What parents say
With my first pregnancy I went the OB & hospital route, now pregnant again I wanted to opt for a better experience where birth is embraced as something our bodies can do and not a medical procedure that has a strict timeline and a medical record number.
We had a complicated pregnancy and birth, but Tamara helped us with incredible grace and she cared for us through the entire experience. We had originally planned to give birth at Tamara's birth center, A Family Affair, but with the 20-week anatomy scan we received a tragic diagnosis.
As a Doula I love when my clients choose to use A family Affair Birth Center. The midwifes are amazing. They value the birthing couple as well as the Doula. I look forward to many more births at the Birth Center.
A Family Affair Birth Center will always hold a special place in my heart. Especially Tamara. I knew since before becoming pregnant I wanted to have a midwife. Unfortunately, in order to appease my in laws I tried going the "normal" route with an obgyn.
