the way through my second and third pregnancies. She gave me safe, at home care, and when I had a very challenging pregnancy and delivery with my son, she guided and supported me with calm, strength and wisdom so that I was able to bring him into the world safely in my own bedroom. Her postpartum care was just as thorough and informative as her prenatal care. We are forever grateful. Thank you for helping me have the birth experience I was hoping for Mackenzie. read more

We had the most amazing experience with Mackenzie for my first birth. I felt so heard during our long personalized prenatal appointments in the comfort of my home, and by the time the birth was upon us she felt like a part of our family. Even my dogs had grown to look forward to her visits. Her calm, reassuring presence made the birth itself feel like a well choreographed dance, and I felt so safe and supported due to her knowledge and experience. The information provided during our several postpartum visits was so invaluable, and she truly went above and beyond to provide us with everything we could need and more. She had a way of not just doling out information, but providing us with knowledge that made my husband and I both feel so confident in the care of our newborn during those early days. Mackenzie is a truly caring individual, and choosing her for your midwifery care would be the greatest decision. read more

Our experience with Mackenzie Rose Midwifery was outstanding. Mackenzie was able to draw my blood for all of my lab tests and help me get in a comfortable position so I didn't pass out. Through pregnancy, Mackenzie was my rock. She helped me with with physical discomfort as, as well as providing wonderful emotional support through a very difficult living situation. When it came time for delivery, she helped me keep my mind focused on staying positive. When things took an unexpected turn Mackenzie moved quickly and efficiently to take care of our baby. Both midwives worked together to provide excellent care for my new born and me. Postpartum care was the best. Of course I was no longer pregnant and had my precious babe in my arms, and while I recovered from delivery the midwives made me the most delicious breakfast and tea! I could not get enough tea, and the eggs were simply the best eggs I had ever tasted. The moment after delivery still brings tears to my eyes. My midwives were my angels, and my child a miracle. read more

Mackenzie came to us after we realized SEVERAL negative hospital birth experiences weren't the path we wanted to take for our final birth experience. Our monthly eventually weekly appts were at our home (imagine that?!) and sometimes several hours long. Until our questions (that prompted more questions) were thoroughly combed thru. Mackenzie offered any and all options (from the ones I was all too familiar with in a traditional setting to the less toxic versions I never knew of) we had a few "is this it" moments of which she was ready to make the trip out for peace of mind. My actual birth was a total of about 4 hours. Middle of the night style and she was there lightening fast. Stealth quiet in setting up and in true Mackenzie fashion prepared for the wait. If I could do all of my births all over again it would be with her every time. I mourn the loss of this experience with my others. The education and support me and my spouse received over the course of our pregnancy was more than I ever could have asked for. Informed and educated during the whole process. Every birthing mother needs a Mackenzie on her team. Our postpartum was a challenge. She did all of things from nursing (mastitis + jaundice baby) to wound care, cleaned and changed etc. above and beyond. I am forever grateful for this beautiful soul and her contribution to our family. We delivered safely at home with her and her teams assistance, as planned. read more
