Greetings! MotherSeed Midwifery is planning for a (somewhat/some kind of) sabbatical in 2025. I will only be working with people “due” in 2025 whom I have midwifed before, live in Whitefield or are part of a community/family/church/etc that I already midwife. Please contact me directly if you are giving birth in 2025 and already have a relationship with me.
Thanks and Blessings to All.
Welcome! I am Rebecca, the midwife of MotherSeed Midwifery. I have been attending birth as a midwife in people’s homes since 2008. I provide care to people and families through the seasons of pregnancy, birth, postpartum and early family forming. I aim to build relationships and engage with people during these times in a collaborative partnership that is unique to you and your family.
It is my belief that it is healthy and strong to create, grow, birth and care for the new humans of Earth AND form families in a way that is in alignment with how people live their unique lives. I would love the chance to learn who you are, what matters to you, and why homebirth with a midwife is in alignment with how you live your life. Recognizing that diversity is an essential part of community, I welcome all individuals who seek midwifery care and celebrate the variety of experience that each client brings to my practice.
I provide holistic-minded, whole-person midwifery care from conception through the postpartum period. Discover what this process looks like and if it might be a good fit for you.
As a midwife, I strive to respect, recognize and honor the weaving together of spirit and science in health, birth, family-forming, and life. Read more about my philosophy of care.
I’ve put together an extensive list of resources to help you on your pathway through pregnancy and into new parenting, including local providers, educational resources, and useful books.
“A peaceful birthing reverberates out to the room and all the people present. It is a memory that is permanently implanted into your baby’s cells. This Program of Peace is what your child will operate from its whole life.”
“Halfway through my second pregnancy, feeling very disconnected from hospital prenatal care, I searched for a local home birth midwife to see if it would be a good fit for us. Right away, at our first appointment with Rebecca, I felt supported, informed and safe! Working with her through my pregnancy, at our birth, in the postpartum period and with two more amazing home births years later, was the most sacred and empowering experience of my life. Rebecca’s professionalism, wisdom and kindness have been such a blessing to my family. I consider her to be a great friend, mentor and forever our midwife!”
