About Simple Abundance Midwifery

Simple Abundance Midwifery respects the dignity, rights, and ability of the people we serve. We understand that the childbirth experience is a personal, social, and community event and recognize that a pregnant woman is the only direct care provider for herself and her unborn baby; thus the most important determinant of a healthy pregnancy is the pregnant woman herself.

 

We recognize the empowerment inherent in the childbearing experience and strive to support clients to make informed decisions and take responsibility for their own well-being. We provide guidance as needed to facilitate the spontaneous process of pregnancy, labor and birth, utilizing medical intervention only as necessary. We understand that the parameters of “normal” vary widely and recognize that each pregnancy and birth is unique.

 

We value continuity of care throughout the childbearing cycle, and strive to maintain continuous care within realistic limits.
