The cost of a midwife in Fort Collins, CO can be influenced by several factors:

  • Type of Midwife

    Certified Nurse-Midwives (CNMs) who work in hospital settings may have different pricing than Certified Professional Midwives (CPMs) who attend home births or birth center deliveries.

  • Birth Setting

    Hospital births with a midwife typically cost less out-of-pocket when covered by insurance, while home births and birth center deliveries may have different fee structures.

  • Scope of Services

    Many midwives offer comprehensive packages that include prenatal visits, labor and delivery support, and postpartum care, which can affect the overall cost.

  • Insurance Coverage

    Colorado Medicaid covers certified nurse-midwife care in Fort Collins, including prenatal, birth, and postpartum services, as required of Medicaid programs nationwide. For home or birth-center deliveries attended by licensed or certified professional midwives, reimbursement varies by plan and does not extend to every Colorado Medicaid member. The local market is modest, with six midwives within 60 miles. Private insurance benefits depend on the individual policy.

  • Experience and Specialization

    Midwives with extensive experience, additional certifications, or specializations such as VBAC support or water birth may charge higher rates.

  • Geographic Location

    Midwifery costs can vary based on the cost of living and demand for midwifery services in your specific area.

When considering hiring a midwife in Fort Collins, CO, it's advisable to research and interview several midwives to find one who aligns with your birth plan, preferences, and budget.

As a dedicated midwife assistant and student midwife, I have cultivated a rich tapestry of experience in the realm of holistic birth work over the past ten years. My journey began with a deep passion for supporting expecting families through the transformative experience of childbirth, and this passion has only grown with time. Working as a midwife assistant, I have honed my skills in providing compassionate care and support to mothers during labor, delivery, and the postpartum period. I thrive on creating a nurturing environment where families feel safe and empowered to embrace the birth process. My holistic approach focuses on the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of childbirth, recognizing that each birth experience is unique and deserving of individualized care. In my role, I collaborate closely with midwives, offering hands-on assistance during labor, including comfort measures and support for the birthing person. I take pride in my ability to provide emotional reassurance and physical assistance, helping to alleviate fears and anxiety while fostering a positive birthing atmosphere. As a student midwife, I actively engage in my education, seeking out opportunities to expand my knowledge and skills in midwifery practices. I understand the importance of blending evidence-based practices with holistic care, which allows me to support families in a well-rounded manner. In addition to my work during labor and delivery, I offer postpartum support to new parents, recognizing the importance of this transition. My postpartum care includes education on breastfeeding, newborn care, and emotional support as families adjust to their new roles. I am dedicated to empowering parents with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive during this critical time. With a decade of experience in holistic birth work, I am committed to making a positive impact in the lives of families, ensuring they have the support and resources they need to navigate the beautiful journey of childbirth and parenthood.

Hello, my name is Marissa and I'm honored to meet you. I am fascinated by the innate, primitive, and beautiful ability of our bodies to create new life. A hodgepodge of things led me to becoming a certified birth doula and yoga instructor. The two most influential being the births of my own babes. Those close to me would say I have a unique ability to calm a situation, hold a positive space, and intuitively allow things to be. These qualities made sense as a Doula. Additionally, yoga is a big part of my life (a lifestyle, I'd say...) and was immensely helpful through my pregnancies. That's why I offer a holistic approach with prenatal yoga to prepare your mind/body/spirit for an optimal birth. As an LGBTQIA+ doula, I understand that families can be built in many different ways. All that matters is that when a family is created, it happens on a foundation of love, support, trust, and safety. For birthing people, my intention is to support you tenaciously in having the most empowering, transformative, and safe birthing experience as possible. We are not meant to birth alone. As human beings bringing new human beings into the world, it is pivotal to feel affirmed and validated during our most vulnerable and authentic moments. I want you to look back on your birth experience and feel triumphant! No matter what you’ve been through in the past, or what you are envisioning currently, I am here to 100% support your goals and help them come to fruition. For those not birthing and creating a family in a different way, my intention is to support you through all aspects of your unique experience; Planning, transitioning, bringing baby home, etc. I can offer resources and referrals for all of your family's needs. More importantly I can provide Empathy, Compassion, and Presence.

We hired Marissa to be our birth doula and we couldn't be happier with that choice. She visited us couple of times before the due date and she was with us throughout labor and delivery and also saw us a couple of times after the birth of our son. Having her with us in the delivery room was very helpful as she coached me through the contractions consistently. She also supported and cheered us on during difficult times and helped us make the right choices for our labor and delivery. She is really sweet and we connected with her instantly since day 1. We highly recommend her.

I'm a licensed homebirth midwife serving Boulder, Longmont, the Peak-to-Peak and Northern Colorado. I've been attending births since 2001 and launched my midwifery practice in 2009. I'm an Enneagram 3; Capricorn Sun, Libra Moon & Libra Rising; and Empress Tarot archetype. When I work with families in the perinatal time, we engage in a soul-level contract together. I love holding space as women go deeply within and are transformed by the sacred space of birth. I value informed decision-making, critical thinking, connection, and hugs. Learning and sharing knowledge brings me joy. I'm trained in several Bodywork modalities: craniosacral and myofascial release, and the Arvigo techniques of Maya abdominal therapy. It's a great honor to teach at birth conferences and lead classes & workshops in my community. I bring extensive knowledge of herbs, homeopathy, flower essences and nutritional supplements. Being truly holistic, I also use conventional medicine when indicated. I'm a married mother of two home-birthed and naturally raised children. I'm also an herbalist, gardener, hiker and rollerblader.

Adrienne is an incredible human and midwife -- we are eternally grateful we found her! She is supportive, warm, wise, funny, relatable, patient, knowledgable, and grounded. We had a dream water birth at home! And a great start with our newborn baby boy. We used a different midwife with our daughter and the difference was so vast -- Adrienne made me feel so supported and safe, and I know that helped us have the birth we desired. I also loved all the little touches Adrienne did, like postpartum snack mixes for digestion, the "closing the bones" ceremony at 6 weeks, and the placenta art just to name a few. I wish we were having another baby and that we could work with Adrienne again!

A Coloradoan, Born and Raised, and a mother of three. I am deeply passionate about supporting pregnant women to and through their birth experiences. I vow to guide birthing persons through the threshold of transition, create safe space, and honor their intuition. Through selfless service, resources, support, and healing touch we can come back to the ancient way of honoring the bringers of life, as they transform and process the rawness of their birth. Certified holistic doula through The Matrona, with studies from Birth Arts International, and certified Sacred Postpartum Mother Roaster.

Stephanie brings it! She makes the entire pregnancy, birth & postpartum experience so special and sacred. She is a master ceremonialist and always, I mean always, has flowers and magical honey. You will be so doted upon: from your first visit together; to your mother blessing ceremony; all the birth waves; to mother roasting, belly wraps, and yummy nourishing broths; to an intuitive placental reading; to expert breastfeeding support; to the final bittersweet closing ceremony. She will make your birth space cavelike and sparkly with fairy lights, candles, affirmations, a wonderful fan, and flowers. She will guide you through the waves and challenges, keeping you grounded and cracking jokes for levity. She's also a mama so she deeply understands what her clients are going through. All I can say is Dou-la-la!
