Natural Birth at Home in Alaska

Home birth in Alaska offers a unique opportunity to experience childbirth in a familiar environment, nestled within the heart of your own home and nature's beauty.

When you welcome your newborn at home in Alaska, the majesty of Alaska becomes part of the birthing experience. Maybe, crisp mountain air fills the room, or a crackling fireplace creates a calming ambiance, and the warmth of loved ones surrounds you.

Giving birth in the comfort of your own home allows you to surround yourself with familiar sights, smells, and loved ones, creating a sense of security and support. As your midwife my intention is to hold that space you create to welcome your baby, whilst ensuring the health and safety of the mother baby dyad.

Alaska is a place where independence and resilience are celebrated. Choosing a home birth aligns with that spirit, allowing you to take charge of your birthing experience and make the choices that feel right for you and your baby.

"Home birth allows birth to unfold as a natural and beautiful event." - Marshall Klaus, M.D.
