Licensed Midwife in Tacoma, Washington

+licensed midwife

Licensed Midwives are holistic providers who have legal licensure by the state of Washington, with the first having been issued in 1917. Licensed Midwives are experts in healthy low risk pregnancy and normal physiologic birth. As specialists in community-based birth (out-of-hospital birth), Licensed Midwives attend births in homes or at freestanding birth centers like The Birthing Inn. Licensed Midwives are direct entry midwives, which means their training started with out-of-hospital births, rather than in hospitals. Learn more

Birth & Postpartum Doulas

Doula’s are not Midwives or Physicians, they are birthing coaches who are specially trained and experienced in the process of birth and labor. This might include education, emotional support, or physical support before, during and after labor. Consider adding a Doula to your birth team!

The Birthing Inn recommends utilizing DoulaMatch.net to find the right Doula(s) for you.
