Serving birthing families is what Katie has done since 1986...all over the world. She has welcomed over 500 babies (and their families) into her heart and hands.
Katie graduated from a nationally accredited midwifery school and now practices homebirth midwifery care out of her Vermont home office, serving families in Vermont and just over the border in NH. She also runs a free-standing birth center in Hanover, NH, for birthing families who want choice in care! Katie blends her philosophy of kindness and acceptance with her depth of knowledge and life experience to provide gentle, peaceful and safe homebirth midwifery care.
Katie is a fierce advocate for informed choice, partnership in care and evidence-based midwifery. She blends a compassionate heart, deep listening and a scientific mind to offer comprehensive, creative and individualized care to each family she is blessed to work with.
Katie has worked for years to establish peaceful, collaborative relationships with health care providers all over the state of Vermont, including hospitals, obstetricians, pediatricians, naturopathic doctors, nurse midwives, family doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturists, and much more, so that if the need arises, a family's care can be collaborative and/or transferred in a peaceful and respectful way.
Katie is past president of the Vermont Midwives Association and serves on the Vermont Maternal Mortality Review Board.
