The cost of a midwife in Monroe, LA 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.

    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.

Many insurance plans provide coverage for midwifery services, especially if the midwife is certified and licensed and if the services are considered medically necessary. You should contact your insurance provider to confirm coverage details, including in-network midwives and any out-of-pocket costs. Additionally, check with the midwife to ensure they accept your insurance. Some plans may also cover home births or birthing centers, but this varies.

  • Experience and Specialization

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

I am the doula behind Noble + Grace Hollow. I am a graduate of Lee University with a degree in Psychology and certified through Birthworker Academy. A wife and mother of two, I am experienced with birth in the hospital setting and also in a homebirth setting. My diverse childbirth experiences allow me to assist you in achieving the birth you always dreamed of and I focus my energy on providing mothers with the support necessary to make the transition into motherhood with strength. My passion for birth began in 2015 and has now flourished into a business that I pour my soul into to serve my clients. Some fun facts about me: - I am an aspiring homesteader and current backyard chicken farmer - Love being outdoors and fitness - Can never answer those quizzes that ask either sweet tea or coffee because I love both

Bekah was my Prenatal/Birthing Class Instructor. She also was my doula throughout my 2 day labor and outstanding support throughout my VBAC. Bekah's ability to educate and talk you through decision making is top notch. She is a great communicator, and available when she says she will be. Bekah has a true gift for helping women empower themselves through childbirth. I firmly believe I would not have had the birth experience I wanted without her by my side. My husband, Bradley, agrees. I hope to be able to have her support throughout the future! Proud to call her my doula and my friend.

I'm a passionate birthworker since 2020, specializing in Lamaze/Breathology, childbirth education, prenatal yoga, and birth/postpartum doula services. Based in McComb but originally from Cincinnati, I proudly serve the wonderful communities of Southwest Mississippi and Southeast Louisiana In 2024, I took a big step in my career by deciding to begin my midwifery journey, and fully stepping into my midwife era. Now, as an apprenticing midwife/monitriece, I focus on traditional midwifery and herbalism, bringing ancient wisdom to modern birth practice, while still also serving the community as a full spectrum doula. As a homeschooling mom of three energetic, young, vivacious girls, I deeply value the importance of providing comprehensive and compassionate care to families during the childbearing year. I'm dedicated to empowering women and their families to make informed choices about their birth and postpartum experiences, ensuring they feel supported every step of the way.

My experience with Herlistic Living was truly professional, meaningful, and beyond my expectations. From the very beginning, Mrs. Adriana Hawkins-Smith was extremely attentive and knowledgeable. She took the time to answer every question I had thoroughly and clearly, whether it was by phone, text message, or during our in-person conversations. Her communication was consistent, reassuring, and made me feel completely confident throughout the entire process. The transfer of my placenta from the hospital to her care was smooth and stress-free, with no issues at all. Mrs. Hawkins-Smith handled everything with the utmost professionalism and respect. She did an amazing job preparing my placenta fertilizer, and the umbilical cord gift was beautifully done and very meaningful to me. I am truly grateful for her care, attention to detail, and dedication to her work. I sincerely thank her for everything she has done for me and would highly recommend Herlistic Living to anyone looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and trustworthy services.
