What parents say
Carolyn is an excellent midwife who takes precautions and gets you prepared for birth. She helped me get my levels up when they were completely down. I was in trouble of not being able to give birth at home because of my anemia. She even bought things for me that she didn’t have to.
Updated on 9/19: After a previous wonderful experience with Carolyn we decided to work with her again for the birth of our fourth child and couldn’t be happier. Carolyn demonstrated outstanding expertise in helping guide the baby into an ideal birthing position and was extremely supportive before, during, and after…
It really was such a joy to have Carolyn as my midwife. I got in touch with her about 2 months into my pregnancy so we got to know each other pretty well before the baby was here! She is very professional and informative about having a safe and healthy birth experience. I felt I was in good hands from start to finish.
My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Carolyn as my midwife. She started with me when I was just 9 weeks pregnant and was extremely helpful from day 1. I had a health scare that she promptly responded to and made appropriate referrals to assist me in obtaining answers.
Frequently asked questions
- Is Joyful Home Birth a freestanding birth center or a hospital unit?

- Their own website mentions water birth or birthing tubs. Tub availability can change and eligibility depends on your situation, so confirm directly with the facility and your provider.
- Does Joyful Home Birth accept insurance or Medicaid?
- We couldn't confirm insurance details from public information. Ask the facility which plans they accept, and check with your insurer about coverage for the type of birth care you're planning.
- How do I get in touch or see the facility?
