Arianna was with me for all four of my pregnancies and births. Arianna has been a true blessing to our family. I can't say enough amazing things about Arianna and her support team. I appreciate their attention to detail, their ability to be personable, to put you at easy, and be informative, professional, casual, therapeutic, encouraging, loving, and supportive, all at the same time. Olivia was with me for three of my pregnancies and births. Olivia is very knowledgeable and gentle. Breanna was new to the team with my last pregnancy and birth, and I couldn't be happier with their choice to team up with her. My last birth went so quickly so Breanna arrived solo and she was calm and encouraging while she was getting everything ready. I recommend Your Circle Midwifery to everyone I know!

These talented beauties cared and coached us in the home birth I have been dreaming of. They had my back as I labored and eventually birthed my baby boy at home. I could not have done it without them. I highly recommend them if you want a natural empowered birth. They kept us safe and supported as I did the hardest best thing I've ever done.

I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful team of midwives! From start to finish, they provided a level of care that went far beyond my expectations. You can tell they truly love what they do, their passion and compassion shine through in every interaction. They supported me through the hard parts both physically and emotionally, always reassuring and grounding me when I needed it most. Their holistic approach made me feel like my whole self was being cared for, not just my body.
One thing I really appreciated was how thoroughly they kept my husband and I informed. They always let us know what decisions we'd need to make ahead of time (screenings, ultrasounds, tests, etc.) so we could research and feel prepared. I never felt rushed or pressured, just empowered and informed.
They were also incredibly responsive over chat between appointments, answering all of my questions with patience and clarity. And during the birth itself, they were prompt, calm, and caring, it was clear how much they truly, truly cared.
What stood out even more was the extra care they gave me after birth, even when it was outside of what was technically included. I had a larger-than-normal tear that needed more oversight, and they went out of their way to make sure I was healing properly and feeling okay. That kind of commitment is rare and speaks volumes about who they are.

I am so lucky to have found this wonderful team of people. The care I received from them was unmatched and I truly feel like this team has become a part of my family. I did a home birth with both of my kids and had an absolutely wonderful experience. I received the best support and advice throughout both my pregnancies and both births went extremely well with zero complications. If you are on the fence about a home birth, DO IT! And do it with this team. You will not find a better group of women. They truly care about you and are there for you every step of the way. They are all so intelligent and lovely. I will continue to see them and they will always be a part of my motherhood journey !

5 stars isn't enough, they need 10 gold stars! I can't begin to describe the amazing experience I've had using Paula's Midwifery! it was a godsend and the perfect pairing for our family. Both Arianna and Olivia made me feel so comfortable in the appointments and in labor and delivery. They did EVERYTHING I asked them to and respected my wishes when there was something I didn't want to do. They take labs amazingly well, you can barely feel it, the are so respectful of your body and gentle with it, they ally are the best! worth every penny AND MORE! Will be using their services again and for every baby my husband and I decide to bring into the world! We love them so much and consider them family now! If you decide to go with them for your midwives, I promise you will NOT be disappointed!

I had the pleasure of having my homebirth and receiving prenatal care with Arianna and Olivia throughout my pregnancy (second baby, first was OB/GYN care and hospital birth). An experience I will forever be grateful for. The care received by these ladies is tenfold what I experienced from my first birth, as they not only became true friends throughout this journey, but are women who are just so intelligent and expertly trained in the field of birth and made me feel so safe and comfortable during mine. The vibes are truly immaculate with this group of ladies! A friend of mine asked if I ever felt worried during it and I can honestly say I felt like I was in the safest environment with professionals who know exactly what to do in any scenario and how not to take drastic interventions for more mild circumstances, unlike the hospital. The midwifery model is just the best in my opinion, and I love how it is family focused and geared toward a more physiological birth rather than medicalized birth. I brought my toddler son to a lot of the prenatal care and Arianna would read him books while Olivia would check on me and baby :) during the birth they gave me the perfect amount of encouragement as well as letting me follow whatever my body was doing, that was something I didn't know id want and love going into it but it was a highlight of their quality of care for sure. i just truly can't thank these ladies enough for the most beautiful prenatal care and birth experience I could have asked for! Love you ladies so much!

I have a million reasons to recommend Paula, Arianna, and Olivia. They went above and beyond anything I imagined. A as first time mom, they believed in me, answered every single question I had, and gave me confidence in the entire process. I ended up having a bumpy start to my daughter's life, but Arianna and Olivia were there through every step. Olivia stayed for countless hours of the birth. Arianna organized milk donors for me when we ended up in NICU. She answered my calls and messages around the clock, as she knew I was a frazzled new mama. They cared for my husband, daughter, and I well through the whole 9+ months. If you are looking for women with strong and calming energy to be present for your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, Arianna and Olivia are it. They are gifted in what they do, and I trust them immensely with my well-being and my baby's.

VBAC success because of Paula and Ariana! I will always be grateful for them!
I came to Paula's group for my second pregnancy after having a C-section. I had planned on having a home birth with my first but never went into labor at 42wks and ended up with a C-section . With my second pregnancy, I wanted a home birth so bad but was nervous it would end the same way. While meeting with Paula for the first time, she welcomed me with so much love, respect and confidence that things were going to go differently. And they did-I truly believe because of her experience, homeopathy and bedside manner.
Prenatal care with each of the midwives was great. Everyone has their own strengths and they seem to fit well with one another-care never felt disjointed. They did a good job educating about what my treatment options were in an unbiased, supportive manner.
One pleasant surprise during my care was homeopathy. Paula had homeopathic recommendations for many of the pregnancy discomforts and I feel like they really helped. One of my favorites was her "happy birthday" tincture and "after birth"tincture. The happy birthday tincture really prepped my body for labor-my first labor was 30hrs. My second labor was less than 2hrs...need I say anymore?! The afterbirth helped me a lot with after pains and mood.
Arianna and Paula were the 2 midwives on during my birth. My labor was fast and furious but they made it just in time. They stayed calm and set up efficiently. While pushing, Paula identified that my baby had shoulder dystocia within seconds. They got me out of the tub quickly without creating worry, repositioned my pelvis and my baby was out within a push. They empowered and encouraged me during my whole labor, and cared for me so well afterwards. Paula kissed my forehead while feeding me a meal in my bed while I fed my baby for the first time-both midwives love their work!
The combo of my home birth and having an amazing team made my postpartum experience a breeze. I felt like myself within a few days and had little to no pain. I had some breast feeding hiccups and Paula called me on her day off to make sure I was doing ok. I felt well supported throughout!
I'd highly recommend a home birth and to do it with Paula's team of midwives!

If you've been considering midwifery care, I would one million percent recommend these amazing and beautiful ladies!!! I had my second child at home with these amazing women and I can tell you that not only are they experienced and empathetic, they really love and care for each and every mother and child in their practice. Every prenatal appointment was thorough and never rushed. They respected every decision I made and were always there when I had a question or needed help with anything. They provided me with options and referrals for things I needed during my pregnancy. I genuinely don't think there are enough words to describe the amount of gratitude and respect I have for these wonderful women. If, and that is a major if, I ever decided to have another child, I would go back to Paula's Midwifery and I will never stop recommending them to anyone seeking midwifery care.

Such a great group of ladies. I knew I wanted a home birth for a long time, and was so happy when my husband (reluctantly) got on board when we got pregnant. I loved how much experience Paula had and got along great with the entire team. I am so glad I chose them and I looked forward to all of my pre and post natal visits.
Even though my birth wasn't the magickal smooth water birth I had envisioned, I felt safe, supported, and in very competent hands. I had to have a couple of interventions, and I knew that the midwives wouldn't have suggested them unless they thought they were absolutely necessary, so I felt very open to them, whereas in a hospital I may have been more skeptical. It's nice knowing your birth team has you and your baby's best in mind and knowing you won't have to fight them in those surreal moments. I felt very respected and never pushed to do anything. Everything was a suggestion and I felt no pressure, only urgency when it was truly necessary.
I thought after the birth, since it got a little scary for a minute, that my husband would be saying "never again" to home birth, but he has turned out to be an advocate for home birth telling everyone that he wouldn't want to do it any other way.
Do yourself a favor and hire these ladies as soon as you get pregnant!
