The mission of Servant’s Heart Midwifery Services is to provide evidence based, respectful, compassionate, family-centered maternity care to women with low-risk pregnancies, where labor, birth and recovery take place in the comfort and security of the woman’s home where institutional restrictions do not apply. Servant’s Heart Midwifery Services exists to accomplish this through bringing the art an
d science of midwifery together to support physiologic labor and birth and to enhance and not usurp the family’s unity. Servant’s Heart Midwife strongly believes that a positive birth experience not only can be a conduit for personal growth and empowerment, but helps women to positively embrace and enter the role of motherhood feeling confident and strong, rather than stripped of their power as so often happens in modern birthing institutions. Servant’s Heart Midwife desires this personal empowerment and sense of achievement for each of my clients, knowing that the process of giving birth will become a strong reference point in a woman’s life, giving her an inner strength to face life’s future challenges. If deviations from normal should arise during the pregnancy, birth or postpartum, which are outside of the CNM’s scope of practice, Servant’s Heart Midwife works in partnership with other members of the health care team to provide collaboration, or a seamless referral and transfer of care.
