I offer both. I see clients in my beautiful Long Island City office on Thursdays and offer home visits on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. My office is a calm, shared healing space intentionally designed to support your nervous system. Mondays and Fridays are left open for rescheduling in case I’m attending a birth.

I limit my calendar to 2–3 births per month. This allows me to stay grounded, present, and fully available for each family. It’s the pace that keeps me aligned with the kind of care I believe in - connected, not clinical.

Fees vary depending on services. I’m out-of-network but provide superbills for insurance reimbursement, and work with a billing company that can help you request an in-network exception. New York State requires insurance to cover homebirth care, and many marketplace and Medicaid plans do offer coverage.

Yes. I’m committed to making homebirth care financially accessible for good candidates. Payment plans and sliding scale options are available depending on your insurance situation and financial need.

Prenatal visits are relaxed, detailed, and designed to meet the full spectrum of your needs. We check in on your physical and emotional wellbeing, your baby’s growth, nutrition, put in any lab requests if needed, and work on your overall preparation for labor and postpartum. I don’t follow a strict checklist - I let the conversation unfold so we can address what matters most to you.

I primarily serve clients within NYC. I do travel outside of the city when possible, depending on distance and the logistics of on-call availability.

Item descriptionI am trained in breech birth and repeat my clinical training every two years to keep my skillset fresh.

I have attended a small handful of carefully considered breech births.

Candidacy is on a case to case basis, and includes careful consideration of your comfort level with my minimal experience, and with the risks involved with the breech birth itself.

Should the need for transfer arise in labor due to an urgent clinical concern we would make our way to the closest L&D unit.

My aim is curating a transition to hospital with articulations that are as smooth and coherent as possible.

This involves calling the hospital ahead of time and explaining the entirety of your clinical picture, and why we are coming in, escorting you to the hospital and making sure the staff have all necessary information regarding your pregnancy in order for them to provide comprehensive, informed assessment and care.

If we are worried about how baby is responding to their birth journey, I will remain with you until we know that they are adjusted and once again working collaboratively to make this birth happen.

If we are going in for pain relief, I will stay with you until you are comfortable and ready to sleep.

If you are going in for an induction, I will come along for admission and make sure you are accommodated with a plan you feel comfortable and confident with.

Please note that I do not have hospital privileges so I won’t be able to manage your care as a lead provider, but I can facilitate a transfer that is timely, as well as work closely with the team as to streamline a cohesive handover of care.

I can receive you postpartum and provide the same protocol you would receive as part of my practice if you birthed at home.

As much as I would love to eliminate the need for hospital transfer completely - that is not within my skill set.

But you have my word that I will do everything within my power to balance the scales and increase the odds of you having as positive of an experience as possible.

Yes. I provide four postpartum visits: one within 24–48 hours of birth (including newborn screenings), one at 3–4 days, another at 3 weeks, and a final visit at 6 weeks in my office. These visits support your recovery, emotional wellbeing, lactation, and the integration of your birth experience.

Your partner plays a vital role in your birth. I don’t replace them - I support them. Whether they’re your husband, wife, co-parent or chosen support person, I guide them to stay grounded, offer effective care, and take breaks when needed. I make sure they feel involved and confident, not overwhelmed or sidelined. The feedback I hear most often: "I felt so included."

Every birth I attend includes a trained birth assistant. They arrive closer to the pushing phase, help manage equipment, keep things running smoothly, assist with immediate postpartum care, and help clean up the space. All of my BAs are also doulas and lactation counselors. They know how to step into a birth quietly and efficiently, without disrupting the energy of the room.

While most of birth is non-medical, I’m fully prepared for emergencies. I bring postpartum hemorrhage meds, IV fluids, oxygen, and neonatal resuscitation gear, and I keep my clinical skills up to date with regular drills. I also bring a curated selection of plant medicines and homeopathics that I’ve used safely for over 15 years. You may never see these tools - but they’re there if needed.

I always recommend hiring a Doula. While I provide clinical care and emotional presence, Doulas are essential for continuous labor support, especially early on. They compliment my work immensely and often come to a birth much earlier then I need to arrive. Having a Doula ensures that your birth partner can rest and remain confident in their role as a support person. Doulas bring expertise, comfort, and encouragement to the entire process. If you’re having your first baby, having a Doula can make a huge difference!

Yes. I have two birth pools and all the accessories. All you need is a liner, a hose, and a good stack of towels. Many clients labor in water for comfort, even if they choose to birth on land.

Absolutely. I offer free consults to discuss your needs, answer questions, and make sure we’re the right fit. You’re welcome to schedule a meet in person at my LIC office on Thursdays or book in a virtual appointment.
