More from Olivia’s Client, Kayla:

“When we found out we were pregnant with our third child I knew I wanted to birth at home. As a Nurse who had previously birthed in the hospital, I was strongly convinced that I would experience more safety, autonomy, and simple joy throughout the birthing process at home than in the hospital. Olivia gave my husband and I space to labor the way I desired, and she helped my husband catch our baby. It was so empowering for both of us! While my husband was initially apprehensive about birthing at home, after our experience we both agree that we wouldn’t birth any other way!”


More from Olivia’s Client, Holly:

“After weeks of prodromal labor, I could count on my fingers the total number of contractions I had in active labor. This was my 3rd birth, but my first home birth AND my first natural birth. Did I have a good experience despite the midwife not arriving before baby came? Let’s just say that if the Lord blesses us with a 4th baby someday, he or she will absolutely be born at home with the SAME birth team!”

More from Olivia’s Client, Jordyn:

“I wasn’t expecting to choose home birth for this baby– in a way, home birth sort of chose me, but what a blessing it was. Now, being pregnant with my third, I am choosing home birth again because it was so beautiful and sacred to welcome our baby in the comfort of our own home, with the excellent support of an experienced midwife, surrounded by our sweet little village.”
