At Overland Park Regional Medical Center, every birth story is personal and every family is cared for with compassion and expertise.

When Milo was born, his family described their experience as everything they hoped for — calm, supportive and centered around trust.

“I approached [my midwife] with my anxiety about the medicalization of childbirth and expressed my hope that my experience could be ‘like a home birth that just happens to have a NICU down the hall.’ In the end, that was exactly what I had,” said Aja, mother of baby Milo.

Under the care of certified nurse midwife Courtney Carlson, doula Charity Vazquez and maternity navigator Lisa Holk, the family experienced high-quality care that honored their birth preferences including freedom to move, limited interventions, hydrotherapy, delayed cord clamping and extended skin-to-skin time.

Milo’s birth captures what HCA Midwest Health stands for: care that empowers every family, from the first visit to the first cry.

With labor and delivery hospitals across the Kansas City area, we make it convenient to receive exceptional pregnancy and childbirth care. Learn more: https://bit.ly/4qaXTK5
