Birth Attendance with Birth Keeper Martha

For homebirth attendance I offer everything that's listed in my freebirth prep offering and I'm on call to attend and support you for your birth and immediate postpartum as an experienced birth witness and wise woman.

First, we create a trust based relationship at our pre-birth connection sessions.

Next, I support and witness you at your birth space. After you've birthed, I stay until you and your newborn are both fed and snuggled in. No time limits here.

And, I offer postpartum support for one to two weeks post birth, daytime 9 to 5. Generally these sessions are two to three hours but longer if needed.

MORE

- Birth tub use

- Placenta encapsulation

- I may go to the hospital with you if you decide to transfer

- Traveling birth attendant (additional fee).
