Every time I went in for an appointment she always took her time and made me feel so comfortable. She truly cares about her patients and the babies, she is so kind and supportive during labor and made me feel so empowered.

My first birth was at her birthing center, & my second was at home. Both of these experiences were life changing for me. First, because they made me a mother. But second, because Karni helped me to realize what natural birth could be, & that I didn't have to be afraid of what my body could do. I feel blessed to have connected with her when I was pregnant with my first & didn't know what kind of birth I wanted - I just knew I didn't want what the western world has normalized for births, unless interventions became absolutely necessary. The first day I visited her birthing center, my mind had been made up & I knew I would give birth there. She told me to visit several midwives/birthing centers so I could make an informed decision but secretly I never did... best decision I've ever made. Me & my husband are forever grateful that she's our midwife & we look forward to birthing all of our future babies within her orb of power, however many we are blessed to have!

Let me start by saying Jen is absolutely amazing! She is kindhearted, genuine and compassionate!…read moreShe truly loves what she does and it shows in her work. We interviewed a lot of doulas before deciding to hire Jen. I had honestly already selected a doula I wanted and almost cancelled the consultation appointment with Jen but something told me to keep it and I am so glad I did. After chatting with her I knew she was the one. Her energy and calming voice was exactly what I knew I needed! Jen has been there for me EVERY step of the way on this wild rollercoaster to motherhood! She is always just a text or call away and the amount of time I've called her and spent an hour or more on the phone with her just crying, venting, laughing or bouncing thoughts with her. She's quickly become one of my dear friends! At my birth she was pivotal, and kept me calm by helping with breathing tactics and pain management tools. She even helped me push my baby out. I am so grateful to have walked this journey and to keep walking this journey with you Jen! Thankfully we also added on her postpartum package and she has been spoiling me with yummy meals, foot and back massages, sitz baths and loving on my son. Jen is an absolute gem and I highly recommend her! Oh and I almost forgot she captured my birth beautifully too with photos and videos. And the education she gives during her prenatal visits are like nothing else any other doula does. Most doulas start there visits in late 3rd trimester and show up at the birth. Jen walked along this ENTIRE journey with me. I am so grateful to her for everything!

It was so nice and I highly recommend her

Lynzie was absolutely incredible. She went above and beyond in every way, not just caring for our…read morebaby with so much love, but also supporting us as parents. Our daughter was a NICU grad, so those early weeks felt especially intense, and Lynzie handled everything with such calm confidence. She was a huge help with all things lactation and latch, which made a meaningful difference right away. She kept thoughtful daily notes, was always on time, and brought a steady, capable presence into our home. Beyond that, she taught us so much about sleep and newborn rhythms, and gave us real confidence as new parents. She also checked in on us, which meant a lot during a pretty overwhelming time. And on top of everything, she is just a genuinely fun, warm person to be around. We feel so lucky to have had her.

From the very first night she was in our home, it was clear we were in the presence of someone uniquely gifted in her work. What sets Lynzi apart is her extraordinary ability to provide expert care while maintaining impeccable boundaries. She is warm, nurturing, and wholly trustworthy, yet never intrusive--an incredibly rare balance. She seamlessly supported our family while never becoming a distraction or disrupting our rhythm. Her quiet confidence and deep knowledge of newborn behavior gave us peace of mind and the invaluable gift of rest. We always felt that our baby was in the most capable and caring hands. Lynzi took initiative without overstepping, anticipated needs before we voiced them, and brought a sense of calm and consistency to what can otherwise be an overwhelming stage of life. We are endlessly grateful for her presence during those early weeks. If you are considering working with Lynzi, you can do so with full confidence--she is a true professional, and anyone would be lucky to have her support.

I knew I really wanted to breastfeed my baby and to enjoy it with minimal stress. So I hired a lactation consultant , Mor ! She made all the difference in my breastfeeding journey. She even helped my baby out of jaundice with a feeding schedule that worked. She also helped my baby gain her birth weight back by day 9 ! Mor is very knowledgeable in her field, kind, patient, and has great bedside manner. She also was available to answer any questions I had and sent demo videos as needed. Thanks to her, my breastfeeding journey has been enjoyable and successful.

Although it was a bit of an uphill battle given I had to delay breastfeeding from the start, she managed to help me breastfeed until my baby was 6month! what a relief!

Thanks to Mor, I'll have a nice stash in the freezer soon for my moms night out. Mor understands how breasts work, she is supportive and kind, she is always there to answer all your questions and she will go out of her way to make sure you get the results you want!!

I watched "the business of giving birth" (2008 documentary) a decade ago and this was the start of potentially being open to this option (midwife/birth center/home birth). (Highly recommend this documentary, wish there were more!!!) Robyn is phenomenal. She is an expert. She knows what she's doing and is an excellent midwife and human. What a blessing My experience was her being extremely responsive and supportive. Ask ALL the questions!!! Sometimes we don't know what all to ask which is okay too, she informs you on so much. Especially home aftercare. Regardless of what decision one makes on giving birth it's a magical and empowering one. Sending health and happiness to all mothers and expecting mothers. If anyone has questions I'd love to be an advocate for this hospital alternative so please send a message.

In one hour, Virginia helped me transform it into a triumph. I now appreciate that I intuitively knew exactly what to do to birth my baby, including being open to help when the time called for it. Receiving love turned out to be an integral part of motherhood! I recently gave birth to our second daughter, and when we encountered a true obstetric emergency, my husband and I readily accepted the assistance we needed to birth her safely at home. Not only was I not traumatized by the situation, I feel completely empowered by her birth! Thank you, Virginia, for helping me to honor my inner love warrior!

It helped us to really connect in a spiritual way before the baby came. I had no idea what having a baby would be like but I used many of the pain coping techniques she offered and I managed to make it thru 24 hours of back labor with no epidural! She went on to be an amazing contributor to my successful breastfeeding experience. I was so distraught in the first week because I was having so many issues with latch, confidence, timing, etc. Like most first times Moms- I was having a very difficult time nursing. She came to my house and helped me to understand the logistics of breastfeeding. After her visit my confidence soared, my heart was at ease, and I never had a problem with breastfeeding again! Never had to supplement another bottle! In fact, almost 2 years later I am still successfully nursing. Also, she knew that I was new to the area so she offered to hook me up with a like-minded Mama-to-be who she thought I would hit it off with. Well, sure enough, she's been a great friend of mine ever since and we love having playdates with our little ones! I feel forever grateful to Virginia and am so lucky to know her. She truly is an amazing woman, and I HIGHLY recommend any of the services she has to offer!

They are kind, knowledgeable, and supportive, but the front office and administrative side has been consistently frustrating. The administrative staff is disorganized and unprofessional. They frequently mix up appointment times, give conflicting information, and make even simple tasks feel unnecessarily difficult. They don't use email or an online portal to send updates, test results, or appointment confirmations, which makes it almost impossible to keep track of anything. Everything has to be done by phone, and the communication is often curt or dismissive. Another major frustration is that any time I need bloodwork, I have to schedule a completely separate appointment with a third-party lab instead of being able to do it in-office. This makes routine prenatal care far more inconvenient than it needs to be. I really wanted to have a good experience here, especially since the clinical care from the midwives has been positive, but the front-office management has caused so much stress and confusion that I'm choosing to switch practices. I hope they improve their administrative processes and communication in the future.
