img5The Midwives Model of Care

The Midwives Model of Care is based on the fact that pregnancy and birth are normal life processes. It includes:

Monitoring the physical, psychological and social well-being of the mother throughout the child bearing cycle
Providing the mother with individualized education, counseling, and prenatal care, continuous hands-on assistance during labor and delivery, and postpartum support
Minimizing technological interventions
Identifying and referring women who require obstetrical attention

The application of this woman-centered model of care has been proven to reduce the incidence of birth injury, trauma and cesarean section.

Testimonial

With Sue, you really get to know each other throughout your pregnancy, so you feel completely comfortable. A bond of trust is built, which is very important, because you can actually trust that she has you and your baby’s best interests in mind, and that she really cares. I am so grateful I found Sue and decided to have a home birth, despite my disbelief I could do it. (Sue was very reassuring when I doubted myself). I even got my insurance to cover the cost by doing a little advanced planning and appealing. I really miss being pregnant and having my monthly office visits with Sue; it was truly an enjoyable experience!
