Birthing at home, safely
Thoughtfully, deliberately, and with the best interests of everyone in mind, we have developed parameters for our services.
- We only accept women who are low-risk, ensuring that our clients and their babies are in the best hands possible.
- We only accept women who take ownership of their health by doing their best to make healthy food and lifestyle choices and work as partners with our guidance.
- At our practice, we only accept clients within a 15-mile radius to ensure that we can respond promptly.
- We also limit our client intake to 4 homebirths per month, so that we can provide the highest level of attention and care to each of our patients.
- Because Kim is allergic to cats we cannot take on clients who have house cats.
