Midwifery Model of Care

"Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers - strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength."
-Barbara Katz-Rothman

Kay

I began my midwifery education after the birth of my daughter.  I had attended LaMaze classes, but still, the birth wasn’t how I had envisioned.  When I read about midwives a couple of years later, I knew immediately that this was what I had needed; a woman to stand by me  in labor. 

I started Emory’s midwifery program in 1982 and now have  been “standing by” women in labor for 25 years.  I  worked first in Houston in a large midwifery group, learning from other midwives.  I  have  since worked in a birth center in Texas and private practices at DeKalb, Northside and Gwinnett Hospitals.  I have never lost my  original purpose of being with the woman during her pregnancy, labor and delivery.  At North Fulton, I have finally found an  ideal nursing staff.   With their help, I am able to provide the kind of laboring support that welcomes alternative childbirth methods, such as hypnobirthing as well as water birth.
