Your experience after giving birth matters! Here’s how we help.
After my midwife went on leave with for a surgery, I was no longer comfortable with the choice of providers. I had looked into working with Stephanie earlier on in my pregnancy, but didn't think my husband would go for it. But I was actually wrong and we decided to switch to Stephanie I think like at 33 weeks or something. She is an amazing midwife- she is very knowledgeable and gave way more insight than I've ever gotten from other providers. She caught a lot of things that my previous provider had not and took her time with each visit. The postpartum care was also so amazing and provides way more support than your typical OB. We were going for a homebirth, but unfortunately I ended up having to transfer after two days of labor. We knew this was a possibility and Stephanie always had our best interest at heart. Obviously it was not something she could have prevented. I was initially upset about not having the homebirth I envisioned, but realized that laboring at home probably prevented me from having a C-section- since most hospitals wouldn't let you labor for that long. It served its purpose and I am so grateful to Stephanie and her team. I would highly highly recommend. Best quality in New England!
I CANNOT recommend Stephanie enough for pregnancy, labor, and postpartum care. I left every prenatal appointment empowered, educated, and never felt rushed. The immediate postpartum care was everything I could have dreamed of. From the medical care to alone time with my partner and baby, Stephanie and Janelle were sure to put our wishes first even though it was the middle of the night. The days and weeks that followed, Stephanie & Janelle held space for me to process my birth and answer every question I had. Stephanie and Janelle are kind, attentive, knowledgeable, and an amazing listeners. I would choose Roots Midwifery over and over again.
I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Stephanie. Each appointment she took the time to check in with me and get to know and my situation. By the time I gave birth, I felt totally comfortable with her which I feel is pretty crucial to a positive birth experience. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone thinking of having a home birth. I was lucky to have her at mine.
Stephanie is absolutely amazing! My dream was to have a home water birth as we expanded our family, and Stephanie made that dream a beautiful reality. After my first hospital birth, I knew a home birth was right for me. Hearing wonderful stories about Stephanie from women in our community, I knew she was the midwife I could relate to, especially as a woman of color facing unique challenges in pregnancy. Stephanie became everything I needed after losing my mother in 2020. Throughout our prenatal appointments, Stephanie never rushed and always created a safe space for me to share. She listened, understood, and offered unwavering support. In the absence of my mother, Stephanie filled that void with compassion and guidance. She not only helped me plan for life after birth but also connected seamlessly with my oldest child and husband. Stephanie went above and beyond, being available to answer questions and assist my family, making the entire journey extraordinary. Roots Midwifery LLC exceeded my expectations, and as I transition into fertility work, I'm certain that when I return to birth advocacy, Stephanie will be at the top of my list. She's not just a midwife; she's an inspiration, a pillar of support, and someone I wholeheartedly trust. Choosing Stephanie was one of the best decisions for our family's journey, and I can't recommend her and Roots Midwifery LLC enough!
