Welcome to Dayspring

Childbirth should be

viewed as a natural

undertaking in life,

not a medical crisis. Every birth is as unique as each person is an individual. No two women will labor or birth the same. Therefore it takes a watchful and skillful eye to guard this precious process.

Midwifery Standard of Care


A Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) is an independent practitioner who has met the standards for certification set by the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM) and is qualified to provide the Midwives Model of Care. The NARM certification process recognizes multiple routes of entry into midwifery and includes verification of knowledge and skills and the successful completion of both a Written Examination and Skills Assessment. The CPM credential requires training in out-of-hospital settings. As  CPMs we uphold the highest standards in midwifery care.  CPMs are trained to recognize and screen for potential problems. If at any time during your care complications arise, which contraindicate a safe out-of-hospital birth, you will be referred to a

physician.

Our Birth Philosophy


It is our belief that the childbearing cycle is, for the majority of women, a healthy  normal function, best completed with minimal interventions and maximum education and  support.  


We believe that optimum birth experience is best achieved when a midwife and client  work closely together and share the responsibility for a successful outcome.  Informed consent is used for making decisions regarding care.  Clients are given information and resources to research all procedures and tests which enables them to look
at pros and cons for traditional care vs alternative care.  Clients then can be well informed about their healthcare needs and take charge of decisions made concerning them and/or their newborn.


Each family is unique and will be treated as individuals, with respect and flexibility.  Every mother will be given the well deserved opportunity to labor and deliver in the manner and position in which she chooses.  Every baby will be provided the best possible, gentle transition  from the womb into the loving arms of mom.
