Traditionally, midwives were not just birth attendants, they also attended to women during other important stages of life.  They celebrated triumphs and assisted with challenges, offered strength when it was needed and provided comfort when it was called on.

 

 

Whether providing you with: maternity care, well-woman care, conception counseling, parenting support, natural  family planning education, informed education/advocacy, menarche/menopause support, or midwifery training, we strive to preserve the midwife tradition  and...

 

 

To merge the heart and soul of traditional midwifery w/ the standards of professional care.

 

To passionately commit ourselves positive birth outcomes.

 

To provide dignified well-woman and maternity care.

 

To provide women with a sense of community.

 

 

As a physician, I highly recommend Shell as a midwife, we could use more like her!   ~ Dr. Barker, Sedona ~
