Midwife Riverside Near Me

4worldlovers:
Our mission is to provide a safe environment and supportive team so that women can birth in the way that they choose.


​To be able to provide respectful, compassionate care for all pregnant women that desire a natural birth.

Imagine feeling safe and supported as you bring your baby into this world.

The reason this mission is so important is because how a mother feels about her birth will effect how she feels about that child—and that lasts much longer than just the labor. It lasts for the rest of their lives. She’s going to bond with that child, and that child is going to bond with her. Remember, the child is also having an experience of birth. The baby is coming into the world gently—is being treated very gently and respectfully during their birth experience—and that makes all the difference! This is going to form their whole concept of the other people that they meet in their life. It’s foundational. As we now know through psychology, the birth process is going to affect them for the rest of their lives. So our mission is not only to help women have the birth they want, but to help more children come into this world with a solid foundation in life—by giving them a peaceful and happy birth.

From our initial consultation onward, Kate was always sure to spend extra time with me, thoroughly answer my questions, and treat me with the skill of a trained professional yet the gentleness and tenderness of a close friend.
