I first met Tiffanie during my first birth. I was using another midwife at the time and she kept calling on Tiffanie for help & advice during our appointments- When my original midwife tried taking my blood for labs but kept messing up & re-poking me, she called Tiffanie & she was able to do it super painlessly & quickly in a very calm way. Then, When I was having heavy bleeding about an hour after giving birth, my original midwife called Tiffanie & she arrived at my door soon after to help get things under control- again being very calm & adding lots of peace to the stressful situation. After those experiences, I knew I had to hire her immediately after finding out we were pregnant with baby #2 years later. I wasn't gonna chance it with anyone else this time around! Tiffanie is super genuine & is truly obsessed with birth, babies & helping families have their optimal experience & care. My daughter LOVED coming along to our appointments & enjoyed learning all about what midwives do. Our time with Tiffanie has given my daughter a once in a lifetime experience of learning about the sacred time of pregnancy & the power of physiological birth. I've recommended her to several friends for homebirths & they too have had great experiences. We've since moved out of state, but I'd go as far to fly her out & pay for her to be there for any future births. One of the best hands down. Love her so much!

From the moment I met Tiffanie I knew she was the perfect midwife for me. With this being my second…read morebirth, (my first home birth) I knew I wanted someone with a kind, gentle spirit yet would simultaneously carry themselves in such a way that would allow me to fully trust in their ability and qualifications as a trained professional. I immediately knew Tiffanie was this perfect combination of gentleness and calmness and yet confident and sure in her experience and training. I'm so unbelievably grateful for the entire midwifery services provided by Mother's Choice Midwifery from start to finish. From every prenatal appointment to labor/delivery to postpartum care, I was continually supported and guided through every stage of my prenatal and postnatal care. I'm so grateful for midwives that trust the birthing process and the woman's ability to birth her baby. During my 41st week of pregnany my baby must have flipped without me knowing because while in labor we learned that baby had gone breech! When Tiffanie arrived at my home, I was asked if I wanted to be checked and told prior to the exam that based on the meconium coming out that she believed baby was breech. To all of our surprise, my baby indeed had gone breech! Tiffanie let us know that if we went to a hospital it would be an immediate c-section. Ironically, she had just received even further training on breech births. We went over our options and any potential risks involved and my husband and I were left to privately discuss what we wanted to do. Because I was fully dilated and more importantly, Tiffanie's absolute confidence in my ability to birth my baby in the safety of my home we decided to stay home and I'm so unbelievably grateful we did! About an hour and a half after Tiffanie arrived and checked me, our perfect little breech baby girl was born!!! Such an amazing experience and testimony to God's perfect plan! I cannot say enough good things about Mother's Choice Midwifery and I would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!

After being released from my OB for not showing up for my appointments, it was time to look into…read moreother options. I wish I could say it was for more noble reasons that I came upon Allyson. My husband is the smart fellow who had researched the history of birthing and knew a home birth would be right for us. But the first midwife we interviewed took a while to answer basic questions such as, "What complications would necessitate us leaving the house for the hospital?" When asked the same question above, Allyson immediately listed several instances. She even brought out a doll and a 3D model of the pelvic bones to demonstrate. That's my kind of professional! Direct, organized, and eager to share her knowledge. I knew Allyson would be the perfect midwife for me. Like most women, I did not experience any complications during the natural birth process. Allyson and her apprentice, Romina, expertly and lovingly guided us through 18 hours of labor in the peace and quiet of my downtown apartment. I was 36 at the time of delivery, which is considered high risk, but everything went as smooth as it could. Post birth experiences with Allyson were also invaluable. She is as concerned for the mother as much as the baby, which is a level of service unique to midwives. Allyson's post birth home visits are a luxury I wish every family could experience. My experience with Allyson has changed my perspective on medical care, in general. I feel much more empowered as a patient, and know what good care looks like. Allyson spent one hour, I repeat, one hour with me during every visit. This provides ample time for me to digest information and to ask questions. Unlike the OB I had visited previously, Allyson proactively provides the information you don't know you need. Through Allyson I have also learned about home remedies, herbs and more.

The care that I received from Allyson Butler is the reason why my son is completely healthy and…read morehappy. She made sure that I was having a low risk pregnancy before working with me. She involved my significant other in the entire pregnancy, made sure that my labs were normal, that my baby's labs were normal, that I had whatever kind of birth I wanted and even if on that day it had changed, it didn't matter. She had a ton of reading, audio and video materials to loan to mothers-to-be from her library. She also recommended classes that we could take to learn more about Lamaze, breathing technique, or breastfeeding. She had tips for how to cut baby's nails, how to get started on cloth diapers, and how to care for myself after the birth. I told her I didn't want an epidural and that I at first wanted a water birth. I ended up doing my prelabor in the bathtub then laboring on the bathroom floor in my own house. She was supportive of all the animal grunting sounds I was making and cheered me on. She gave me olive oil to rub on the baby's head, gave me fresh coconut juice when I needed rejuvenation, took some memorable pictures for me and my new family, counted his fingers, toes, took his measurements, had my significant other weigh the baby, and she even did the footprints. She was great with prenatal and postpartum care. She told me what diet I should be on, but also that I should just eat whatever I felt was right. She encouraged me to be me as much as I could be me during the pregnancy with respect to having a healthy pregnancy. She gave me suggestions during my seventh month as to what exercises I could do in the pool since the treadmill was starting to become too hard on my knees. Whenever she wanted to incorporate a teaching moment for other doulas or learning midwives, she would always ask for permission first. She respected me, my son, my significant other and our beliefs. She gave me lactation consultation and helped my son to latch on. She was great about scheduling if anything ever came up and fit me in even when she seemed like she couldn't. She was always reachable and was never more than a few hours away by phone or email. I am glad that I went with her versus going to a doctor or a hospital. Even when I had thought about having the birth in the hospital, she was still supportive of my decision and was ready to do the patient-transfer paperwork and then was supportive again when I decided that the hospital thing was not my cup of tea. For my hundredth review on Yelp, she's whom I'm writing about and Great Expectations Midwifery Care is what I care about. She did an awesome job and if I were to have other children in the future, I would definitely go back to her. I would recommend her to any of my friends and family.

I don't know where to start. I had an awesome experience with everyone that works with Well Rounded…read moreMama. I wanted to have a hospital birth but keep things as natural as possible with limited interventions. Many of the doulas I met with made me feel guilty about the ideas I had of an unmedicated birth in the hospital setting. I found Jillian through Well Rounded Mama. She was very supportive of my plan and was more optimistic than others I had met with. Jillian was the best resource I could have asked for during my pregnancy, labor and postpartum period as a doula. Her calming personality is professional yet so personable. She knows her craft and is an expert in her field. I took a breastfeeding class with Rory a couple weeks prior to having the baby. I was initially debating if it was necessary but came out of the course with a wealth of knowledge and learned so much more than I thought. I would highly recommend any mama looking to breastfeed take this course, we'll worth the time and Rory was a great instructor. All around, would recommend Well Rounded Mama as an awesome resource for any expecting mother!

Friend Lauren C. recommended this spot to me when I was considering hiring a doula for my first…read morebirth. Their website is helpful and informative, and we were able to submit a form to be contacted - we met Jasmine on site to hear more about their doula services and other offerings. If you know early on that you're interested in using a doula, contact them sooner rather than later, as they have Open House events where you can meet their various providers to see who might be a good fit for you. I ended up getting induced a week later and did not end up using a doula - while my delivery went just fine without, it's worth looking into if you can afford it, and there is evidence that their involvement can shorten labor and improve outcomes. As first-time (and probably only-time parents), we were more concerned about having someone able to fully explain options to us and advocate for what we wanted in the hospital environment. That being said, WRM has more than just doula services - they also have midwives and a lactation consultant, as well as several classes offered onsite that you can take before, during and after your pregnancy. My husband and I took their 2-hour Newborn Care Class and it was helpful to hear the most important info and ask questions right before we had our baby. The class included a helpful book with free access to an app, and was led by their lactation consultant, Rory. It also served as a good way to get to know her in case we ended up needing LC services.

When I became pregnant with my first child, my Cobra lapsed and I was dropped from insurance…read more After weeks of fighting to get my insurance back and not receiving prenatal care because of our lack of funds (right after the economy bottomed out), my pregnancy was considered high risk. I was 22 weeks pregnant, hadn't heard the baby's heart beat and was at my wits end. Kim, who had been my friend's doula, offered to give me prenatal care even though at the time I was sure I was going to have a hospital birth. My experience with Kim was so empowering. It was an unexpected pregnancy in an uncertain time in our lives and Kim was a total rock. My pregnancy went from a scary experience to something beautiful. We ended up deciding on a home birth, and my husband says it was one of the best experiences of his life (he was against it at first). Kim was truly amazing, kind, calm, warm and knowledgeable. Because of her, I am more empowered with every medical decision I make for myself and my children (yes, she was my midwife for my second child as well). Thinking about my birth experience with Kim makes me want to have another baby because she is so great and she made my labor one of the best experiences of my life.

He ended up turning in the last few weeks, so that was a relief! During my wife's birth, Kim stayed with us for an extended period of time. She went above and beyond to make sure the baby was okay as well as the mother. She was thoroughly equipped and well prepared for anything and everything. Her professionalism and ability to listen and respond effectively (and care for us at the same time!) shone through since our first meeting. We couldn't have asked for a better birth mentor than Kim Trower. :)

We opted for the placenta encapsulation with the artwork and cord keepsake. It came out so beautiful I ended up framing it and putting it up in our bedroom.

Our doula Olivia has basically become apart of our family! She met we us prior to me going into labor, answered all my questions and gave me confidence at a time when I really needed it. My birth took place at a hospital, my doula arrived promptly when needed and guided me through a very difficult birth. We initially thought we only needed a couple weeks of postpartum care, but due to an unforeseen medical issue postpartum I was hospitalized and we ended up having Olivia continue working with us for postpartum assistance through 5 months! She is easy to get ahold of, knowledgeable and truly a great human. She treats our daughter as if she was her own and is incredibly knowledgeable about all things birthing related! Having a postpartum Doula is the greatest experience and I highly recommend it, especially if you don't have a lot of family living nearby to help.

I'm not here to discredit anyone's positive experience. It's clear from the reviews that most…read morepeople have a very positive experience with Advanced Breastfeeding Support of Las Vegas, and specifically with Autumn. I, however, did not, and I'd like to share my personal experience. I really appreciated the weighted feed. It was about the only real valuable portion of the consultation. But for $200, I probably could have asked my baby's pediatrician for a weighted feed for free. Autumn was very nice during the consultation, but I felt like all of her advice and direction was very generic. Nothing she recommended was specifically tailored to me and my particular situation. The whole appointment consisted of the weighted feed and showing me two nursing positions (side lying and laid back) that are easily found online. That's it. She kept repeating phrases like, "Nose to nipple, tummy to mummy," and "Turn baby like a rotisserie chicken." Phrases she reiterated anytime I had a question after the appointment. Nothing about the appointment felt personalized or curated to me and my baby's specific needs. I wanted some pumping advice, so I brought my pump and parts, but she didn't seem at all interested in helping me navigate my questions. Included in the fee was two weeks of unlimited communication. I started messaging her with questions the very next day because I wanted to make sure I got the most out of the two weeks. Every response felt like I was bothering Autumn. She'd repeat the same phrases she said at the appointment. When I asked for a more personal approach, she accused me of being a stressed mother. That was the final straw for me. I realized I wasn't going to get the help I so desperately needed. Needless to say, I've had to end my breastfeeding journey at this time and have gone back to exclusively pumping. I'm nervous to spend more money on another lactation consultant out of fear that it'll be a repeat experience.
