Midwifery ServicesLa Rosa Midwifery offers individualized care serving low-risk, healthy women at home. Each woman and each pregnancy is unique and deserves individualized and comprehensive care. I strive to build a team with my clients and give informed consent to ensure that they can make the right choices for their family, as I believe that building trust between care provider and family during the prenatal period is an integral part of the process. It is also important that you as a client and as a family feel like you can ask as many or as little questions as you want and that you feel heard throughout the entire process.
The Midwives Model of Care is based on the fact that pregnancy and birth are normal life processes. The Midwives Model of Care includes:

The Birth Once you are in active labor, your midwife will arrive at your home with either another Licensed Midwife and/or a trained birth assistant. This will be determined by ongoing communication between you and your midwife that begins with early labor. We will stay approximately 3-6 hours after the birth, including until both mother and baby are stable and ready to settle into bed for their well deserved postpartum nap. What to expect:
Post-Partum Care This is a time of transition, where many things are changing and returning to homeostasis, whether you are welcoming your first child, or going from a family of five to six. I am here to answer all those little questions that inevitably come up and to ensure the health and wellbeing of you and your new baby during this time. My care will continue through your 6th week post partum, but hopefully a relationship that lasts a lifetime has been established. There is nothing I love more than having my clients send pictures of baby's growth and coming in for little visits throughout the years. What to expect:
"Birth is as safe as life gets"
Well-Woman/Well-Person CareMidwives not only offer prenatal and birth services we also offer well-person services. Many persons prefer the individualized, attentive and gentle care that midwives offer and report that they feel more at ease and comfortable with this option.
Well person care consists of:
"There is a secret in our culture, and its not that birth is painful - Its that women are strong."
