Question 1

Do I still have to go to the Pediatrician and OB provider?

Accepted Answer

I can be the primary provider for your well newborn in the first 28 days of their life when you choose a Dyad Package. I ask that you contact your pediatrician prior to delivery to discuss transferring care to them after the first month.
You may continue to see your OB provider for routine postpartum care. Your care with me will typically be supplemental. If there are barriers to you going back to your OB provider, I am happy to fill that gap and manage your routine follow-up.

Question 2

Can you see me if I had a cesarean?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Regardless of how you birthed your baby, I can help assess your recovery and healing.

Question 3

What if I am considered "high risk?"

Accepted Answer

We will set up a prenatal consult or call at the time of inquiry to ensure you and your baby are appropriate for midwifery care.

Question 4

How long are your visits?

Accepted Answer

Unlike your typical postpartum or newborn well-check which are typically 10-15 minutes, I will spend up to one hour with you and your family. Investing in this service is an investment in your health and wellbeing.

Question 5

I had a loss, what are my options for care?

Accepted Answer

For starters, I am deeply sorry for your loss. This can feel like an impossible time and going anywhere, let alone your OB office, can be difficult. I am more than happy to provide routine care for you in your home, work collaboratively with your OB team, and connect you to community based resources, to ensure your physical and emotional recovery are optimized.

Question 6

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I have contracts with a few insurers right now and am working to have contracts with all major networks by Fall 2026. I am happy to work with you if I am not yet in network with your insurer. Please, just reach out!
