Birth ROOMS

We have 2 birthing suites at our location, each designed to make you feel as comfortable as possible during your birth. 

Water birth

We understand the benefits of laboring and birthing in water.  Warm water is soothing, comforting, and relaxing, and provides a gentler transition for the baby from womb to world.  Therefore, each birthing suite includes a comfortable and spacious tub.  

comfortable beds

The beds chosen for the birth center are top-of-the line and made out of non-toxic materials. Beds are queen-sized, and very comfortable.   

soothing Environment

Each includes:

• Rocking chair

• Large walk-in shower

• Carefully chosen bed and bath linens

• Soft and adjustable lighting

• Bluetooth speaker

• Birth ball

Community kitchenette
