Midwives Model of Care

Our Certified Nurse-Midwives share their philosophy:

kristi megan boise idaho midwivesNurse-Midwives provide care to women from adolescence to beyond menopause, including preconception care, family-planning, and well-woman care. The midwifery care model focuses on individualized care and optimal health, and views pregnancy and birth as a normal physiological process. Focusing on the normalcy of pregnancy and birth is central to the practice of midwifery, recognizing that many factors influence each woman's unique experience of childbirth, including her fears and beliefs. Midwives support your unique physical, social, and emotional needs throughout your entire pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

boise midwifery birthMidwifery care places a strong emphasis on the midwife-client relationship. In this relationship, you will experience shared decision-making, informed choice, and self-determination. While always watchful for complications, we trust in each woman's ability to have a normal, healthy, positive pregnancy and birth. In labor, this means we offer physical and emotional support, providing continuity to our clients, meaning we attend 99% of our clients' births. Our cesarean section rate remains one of the lowest in the Treasure Valley at 2.6%. Honoring women and their families through the midwifery model of care includes supporting mothers with lactation in the hospital after birth and in their homes if there is need.
