From our first phone call to our 6 week postpartum check-up the entire team was caring and attentive and amazingly gracious given the obvious drama that comes with pregnancy. They are truly called to a beautiful service and their bedside manner and humanity with their mamas in unmatched; certainly not something that I believe one could find in a stuffy hospital setting. Because of the women at Sacred Birth we were able to welcome our beautiful baby boy safely and peacefully into the world in the comfort of our own home. I am high strung and a bit of a stress bucket and was especially through my pregnancy but the women with Sacred Birth went out of their way to bring me back down to earth when I needed, supported me every step of the way and truly saw me as another human being and mama to be and not just a patient on a flip chart. They didn't rush our labor at all and took great care to check on our baby boy after every push. We got a beautiful tour of the placenta and plenty of time for the rest of the blood from it to finish loading our baby boy with all of the iron and oxygen that he needed. No quick clamping and cutting with these ladies! I also love how involved my husband was able to be! He was at nearly every appointment and they included him in all of our discussions and answered all of the questions that he posed to them. They suggested reading material which we both benefited from tremendously and they really empowered us to be a birthing team in our own unique and intuitive way which we are now able to carry through into our parenting. I truly miss the entire team and honestly wish I was still able to see them every couple of weeks! I truly cannot say enough about this incredible team and if we end up having another little member of the family they will be the first call we make.

She made my husband and I incredibly comfortable with the idea of having a homebirth for our first child. What I love most about her were that our appointments were never rushed, she was knowledgeable in answering all of our questions and she cared not only for my baby but for me as well. Not just my physical health but my mental and emotional well-being. She listened attentively at my fears and concerns, was a great shoulder to cry on and provided resources to help. There is no doubt in my mind because of her that I was able to have a successful home-birth! look forward to being under her incredible care for my second birth!

I am new to the area, and out of all the doctors and midwives I had talked to, this place was definitely my favorite! They listened to my concerns, helped me with my birth plan, and really let me be in control over all my options and decisions. They helped guide and prep me for the natural unmedicated birth that I wanted, and gave me plenty of information to take home and look over. Pregnancy and delivery can be an overwhelming experience, but they made it so much easier. When it came to delivery, I wouldn't have been able to follow through with my birth plan without them. They kept me going when I felt like giving up, and they made sure that they did all they could to keep me and the baby healthy. I am forever grateful for their hard work and patience

My husband and I arrived about 10 minutes before our appointment time and were greeted by the lovely receptionist. We sat quietly in the reception area until our appointment time promptly at 9:30. The ultrasound room was spacious and comfortable with a big TV screen. Fabio was professional and walked us through everything we saw. Getting to see our baby's face with such detail was worth every penny. We got sent home with almost 100 digital pictures that included video, 5 printed 3D pictures and about 10 printed 2D pictures. It's such a lovely family-run business. The location is easily off I-4 in an office building with plenty of parking and easy to find on the second floor. It's an experience my husband and I will treasure. I highly recommend Moms To Be Ultrasound!

Robin (Licensed Midwife) is super sweet, soft spoken, always has a natural remedy for little symptoms throughout the time. The receptionist, Kat, is ON IT and also super sweet every time you arrive and is super helpful with anything insurance/money/ documentation - and she genuinely has your back with all of that stuff. I was blessed with a (relatively speaking) easy pregnancy but Robin answered 2/2 of my late night SOS calls that I had during that time frame. And when I called thinking labor was starting she was ready to get there and support me, no hesitation, despite it being a seemingly fast timeline (and thank goodness she trusted me and was ready, because I was 8-9cm by the time I got there). Overall, I wouldn't trade this experience for the world. Thank you, Robin & Kat! Love you, ladies!

But of course when it comes to babies and pregnancy, the amount of information is overwhelming and it's hard to find reliable sources. Balanced Baby is a great resource for new and even experienced mamas who need any guidance, which sometimes your OB/Midwife/Pediatrician can't provide. The Baby On Board class taught me (and my husband) TONS of useful information- not just for labor and birth but for everything you need to know after having a baby! The class covered lactation, breastfeeding, bottle feeding, labor techniques, birth plan ideas, registry recommendations, tummy time ideas, and more. As a bonus, they served a delicious breakfast and gave each of us a gift bag to take home! This is hands down the best class to take as a parent-to-be. They also offer other classes for after baby is born! These ladies are experts in their specialties and have tons of recommendations, based on their own personal and professional experiences. Anything they aren't certified in, they know someone who is and can easily connect you to someone who can help. Again, I can't recommend this place enough for all parents!

From…read morethe very beginning, both Chelsea and Heather were warm, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to making sure we felt confident and supported throughout the entire birth process. Chelsea ended up being our Doula when I went into labor and she went above and beyond, showing up at the hospital and being exactly what we needed in the moment. Her calm, reassuring presence made all the difference. We felt well-prepared going into the birth thanks to the time she spent with us beforehand, answering every question and walking us through what to expect. When labor began, we felt ready--and during the birth, her support and knowledge were invaluable. What we really appreciated was the ability to reach out with questions both before and after the birth too. Having that level of access and guidance was incredibly comforting during such a life-changing time. If you're considering hiring a doula, this was the best decision we made and I can't recommend them enough! We will definitely be using that again.

They also helped get him set up with a reproductive urologist to work through his stuff.

I understand my insurance doesn't cover this, but $700 for a 30 minutes chat on basic information is absurd. Don't make the same mistake I did. Do your own research and decide if you want to freeze your eggs before ever going near a clinic.
