Edine Warren Midwife in Brooklyn, NY

As a fifth time mother experiencing my very first home birth, I cannot say enough about how incredible Edine is! Even with my past birth experiences, bringing a baby into the world at home felt like a sacred new step, and Edine provided the exact safety, respect, and peace I was looking for. From our very first prenatal visit, she made me feel deeply heard and supported. During and incredibly fast and intense delivery, Edine's calm grounded presence and expert guidance allowed me to trust my body completely. The postpartum care she provided in the tender weeks that followed, was filled with so much warmth and dedication. Edine is an exceptional midwife who brings immense heart and skill to her practice. I am endlessly grateful to her for helping me achieve such a safe, beautiful, and empowering birth experience at home.

I’m so grateful for Edine and the care she provided during such an important time in my life. She took me on very last minute, and from the beginning she was incredibly supportive, comforting, and reassuring. What I appreciated most was the way she knew how to be present without being overbearing. She gave me space to listen to and trust my own body and judgment, while still making me feel completely supported and cared for. I never felt pushed toward her preferences, beliefs, or way of doing things. Instead, she respected my choices and trusted me, which allowed me to feel relaxed, safe, and confident throughout my birth experience. She offered reassurance when I needed it and space when I needed that too. That balance is such a gift in a midwife. I’m incredibly thankful that our paths crossed when they did and that Edine was there to help welcome Psalm into the world. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a midwife who is warm, respectful, reassuring, and truly honors the birthing person and their instincts.

Wow! I’m a first time mom with a very low pain threshold so when my husband and I found out we were pregnant in the fall of ‘25, the idea of a home birth was not even a thought. We didn’t even know home births were possible. We only knew that I am needle-phobic which means fatally afraid of the idea of epidural, much less posing for one in the midst of contractions and that we were very suspicious of the medical industrial complex. After consuming tons of pregnancy vlogs, we were introduced to home birthing and entertained the idea of a midwife. Edine was the second midwife we interviewed and after our chat we knew right away, yes, we’re going to get on the home birth path at around the 25-week mark. Naturally, I had TONS of questions. TONS! My husband did too and Edine is the embodiment of patience. She literally held our hand throughout the journey, always available and ever generous with her time. When it was time for birth, I was 1.5 weeks past my due date and Edine knew my aversion to getting induced at the hospital w/ the varying cocktails of drugs they’re likely to use so she sent me a natural induction recipe which worked within 3 HOURS!!! Very effective LOL. At short notice, Edine had to rush to my home to help me birth my beautiful baby girl and what a beautiful labor experience it was and it might be the peace of mind of having an attentive and patient midwife (along with an incredible husband) that put me in the state of mind to endure the pain of contractions with grace even with my extreme aversion to pain. It didn’t end there though. Her postpartum care was even more nurturing and attentive. My daughter and I both had to be admitted to the hospital for complications and Edine, while drawing on her vast network of midwives and medical health professionals, helped my husband and I navigate the process so that we weren’t alone. My husband and I couldn’t be happier that home birth is an option in NYC and that we found Edine to care for us at our first attempt. How fortunate we are. We hope more mothers opt for home births and are fortunate enough to discover Edine. Thank you, Edine.
