We had so much fun sharing about midwifery care and homebirth at Informed Choice Iowa conference this weekend! We are blessed to be a part of such an amazing community of families 🥰

Happy Friday! It’s been a busy few days for the midwives…36 clinic visits & 3 babies born so far this week! We love what we do & are so grateful to come alongside such amazing families ❤️

Head to toe, every detail tells a story.
Gentle hands, steady hearts, and a whole lot of love in every newborn exam — a chance to witness how perfectly designed babies are.

✨Birth Space✨

As home birth midwives, we attend births in all sorts of spaces-kitchens, bedrooms, bathrooms, basements, laundry rooms, etc. Some moms desire waterbirth and others want to birth on the floor! But there always seems to be some common themes… dim lighting, a peaceful environment, and feeling comfortable in the space that you are going to bring your baby into the world ❤️

In honor of National Women's Small Business Month, we want to share about our friend Megan Garvin, a local mom and the owner of Batch Balanced. She is the creator of AMAZING muffin mixes that are not only highly NUTRITIOUS, but also EASY for busy moms! She is helping families make positive, healthier choices here in our community!

Check them out and give them a try! We know from personal experience with Batch Balanced muffins, that they are both mom and kid approved! 🤩

Learn how a local mom created a business, Batch Balanced-a healthy, easy to make muffin batter, in her kitchen.

October is National Women’s Small Business Month! This is a time to recognize the strength & contributions of female entrepreneurs in our community. Midwives Kayla & Lauren love being small business owners! It takes a lot of work & heart to run a business…especially one that runs 24/7/365, because babies arrive at all different times 🙃 They are dedicated midwives who strive to see change in women’s health & the birth world 💪🏼
