What parents say

I am unbelievably grateful to have had Kitty as my midwife for my third birth and first home birth! Throughout my entire pregnancy and labor Kitty was nothing but kind, informative, and supportive. I always felt comfortable bringing any questions or concerns to her.

★★★★★ — Louise, 2024-12

Hiring Kitty was the best decision we could have made! From the moment I met her, I felt comfortable and at ease. Kitty and her student midwife, Talena, quickly became like family to us - even our dog looked forward to their visits!

★★★★★ — Erin, 2025-09

I had a wonderful experience with Kitty as my midwife! She is incredibly knowledgeable and having every appointment right in my home was amazing. Her calm and confident presence during the birth made me feel safe. I also loved working with her student midwife, Talena.

★★★★★ — Carly, 2025-11

We were really happy with our decision to hire Kitty as our midwife! She loves her job and her clients and it shows. Despite my baby being breech, she worked really hard to help me achieve a natural birth at home by connecting us with a midwife certified for the job.
