Hearthside Midwifery
Supporting your pregnancy and birth in the place that you feel most comfortable, your home.
Welcome
Our approach is family centered with an emphasis on education, safety and trust in your body.
Your certified nurse midwife, Heather, has extensive training and experience.
All in home prenatal visits are never rushed and the whole family can be involved.
Our practice is intentionally small so that you benefit from personalized, loving care.
Care is respectful and empowering with full shared decision making on standard options and testing.
If there is a rare emergency or deviation from normal, we know when to intervene to keep you and your baby as safe as possible.
We are so excited that you are here and we look forward to meeting you!
Our Services
We offer full-spectrum midwifery care from your first prenatal visit through your six-week postpartum checkup, all in the comfort of your own home.
