FAQ
What services do you offer?
At Midwife KC, we provide full-scope midwifery care to support you from pregnancy through postpartum—and even for general wellness. Our services include:
- Prenatal Care: Regular, in-depth visits to check on you and your baby, answer questions, and provide holistic, personalized support.
- Labor & Birth Support: Compassionate, expert care in the comfort of your home, ensuring a safe and empowering birth experience.
- Postpartum Care: Ongoing care for you and your baby, including newborn checks, breastfeeding support, and those all-important first days as a family.
We also offer well-woman care, so you can stay connected to your health even outside of pregnancy.
Is home birth safe?
If a hospital transfer is needed, we’ve got you covered. We work closely with local hospitals, including Research Medical Center, to ensure a smooth transition. And don’t worry—we’ll stay by your side throughout the process, providing continuity of care.
Do you support VBAC?
Who will attend my birth?
Can I have a doula or other support people (like my kids) at my birth?
Yes! We love working with doulas, especially for first-time parents and VBACs. You’re welcome to have anyone on your birth team who helps you feel empowered and supported.
If you’d like your older children to attend, we recommend having an additional adult who can step in to care for them if they need a break (or a snack!).
And we always welcome family members to prenatal appointments!
How long do you stay after the birth? Do you clean up?
We typically stay about 2 hours after your baby arrives. During that time, we’ll:
- Check on you and your baby.
- Help you establish breastfeeding.
- Tidy up, throw in a load of laundry, and even take out the trash—so it feels like we were never there!
We’ll visit you back at home 24–48 hours postpartum and again 5-7 days postpartum. We then provide follow-up care in our office at 2-3 weeks, 4 weeks (newborn weight check included) and 6 weeks postpartum.
What makes Midwife KC different?
Our prenatal visits are unhurried, lasting 30–60 minutes (longer for the first visit), so we can answer your questions and truly get to know you. And with Sarah and Cheryl backing each other up, you’ll always have a familiar face by your side.
This sounds like it’s for me—how do I get started?
We’d love to connect with you! To schedule a consultation, send us an email at midwifekc.office@gmail.com or give us a call at 913-214-2162. We’re available Monday–Friday, 9 AM–5 PM. If we miss you, leave a voicemail, and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.
