Comprehensive Prenatal Care
One of the key pillars of Beautiful Births is its commitment to comprehensive prenatal care. During your pregnancy, you receive regular prenatal visits, where she conducts thorough health assessments, monitor fetal development, and provides essential education on nutrition and childbirth preparation. She schedules a full hour for prenatal appointments to allow time for any questions that you may have as well as time to chat and get to know each other.

Beautiful Births is a home birth-centered practice. Home births provide a familiar and comfortable setting. Tara will come to your house when labor is established and you are ready for her to be there. Tara offers expertise in natural childbirth techniques, gentle birthing positions, and relaxation methods, ensuring you can embrace the power of your body during labor and delivery. After the birth, she stays to for 2 hours to continue to monitor both you and the baby. She’ll make sure you have something to eat and drink, help you take a shower if you would like, clean up, and even do a load of laundry.
Water Birth Options
If you would like a waterbirth you can use your own bathtub or birth tub, or you may use one of the birthing tubs she can provide. The great thing is that the inflatable birth tubs are included in her fee. She also has an AquaDoula tub, which is heated and will accommodate up to two people.
Postpartum Support and Beyond
The care provided by Beautiful Births extends well beyond childbirth. She continues to support mothers during the postpartum period, offering guidance on newborn care, breastfeeding, and emotional well-being. This ongoing support ensures a smooth transition into motherhood and enhances the overall postpartum experience.
