More and more, over the past two decades, women are taking more active roles in exploring their childbirth options. The most basic of these is whether to give birth in the home or in a hospital setting. Another fundamental question is “who do I want to assist me in the delivery of my child?” These choices and more are yours to make.

Women and the Experience of
Home Birth in Pennsylvania:

Working throughout the area, we serve as midwives for both hospital and home birth in Pennsylvania. We are here to help you, keep you informed and to honor your decisions concerning the birth of your child.

If giving birth at home is important to you, the midwives at Midwifery Care Associates will do everything we can to help you bring it about.

The choice of low-risk women to give birth at home is seen as a recognition of the rights of these individuals and their families to share responsibility for their own birth screening and preventive prenatal care. Supported by individual medical back-up plans for unanticipated birth complications, a safe and healthy outcome may be achieved with home birth in PA.

Should a hospital be your choice, we are affiliated with one of the best and most supportive facilities in New Jersey. Our longstanding and unique relationship with Capital Health physicians and nurses ensures continuity of care, as well as a level of support that respects the wishes of the mother and her family. Our hospital admitting privileges at Capital Health Hopewell Campus, just off Exit 3 of I-95, make us part of the Baby-Friendly team of nurses, physicians, and helpful staff. If risk factors arise that necessitate a hospital birth, you are secure in knowing that your care will continue with your own trusted birth team.

At MCA, we believe every woman has the right to safe, sensitive care, provided with respect for her individual wishes, cultural background, and her right to self-determination. We feel the healthy family unit is the basis for our communities’ and ultimately our nation’s health. Our goal is to provide care in a manner which promotes family strength and unity. We share mutual responsibilities with each of our clients in promoting and maintaining high standards for quality care, and keeping the lines of communication open and honest.
