I had the most amazing birth experience here. It was seamless and Marissa was an absolute pro. I felt very cared for and am extremely grateful for this transformative birth experience.

I had the best experience with this group of knowledgeable and professional women. They always gave me all the information I needed to make the right decision for me and my family from when I first switched to them from the hospital to when baby was 6 weeks and even beyond.

★★★★★ — Susanna, 2023-04

I gave birth at the birth cottage in June of this year. It was a wonderful and powerful experience!! I knew this pregnancy I wanted to do things differently, I felt very supported and comfortable with the experienced midwives here.

★★★★★ — Sammy, 2024-10

Choosing the Birth Cottage was the best decision! I'll be the first to admit I was initially hesitant and carried around fears about an out of hospital birth. However, all those concerns melted away after Marissa gave me a tour and explained all the safety measures.
