Hospital births might be the norm, but they’re definitely not for everyone. Not only do you have to worry about the germs and the noise, but you also lose a good deal of control over your delivery. Many women decide to ditch the hospital in favor of a home birth, but this also isn’t an option for everyone. If you’ve been considering an unmedicated birth outside of your house, I would love to introduce you to the midwives at the CT Birth Center. This group is dedicated to giving you a profound birth experience in a home-like environment.

The midwives at The CT Birth Center (also known as the Connecticut Childbirth & Women’s Center) have been working with East Coast families since 1997. The center serves most of Connecticut as well as parts of New York and Massachusetts. The midwives are devoted to giving you the birth experience that’s right for you. While they do most of their deliveries within their cozy birth center, they also deliver through the Danbury Hospital. The team is composed of 6 midwives with over 6o years of collective experience. They’ve been present for over 5,500 deliveries and cannot wait to be there for your birth experience!

With the birth center, you’ll receive prenatal appointments with your midwife on the same schedule as you would with an obstetrics office. They can complete all the lab work within the office and send you referrals for your ultrasounds. The appointments are laid back and full of conversation. Your midwife’s goal is to get to know you so they can offer personalized care through every moment of your pregnancy and labor.
The CT Birth Center itself is a comfortable space filled with modern decorations and cozy amenities. Because you’re not hooked up to IVs, you’re able to move around as much as you’d like. You can also eat or drink throughout your labor. In addition to cozy beds, the rooms have large jacuzzi tubs you can ease into to help with any discomfort. They offer laughing gas, and they’re right across the road from Danbury Hospital in case you need to be transferred. You’ll stay for several hours following your delivery before heading home to relax in your own bed.

The midwives offer additional services outside of their birth care. If you’d prefer a more holistic approach to your gynecological health, you can schedule your services at the center. They can offer routine appointments, family planning counseling, birth control counseling, and treatment for infections.

If you’re looking for a comfortable space for your delivery, check out the CT Birth Center. This space provides a home-like environment for your birth experience.

Pregnancy is a time when you have to deal with a lot of unknowns. You get pretty darn connected to that growing bump despite knowing hardly anything about the life growing inside, and as you go through your day, you can’t help but ask endless questions. What will be the first thing that causes them […]

Physical activity is essential for kids’ development. Not only does it give them a constructive outlet to burn their endless energy, but it also provides them with a community while building up their coordination. If you’re looking for a place where your family can get your child introduced to physical activity, I would love to […]

As a luxury motherhood photographer based in Fairfield County, Connecticut, I’ve had the honor of capturing so many precious moments in that first year — but there’s one in particular that’s truly magical: the six-month sitter milestone. This sweet stage — when your baby can (sometimes) sit unassisted — is a perfect in-between: no longer […]

In recent years, therapy has grown more normalized. As we grow more aware of our mental health, people are starting to understand the merit of working through their struggles with a professional. And if we as adults have a hard time processing our emotions, imagine how much more difficult it can be for kids. On […]

A roundup of My Favorite Family Christmas Pajamas The crisp air this morning told me one thing — I am not prepared for winter. I literally just ordered my son a jacket, and after our chilly walk to the bus stop today, I realized mittens are next on the list. The cold was no joke! […]

Your baby’s first birthday is such a milestone — a celebration of one whole year of love, learning, and countless little “firsts.” Choosing a gift for a one-year-old is more than just finding a toy; it’s about choosing something meaningful, safe, and joyful. Whether you’re shopping for your own child or a special little one […]
