Where to find SimplyBorn Birth Center

What parents say

I've been meaning to write this review for a really long time -- my son was born over 3 years ago now! Such is life. It took my husband and I over 7 years to bring our child into the world. Sara was with us for 3 of our miscarriages, even helping us from afar once when we were overseas.

★★★★★ — Genna, 2023-01

From the very beginning, the entire simplyborn team made us feel welcome. During every appointment, we were always greeted with smiles and kindness. Sara made sure to make us as comfortable as possible during pregnancy as well as delivery.

★★★★★ — Bryana, 2023-03

I switched to SimplyBorn around the 34th week of pregnancy from a different birth center midwife due to moving. I'm so thankful they were able to accept me as a late transfer. Sara and Brooke attended my son's birth at the birth house.

★★★★★ — Amy, 2022-07

Sara, Charis, Kendra, and the entire team are remarkable. They are knowledgeable and experienced midwives, lifelong teachers for us, and they are compassionate, supportive, patient, loving, fun people. As lost first-time parents, we luckily found Sara midway into our pregnancy.
