What parents say

I felt at home here right away. The staff are so kind, informative, and welcoming. They welcome any and all questions. I never felt forced with any intervention. I had a beautiful birth with the help of Lori. I ended up switching my care to MBC at 37 weeks and am so glad I did! During my labor at MBC St.

My experience at the MN Birth Center (St Paul) was amazing from my first prenatal visit to my last postpartum visit (and everything in-between!) I met with several of the midwives throughout my prenatal care, all of whom were so wonderful.

★★★★★ — Kate, 2021-03

I cannot recommend the Minnesota Birth Center enough! This was my fourth baby but first time at a birth center and I wish I could go back and have all my babies here! The prenatal care was great, I enjoyed all of the midwives I met.

★★★★★ — Kariann, 2025-05

I am still amazed by the awesome care I received at the MN Birth Center (St. Paul) location. I always wanted a more natural birth and didn’t know what was possible until I found the MN Birth Center. Every appointment leading up to the birth of my little one was awesome.
