Our Certified Nurse Midwives Strive to Be a Partner in Your Care; Providing Pregnancy and Well Woman Care to Women throughout Their Lifetime.
Specialty Areas of Care Include:
Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is best for moms because it reduces the risk of certain cancers; breast milk is best for babies because it provides protection from allergies and certain respiratory infections. Our Lactation Room provides a private space for moms to learn about breastfeeding and receive breastfeeding support from your health care provider.us leo.

Safe Delivery
If you are feeling scared or unsure about keeping your unborn baby, we urge you to talk to your Nurse Midwife or OB provider immediately. Often, the message of Safe Delivery does not get shared until it’s too late: once a baby has been abandoned or murdered.
Please don’t abandon your baby. Safe Delivery allows parents to surrender their newborn child no more than 72 hours old, to an employee inside and on duty at any hospital, fire department, police station, or by calling 9-1-1. Safe Delivery is a safe, legal and anonymous alternative to abandonment or murder and releases the newborn for placement with an adoptive family. Call the Safe Delivery hotline to discuss your options at 866-733-7733.
Remember this is the safe, legal way and anonymous. Visit www.michigan.gov/safedelivery for more information.
