TENDER BEGINNINGS REVIEWS
We used Mary Anne and her team for a home birth in October 2023, and they were absolutely amazing! Mary Anne's depth of knowledge and true expertise in the field of midwifery were such a comfort to rely on throughout the process. There was not a single moment where my husband or I doubted our trust in her and her team to guide us through the pregnancy safely and achieve our goal of a healthy delivery at home. We learned so much throughout the process, so when it came time to deliver our son, we were completely at ease. She and her team arrived quickly, quietly, and professionally. They brought in their equipment and got to work without disturbing my coping methods. My husband was still my primary supporter and was able to remain focused on me without interruption as they were peacefully in the background guiding us through the process. We truly cannot say enough good things about our experience with Tender Beginnings! It was an amazing journey and more than we ever could have hoped for with a home birth. Thanks to them, we confidently had a safe, healthy, peaceful, happy, beautiful home birth and my body was able to do exactly what it was designed to do! We will forever sing their praises and be grateful for this experience.
I couldn't have found a better midwife than Mary Anne and her team. I wished I were still pregnant after the baby came so that I could still go to my appointments to see them. She really empowers you to make the best choices for your birth and respects your wishes. I appreciate that she explains everything very well and doesn't hesitate to make sure you are doing what you should for the care of yourself and your baby during pregnancy. Every appointment, and my home birth, felt like I was with family. I absolutely loved my time with Tender Beginnings and loved that I could trust Mary Anne so easily, especially with her extensive and impressive history and experience of midwifery.
I cannot say enough about Mary Anne and her amazing team! From my prenatal appointments, to comforting me when I was nervous, to the incredible birth, through postpartum-their support and care were outstanding and just what this momma needed! I knew every step of the way I could get an answer to a question or concern right away, which was so comforting. They also made the home birth experience exactly what I wished for (that they could control) and helped me through each step of birth through the hours after. All of my babies will be born with Tender Beginnings!

NOVA BIRTH SERVICES REVIEWS
From my very first meeting with Celesta, I knew she was the right fit for us. Her laid back disposition coupled with her extensive knowledge put us completely at ease from day one. She, as well as the other ladies at NOVA, was completely respectful of our wishes during pregnancy and birth. I felt she provided us with the necessary information to make informed decisions regarding the entire process. She and Cannon, our wonderful doula, took exceptional care of us during delivery. The entire experience made me feel so empowered, and delivering our baby at home was nothing short of magical - Rachelle, Nashville, TN
As a RN and already mom of 2, I had high expectations for my 3rd pregnancy and birth and I am so grateful I chose Nova and their birth professionals because my expectations were more than exceeded. Heather coached me through one of the best experiences of my life and the postpartum doulas met every need for me and baby as well as my whole family. Your birth will be so very special with Nova as part of your birth team - Cylie, Nashville, TN
My experience with NOVA could not be more positive. My midwife, Jennifer, and doula were both fantastic professionals, warm, compassionate, skilled and incredibly good at what they do. The home birth class was very informative and helped us feel prepared for the birth of our first child. The NOVA team was always prompt, kind, efficient, and knowledgeable and helped us have an amazing, and safe, birthing experience. I cannot recommend them enough - Briana, Nashville, TN

VANDERBILT BIRTH CENTER REVIEWS
I love Vanderbilt birth and their entire staff. I was with them for my pregnancy with my daughter throughout the pandemic and now I'm a return patient with my second pregnancy and I'm so thankful for their mindful practice and how far they go out of their way to make me feel seen, heard and validated no matter if I'm pregnant, postpartum or coming in for well woman visits. Literally cannot speak highly enough of these people
Best healthcare experience of my life! I switched to the Birth Center at 26 weeks because I found the lack of evidence-based care and excessive intervention in the hospital setting frustrating (especially as an economist). Thanks to the wisdom and quick thinking of the midwives, we ended up having a wonderful birth and postpartum experience. Would that every city had a birth center like this!
Being a certified birth doula, I want to make sure my clients have a safe, comfortable place to labor. This place gives them the feeling of being at home with nurse midwives who are just up the street from the hospital in case there ever were a medical emergency. I love working with all of the midwives. They make both me and my clients feel welcomed each and every time. Thank you for always providing some of the best holistic care and for making us feel like family! - Jessica Easter
