We knew there had to be a better way!

Although we had prepared ourselves by taking “Natural Childbirth Classes” with our second birth, the experience turned out to be a nightmare in which the decisions and control were taken away from us. We knew there had to be a better way. The insight we received through Barbie’s training and the motivation it gave us… Read more “We knew there had to be a better way!”

I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything!

I met Barbie when I was 18 years old (I am now 29). She was my moms midwife, her recommendations were high. My mom had four c-sections and then having one other home birth, she wanted a very experienced midwife. Barbie did a great job, and when my brother’s cord was wrapped tight around his… Read more “I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything!”

Barbie Burrage is the best midwife anyone could ask for!

I have used Barbie for my last two births, and plan to use her again when we have another baby. She is knowledgeable, direct, organized, and devoted. This is truly her calling in life! After giving birth to my first daughter in a hospital, the experience was one that I would describe as unsupportive and… Read more “Barbie Burrage is the best midwife anyone could ask for!”

Once I met Barbie I knew she was the midwife for me!

Barbie was referred to me by several ladies in the church I grew up in. Once I met Barbie I knew she was the midwife for me. Her experience as an RN gave me confidence that she would know how best to care for me and my baby throughout my pregnancy and the birth. Barbie… Read more “Once I met Barbie I knew she was the midwife for me!”

Quiet, warm, loving and just as we had prayed!

I found Barbie’s website a few months before getting pregnant after a friend from nursing school had a successful homebirth and knew it was something I was interested in. Shortly after having our positive pregnancy test, I told my husband (who hates all things medical i.e. blood, bodily fluids and hospitals) about homebirth and he… Read more “Quiet, warm, loving and just as we had prayed!”

My husband and I attended the Birthing workshop Barbie taught.

My husband and I attended the Birthing workshop Barbie taught when we decided to have our first baby at home. The practical, down-to-earth discussions and films, the opportunity to listen to the experiences of our fellow classmates and the steady sensitivity of our midwife at the birth, all combined to help us feel confident and… Read more “My husband and I attended the Birthing workshop Barbie taught.”

She is a fantastic midwife with so much experience and excellent advice

We just finished having our second child. Both times we selected Barbie as our midwife. She is a fantastic midwife with so much experience and excellent advice throughout the pregnancy process. When we first started looking for a midwife we didn’t know Barbie at all and after having two children my wife and I both… Read more “She is a fantastic midwife with so much experience and excellent advice”

I would recommend Barbie many times over!

I chose Barbie Burrage for our midwife because I had been referred by some friends who told us that she was a very reputable midwife. After delivering 6 of our children, I was convinced that she had to be the best midwife there ever was. The knowledge base she had for every situation was amazing… Read more “I would recommend Barbie many times over!”

Barbie has become one of our closest friends through this experience!

After our first birth ended in a Cesarean Section for reasons we know now to be unjustified, we attend the Birthing workshop Barbie gave. At that time, we became aware of the realities of hospital birthing situations which led us to investigate the possibility of home birth. We have now had two homebirths and would… Read more “Barbie has become one of our closest friends through this experience!”

I wish I had known her for the first two!

Barbie was my midwife for five out of seven births. I wish I had known her for the first two! I honestly believe a midwife needs to have a calling. Barbie has that calling. Her love, her intuition and her skills are well blended in her calm, supporting presence during births. I recommend her gladly… Read more “I wish I had known her for the first two!”
