Welcome to AA Midwifery Center

  

The birth center is a peaceful, comfortable home-like setting where you and your family can make yourselves at home.  You will enjoy a private room for giving birth, wear your own clothing, take a warm bath and eat when you feel hungry.  Our staff will work with you before the big today to create a plan of care which meets your individual needs and desires and empowers you in your own care.


A "freestanding" birth center is not affiliated with any hospital. It is a home like setting where safe maternity care is provided to low-risk women.

Gathering Spaces

We think a birth center should feel homey so you and your family can relax and settle in. Our spacious center has a large area for gathering and meeting.  


When you first enter the birthing center, you'll find comfortable couches and chairs. Childbirth classes are held in this area. Your guests can relax by the fireplace and watch cable TV, or snuggle up with a cozy quilt and take a midnight nap while they are waiting for your little one to arrive.  


We use as many non-toxic and 'green' products as possible. For instance, immediate cleaning of the birth tub is done with tea tree oil and rose oil solutions - we leave the sanitation process until after our families leave. We diffuse pure essential oils and are a latex-free facility;  using nitrile gloves and other non-latex products!

Kitchen


An equipped kitchen is available with a dining nook, refrigerator for any food you may bring, stove, microwave, blender, coffee, espresso and tea pots and dishwasher. It is stocked with dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware and many other useful amenities. Your family can make a pot of coffee or tea, prepare snacks or even cook an after birth feast. We want you and your family to feel at home.

Exam Rooms

We start out prenatal visits in a private sitting area with couches, chairs, ottoman, nursing pillows, and toys for the little ones.  Here we can sit comfortably and talk about how you are doing and answer any questions you might have.  For the second half of the prenatal visit we go to our bright and airy exam room.  Families love the life-like fetal models showing the size of your womb-baby.  A lending library is available with books ranging from pregnancy to birth to breastfeeding.
