Bethany was our doula for the delivery of our first baby. Our birth took place at home, so we knew we wanted the best people to support us through such a new experience. Bethany was wonderful. She has such a warm and calm presence. She was very encouraging throughout labor, and provided the exact support my husband and I needed. Our labor picked up very quickly. Luckily, Bethany was so easy to reach, and she was at our home right away. Not only was she amazing support during labor, but leading up to the big day as well. She is so knowledgeable on all birth options and decisions that we came across during pregnancy. She had evidence based answers to all of our questions. She was supportive of our birth choices and made me feel confident in our decisions. We feel so blessed that we had her with us on such an important day. We can’t wait to see Bethany again for our next baby.

As a fellow doula, I can truly attest to Gina being an invaluable doula. Not only does she have a wealth of knowledge about pregnancy and birth, but she is kind, patient, unpredjudiced. Gina is a great listener- an essential skill for helping any family reach their birth goals. Without question, Gina is a great addition to any family's birth team!

It is my belief that every mom should be educated and empowered to choose the birth she wants. And to be treated with respect and dignity.

Recent review

I am so thankful I had Rose as my doula for my second birth, a VBAC! The whole experience was a redemptive one, especially with my first being very traumatic. I battled with the dreaded “gestational diabetes” with this pregnancy, Rose checked in often & encouraged me through it all! During labor she did anything to help keep me comfortable, stayed calm, prayed, & kept encouraging me when the pain was intense! I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is wanting a positive birth experience! I had my dream “home birth” experience, thanks to my birth team!!

I was born and raised in south central Kansas. I am a Registered Nurse, a certified First Aid/CPR Instructor, and a Safe Sleep Instructor. I married my best friend in 2023 and our days are filled with home renovation projects and entertaining our St. Bernard puppy, Mabel. I have a fairly restrictive diet, so I love spending time trying out new recipes to satisfy my sweet tooth! I chose to become a Birth Doula because I have a strong, undeniable passion for supporting pregnant people. Nothing brings me greater joy than getting to come alongside women to be their cheerleader and trusted resource. Gentle Heart Doula Care is more than just a job for me -- it is a calling. This is where the Lord has led me and I am determined to do it well! It is my mission to help you feel informed and empowered through personalized care and support. I am thrilled to be able to serve Kansas families as your Birth Doula!

FAQs

What is a midwife?

A midwife is a licensed medical professional who cares for low-risk pregnancies and mothers who want no-to-low intervention deliveries (e.g., home birth, birthing center delivery, water birth).

Can you pay for a midwife with HSA or FSA funds in Wichita, KS?

Yes, you can use Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds to pay for midwifery services, as long as those services are related to medical care. Always check the specific rules of your HSA or FSA plan, as there can be variations in what expenses are considered eligible between different plans.

Are midwives covered by insurance in Wichita, KS?

Whether insurance covers the cost of a midwife in Wichita, KS, depends on the specific insurance plan and provider. Many insurance plans do provide coverage for midwifery services, especially if the midwife is licensed and the care is provided in-network. It's important to check with your insurance company to confirm coverage details, including whether they cover home births or birthing center deliveries, as coverage can vary widely. Additionally, some midwives may offer payment plans or sliding scale fees if insurance does not fully cover the costs. Always verify with both your insurance provider and the midwife before proceeding with care.

How much does a midwife cost in Wichita, KS?

The cost of a midwife in Wichita, KS, can vary depending on the services provided, the midwife's experience, and whether you’re delivering at home, a birth center, or a hospital. On average, midwife services for prenatal care, delivery, and postpartum care may range from $3,000 to $6,000 for out-of-hospital births. Some midwives may offer payment plans or work with insurance providers, which can reduce out-of-pocket expenses. It’s best to contact local midwives or birth centers to get specific pricing tailored to your situation.

What's the difference between a midwife and a doula?

A midwife is a trained health professional who helps women during labor, delivery, and after the birth of their babies. Midwives can provide gynecological examinations, prenatal care, and postpartum support. They are qualified to deliver babies and are trained to handle certain complications during childbirth. A doula, on the other hand, is a non-medical professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula's role is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. They are known for their continuous support, beginning during pregnancy and lasting through the postpartum period. While midwives have a broad scope of practice that is clinical in nature, doulas specialize in the non-clinical aspects of care. They might be preferred by mothers who are looking for continuous bedside support that is not typically provided by the medical staff. Doulas are known for their advocacy for the mother's wishes during childbirth, which can be especially valuable in hospital settings where the mother may desire a birth plan that deviates from standard procedures.

What's the difference between a midwife and an OBGYN?

A midwife is a healthcare professional who specializes in low-risk pregnancies, childbirth, and postpartum care. They typically emphasize a natural and holistic approach, focusing on minimal medical interventions. Midwives often work in birth centers, at home births, or in hospitals, depending on their certification and location. They provide personalized care and support throughout pregnancy and labor and may also assist with breastfeeding and newborn care. An OBGYN is a medical doctor who has completed extensive training, including medical school and a residency, specializing in obstetrics and gynecology. They care for all types of pregnancies, including high-risk cases, and are trained to handle medical complications, perform surgeries (like C-sections), and provide comprehensive reproductive healthcare beyond pregnancy. OBGYNs typically work in hospitals or clinics and can manage a broader range of medical situations.

Can I see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy?

Yes, you can see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy. Midwives are trained to provide care during pregnancy, including for those conceived through IVF, as long as the pregnancy is low-risk. They can help with prenatal care, labor, and delivery, and provide postpartum support. However, if your IVF pregnancy is considered high-risk or involves complications, you may need to work with an obstetrician in collaboration with the midwife to ensure proper care. Always consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best care plan for your situation.
