History
The practice philosophy at Phoenix Home Birth is simple- We know how to give birth; we are powerful and babies are smart. Our bodies are designed to bring forth life with very little intervention, and our babies use their instincts during the labor and first hours after birth to help keep us safe. We believe that careful, educated, and diligent assessment allows the midwife to interfere less with the birth process, allowing for true empowerment for each birthing person and family. We are here as the guardians of the sacred process of growing and birthing a baby, and acknowledge that as our highest responsibility in life. We are thankful for hospitals and technology when we need them, but we believe that proper guidance, health, care, and assessment makes the need for them less common. Pregnancy is not a sickness, and birth is not a medical emergency. During pregnancy and labor, a birthing person needs someone with skilled hands and an open heart, and that is what we aim to provide.
