You never stopped believing in us through labor. You were our pillar and we couldn’t have had our successful dream birth without your pep talks, reality checks, dance party ideas, and positive reinforcement. You led us through, and we are so thankful for everything, prenatal, postnatal, you are in our family’s heart forever. We love you. Thank you.

Such a welcoming and safe place to give birth. I loved the one on one care and also the group prenatal classes. I always felt heard, and the midwives allowed me to be in charge of the birth I wanted. Birthing my baby here was such a powerful and intimate experience, and I can’t wait to have my second baby here.

Best place to have a birth! The midwives and their assistants are knowledgeable, warm, attentive, kind, and awesome to work with. We had the exact birth we wanted and never once did it feel unsafe. We literally could not have had a better birth experience, and we know if we did it at a hospital we would have been induced or given an epidural or had a C-section, etc. Instead, at the birth center, we had a magical, beautiful experience! Highly highly recommended!

We had our daughter with the San Francisco birth center this year. You can’t get better care in San Francisco. You have the opportunity to build relationships with each of the midwives you work with throughout your prenatal care. The group centering classes are an amazing resources. The facility is homey in the best sense. We are big fans!

I cannot say enough good about this place. I had an unnerving and unpleasant first birth experience in a hospital setting, and I wanted to do something different for baby #2. My goal was to find a setting with evidence-based protocols providing patient-centered care. This place was amazing. My experience was that they were quite conservative– they would have wanted to transfer to a hospital if there was any signs of a problem, which in my eyes was a major plus. In the end my labor and birth were low risk, and I feel that my care experience surpassed all reasonable (and some unreasonable) expectations. I came home feeling empowered, happy, and healthy, and I have been healing quickly. What a different physical and psychological place to be in during such a big transition
