As an alternative to hospital birth, Tender Gifts Birth Center is Northern Colorado's first full-service, freestanding birth center. The atmosphere of our Colorado birth center will give you a caring, warm, and home-like environment where you are supported and respected as well as safe and secure. You will have a private room, bathroom & birthing tub for giving birth the way you choose: make yourself comfortable, wear the clothing you choose, eat when you feel hungry, move as you please and choose to labor in a birth tub or have a waterbirth. In addition to our birth center, we also provide homebirth midwifery care, women's health services, prenatal care, and doula training for the Northern Colorado community.

“Together, We Remember”

👣Loss is often silent, but no family should feel alone. At Tender Gifts, we believe healing begins with community—knowing there are people who will sit with you in the ache, honor your baby’s memory, and walk with you as you find your footing again. 

Every life, no matter how brief, leaves an imprint. We honor all babies who are no longer in our arms but in the arms of who we believe to be our creator and forever in our hearts. We hold space for families walking this path, because no one should carry this grief alone. ”

These two sweet girls were beyond excited to welcome their 9lb baby brother into the world at home. 💙 They showered their mama with the most tender words of encouragement during labor and were right there to witness the incredible moment their baby brother came earthside. 🌿
A beautiful reminder of how powerful a family centered birth truly is.

This is how we do newborn screens, slow, gentle and with love. We do our best to not make babies cry.

Althea Hrdlichka, CPM

As a mother of four, I found my enjoyment and satisfaction during pregnancy was truly dependent on the support I received. I have had four completely different birthing experiences. Some were fulfilling while others fell short. This is why I chose to dedicate my life's work to assist women during pregnancy and childbirth by becoming a CPM (Certified Professional Midwife).

​ I also keep a current certification in neonatal resuscitation and CPR. While homebirth is a mostly natural form of childbirth, I work closely with doctors, chiropractors and other medical providers to bring every element of care necessary to service all of my clients needs throughout their pregnancy and childbirth. I’ve worked with women through both natural and medicated births, and assisted with many successful VBAC’s in the hospital and at home.

I am passionate about providing supportive, gentle and loving care to all my clients so that they may experience the birth they deserve. I look forward to providing care and knowledge to you and your partner as well as a safe and satisfying pregnancy and birthing experience. I cannot wait to meet you and assist you through your journey to a wonderful and satisfying pregnancy and birth.
