Where to find Birth Cottage
What parents say
I had the best prenatal care, birth and postpartum care experience. I had my first son in a hospital and decided to go with a midwife for my second pregnancy and was met with way more than I had hoped for.
The Birth Cottage and Layla offered everything I was looking for during my pregnancy and labor. Being pregnant with my 4th, I knew exactly how my labors go and what I wanted to do. I felt so cared for and respected just being allowed to have my baby how I wanted.
I have had the great privilege of having both of my children at the Birth Cottage in Tallahassee. My first child was born in February 2021 and my second child in October of 2022.
I started going to Layla when I was 20 weeks pregnant. I was relocating from South Florida and her team made the transition seamless. My appointments were the highlight of appointments she answered all my questions and provided me with additional information if I wanted to research things further.
