What parents say
By far the best decision I made for myself, my pregnancy, and my family was the choice to become a client at Birth Roots. I switched to Birth Roots in my second trimester and I wish that I had worked with Corinne from the very start! I feel so, so lucky to have received such astute, thorough, and person-centered care.
There are too many good things to share about Birthroots! I have been a part of the practice prior to concieving and Corrine has been also so helpful in my general reproductive healthcare as well as family planning.
Corinne was an amazing midwife and I am SO glad we were able to receive care from them and their team for our home birth. As a trans person and a neurodivergent person, I had several concerns about a hospital birth so I initially started care at a birth center. I transferred to Corinne's care around 28 weeks pregnant.
Reflecting now in my child’s first year, I can say with certainty that my recovery—mentally, physically, and emotionally—would not have been the same without Corinne. They served as our overnight postpartum doula during those first critical months.
