Where to find Baby Catcher Birth Center

What parents say

My wife and I were adamant about having a natural birth for our first child, but we were a little worried about having at home with only the midwife as support. We were referred to The Baby Catcher center by another midwife that thought we might be a good fit for the services offered by the Baby Catcher.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Baby Catcher Birth Center and the incredible care I received from my midwife, Shatamia, during all three of my home births.

★★★★★ — Meghan, 2025-02

It is rare that I leave a clinical encounter feeling cared for. My experience with Baby Catcher Birth Center was simply amazing and made me wish I could receive all of my relevant healthcare there in perpetuity! From the very first visit, I was met with a perfect balance of warmth and seriousness from my care team.

★★★★★ — Yesmar, 2024-08

We knew we wanted to have a natural birth for our first child and knew without a doubt after looking around at our options, that the Babycatcher was the place to do it. The staff is incredibly warm, grounded and knowledgeable.
