    Unfortunately, my birth did not quite go as planned and we ended up having to transfer to UVA for intervention.

They are responsive and so incredibly professional and attentive throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum time. The prenatal appointments are an hour long, so you have time to truly address all of your concerns, there's no rushing off to the next thing, During birth, they are present, supportive, and competent, with all of the medical and interpersonal skills you need. They know when to step back, and when to step forward. Can't recommend them highly enough!

It was wonderful to know that the provider I met with many times would be the one to deliver my baby. Hospitals often just have whoever is on call be present at the delivery, but knowing it would be Kelly was a wonderful. It was great to be able to text with her in labor while we figured out the timing and have a follow up with her soon after the birth and again 6 weeks later. She provided information on how to stay healthy in pregnancy to reduce any complications and was very helpful postpartum. I hope to deliver our next baby with Kelly.

    My daughter (I'll call her Jeanmarie) chose Brookhaven for her childbirth, and she made an…read moreexcellent choice. Everyone was attentive not only to my daughter's needs, but the father's and mine as well. I expected to be seen as an intrusion or a distraction; I couldn't have been more wrong. There were no nurses bustling about, no strangers coming and going, and no smell of disinfectant. Jeanmarie was never alone in the room, one of the midwives was there at all times. Sometimes offering advice or encouragement, sometimes sitting quietly in a corner, sometimes reminding Jeanmarie to loosen her muscles or breathe deeply or have a sip of water. It was all about my daughter and her baby, not about fetal monitors or updating her chart. (Everything was charted, but quietly and not in lieu of tending to the new mom.) The room was warm, comfortable, and clean, and there was an atmosphere of calm anticipation. Jeanmarie chose the position most comfortable and productive for her. She was encouraged to vocalize during contractions. She was encouraged to nibble and sip during labor, which shocked and thrilled me. (My first labor was 36 hours. I was not allowed to change position or get out of bed, and taking a bite of cracker or a sip of water was strictly forbidden. What a fantastic difference from Jeanmarie's compassionate caregivers!) I was concerned about the 'what-ifs' - what if she starts to bleed, what if she loses consciousness, what if her birth canal was too small? They have a plan in place for anything unexpected and are watching everything more closely than they let on. Their priority was Jeanmarie's comfort, progress, and well-being. Thank you, Brookhaven staff. Forgive me, I've already forgotten your names but I will never forget how pleased and impressed I am with my only daughter's first childbirth experience. Grandma R.

    I felt like a QUEEN birthing at Queen City birth center!! I gave birth four months ago to my first…read morebaby with Midwife Erin and her birth assistant Katie. Right from the start of my care around 12 weeks I felt so comfortable, cared for, heard and respected by both Erin and Heather. They were so good about providing me with all of the up to date data to make my informed decisions, they respected every choice I made and I was able to have a wonderful uncomplicated pregnancy with their guidance. If I ever had an issue Erin and Heather had about ten different holistic-minded approaches and even some more medical ones! I felt like I was able to be "crunchy" if I needed to be but also accept procedures and medicine if we needed something more. My appointments were an hour long and there was no needless intervention, nothing invasive like swabs or exams unless I actually needed or asked for it. I felt like I actually got to know my midwives, and be comfortable with them which is so important for giving birth. We also took the birthing classes with them which is a MUST! They had me so prepared, I was actually excited to give birth! And the birth went SO smooth - both my husband and I have said so many times, "we can't believe people would do this any other way!!!" Dim lights, quiet music playing, oil diffusing, TENS unit- Erin and Katie let me do my thing and labor in peace (which is a VERY stark contrast from laboring in the hospital) and when the time came to push let me tell you - YOU MUST TRY WATER BIRTH! The tub was such a strong pain reliever I was able to relax and push my baby out in only 45 mins! I felt soooooo taken care of the whole time it was amazing. After I gave birth my Golden hour was respected, my baby was placed on me and not aggressively rubbed or made to cry, it was just as birth should be - quiet, calm and beautiful. Erin did such a good job of caring for my newborn, we were all packed up and ready to go just a few hours later! No unjustifiably long hospital stay, no bright lights, no one barging in every 15 mins to check this and that, just calm. Quiet. Beautiful. Birth. If you have any curiosity about using a birth center, TRY IT! I already look forward to giving birth here again!!

    Erin is a phenomenal midwife! She is very thorough and transparent with everything that she does…read more My husband and I did a water birth at home for our second baby. As soon as we were ready for her to arrive she was there immediately, setting up the birthing tub with her assistant. The two of them worked wonderfully together, allowing my husband and I to get through the contractions in our own space. They kept the environment calm and collected. We ended up having the birth we had hoped for. Our appointments at her birth center were always pleasant. She has a section of toys for the little ones which helped keep my toddler distracted during the visit, I could watch her and also pay attention. My husband and I both recommend Erin. She's great!
