Where to find Birth & Beyond
What parents say
When we learned we were pregnant... we knew what we wanted our birth to be like. I was very clear from the beginning that our vision was to have a natural home birth. My partner was 100% on board and we spoke to a family midwife friend for advice. She recommended Birth and Beyond.
I have nothing but amazing words about birth and beyond. The midwives here were absolutely amazing. I always knew that I did not want traditional care. As a young woman of color and a veteran, I am used to being dismissed and having little to no autonomy in my healthcare and I wanted better for my first child.
The midwives here offer an unmatchable service. They are highly trained, medical professionals with skills so specific and honed I felt confident and comfortable in their care before, during, and after my pregnancy.
I had a very good experience with Birth and Beyond. I knew that I wanted a home birth this was the only agency in Connecticut I could find. From my first appointment at 10 weeks to my last 6 weeks postpartum, I felt supported and validated.
