3 Best Midwives in San Jose, CA

South Bay Homebirth Collective is AMAZING! I had my appointments in San Jose with Melissa because I live in Saratoga, and when it was baby time my fiancé drove us the 25 minutes down to Morgan Hill to the birth center. Melissa and her doulas are so knowledgable and comforting. This was my first birth and if we are in the Bay Area for our next I am definitely going to call, and more than likely have another transformative experience in the hands of experts. Highly recommended on every level.

I had a hospital birth with my first and knew I wanted a different experience for my second. We met with Hope when I found out I was expecting and we knew she would be the perfect fit for our family! Hope is incredibly warm, understanding, and knowledgeable about prenatal care, delivery and post partum care. She was patient with my crazy two year-old during our prenatal check-ups and it was so helpful to be able to text her quick questions throughout my entire pregnancy and post partum care. When I went into labor Hope showed up within fifteen minutes of calling and was amazing! She went above and beyond our expectations and we had an amazing homebirth experience. I am so glad we made the choice to Birth with Hope and have the baby at home. I highly recommend Hope to anyone interested in homebirth; she's the best! I can't wait to have more babies in the future just so Hope can catch them.

Everyone who knows me knows how much I love Hope..choosing her as our midwife for our third baby was the best decision we could have ever made. She's a truly holistic care provider that gives everything to her clients. She had more than a healthy respect for my past experiences, my current fears, and for the choices I felt were best for me and my baby. I would highly recommend her for anyone who is considering a home birth.

Megan is a truly amazing doula! She is nurturing, kind, and has a wealth of knowledge and experience surrounding natural childbirth. If you are even hoping to deliver without medications I highly recommend you reserve Megan at your doula! You will not regret it.

I saw Meg's profile read her reviews and texted her today (Saturday) AM. The text was prompted by the fact that we needed some help with breastfeeding and lactation. Shortly thereafter we got a call from Meg and she spoke to both me and my wife and shared a whole lot of info on lactation. The info she shared was very helpful to make us feel better and we are implementing some of the practical suggestions she made to us. She followed up her call with sending us several online reference sources and more ideas on what we could do. Meg is a natural at what she does and we could tell she has a passion and dedication to her profession. 5 stars, hands down.

I had my placenta encapsulated with my first born and found it to be extremely beneficial for me, specifically with my mood. So for my second son I knew I wanted to do it again. I found Doula Meg from another doula who retired and I liked what she offered so I gave her a try. I am so glad I went with her because I feel she went above and beyond. For this time around I have a placenta print and part of the umbilical cord in the shape of a heart. I am using the placenta pills again and I ordered a tincture to help with menopause. She was extremely quick with pick up and delivery and took time to sit with me after and talk. If we decide to have a third child I will definitely us her services again. I also would recommend anyone considering a doula to hire Meg. A most positive experience I had.
