Highly recommend this absolutely wonderful place for in-person birthing classes! We ended up having some private class sessions with Sarah, who not only thoroughly explained all the key aspects of childbirth and newborn care for two clueless first-time parents, but did so in such a supportive, realistic, and encouraging way. She took the time to address both my questions/concerns and my husband's, making us feel heard and prepared throughout the process for what we needed. Between the diagrams, charts, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and the genuine interest she showed in us as people, she created such a welcoming and caring learning environment. We took the classes a few months ago, and now that our baby has arrived, we're still using and remembering many of the tips, tricks, and information she taught us. That speaks volumes about how practical and effective the classes were. We are incredibly grateful for Sarah and everything she taught us. She helped us feel far more confident going into the birth of our first child. As a side note, while I didn't deliver at the Birthing Inn, I was able to see the facility during our classes. The rooms and overall environment felt calm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed, and they looked like wonderful spaces to accommodate a variety of birthing preferences and needs.

A few months ago I gave birth to my baby girl at The Birthing Inn with Midwife Brandy. It was a phenomenal experience and I am forever grateful for her care. I switched to TBI from a larger practice because I wanted a more personal experience where i could talk and learn from my midwife, not get 5 minutes with a provider and then not know who would attend my birth. The team at The Birthing Inn is compassionate, professional, and extremely knowledgeable.

I had such an amazing experience at the Birthing Inn for my first baby! All of my appointments leading up to birth were wonderful. I had Midwife Brandy for most of my care, and she was incredibly helpful and informative at every visit. She really prepared me for labor and also offered great birthing and newborn classes that made a huge difference. My labor ended up being very long, but Brandy stayed by my side through it all and supported me every step of the way. The birth room experience they provide is truly special and made such a big impact on my first birth. Ayla at the front desk was always so friendly and welcoming. She even offered a drink every time we came in, which made the whole experience feel extra comfortable and personal. I also had a few appointments with Midwife Kay, and she was great as well! I will absolutely be coming back here for future children and always recommend this place to my friends. Overall, such a positive and empowering experience highly recommend!

I had both my babies here. Best decision I made. Honored to have Susan - feel safe with her knowledge and expertise. Positive relationship. Kid friendly office. The care I wish every mom would have! I appreciate the long appointments and personalized care - specific to me and my needs. Real choice and consent, not forced. Educate benefits, risks, and alternatives. We discussed my birth plan... no extra decisions to make during labor. 😌 We also discussed and had Plan-B ready, in case. They have that all worked out in the system. Highly recommend doing your care with a midwife you trust !
