Bringing Birth Home
Midwives value the innate wisdom of the body throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. A’Maya and Alia see that their role as a midwives is to provide individualized care, education and support to families throughout the childbearing year. We will prioritize the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of both the birthing person and the baby. We believe that midwifery is the crossroads between magic and medicine. One of the tenets of midwifery care is shared-decision making which combines the client’s values, the midwife’s clinical expertise, and high-quality research. We uphold this principle by balancing aspects of traditional midwifery care with a data-driven, evidence-informed approach. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are vulnerable and sacred phases that are to be approached with respectful and culturally congruent care. In all phases of care, we celebrate the unique and individual qualities, values and beliefs of the client in order to curate an individualized experience.
