Choosing a homebirth allows you to welcome your baby in a familiar, comfortable environment surrounded by the people you love.

Our role is to carefully monitor safety while honoring birth as a normal physiological process. We provide skilled clinical care while protecting the natural flow of labor whenever possible.
Our homebirth midwifery services include:
Comprehensive prenatal care including labs, screenings, and nutritional guidance
Ongoing risk assessment and informed decision-making throughout pregnancy

Connected Birth serves families throughout Vermont, traveling to homes within an hour of our Williston office and home in Charlotte. We collaborate with local providers when additional support is needed.
Personalized Prenatal Care
Prenatal visits at Connected Birth are unhurried and relationship-focused. Appointments typically last 45–60 minutes, giving us the time to truly connect and address your questions.
