“I am endlessly grateful to our midwife, Rachel, who supported me through the birth of our daughter. Rachel was a steady, loving, and wise presence the entire time. With Rachel there, I felt as though my choices and my own body’s wisdom were able to lead. I was in a fearless place, completely focused within myself, while also knowing that Rachel was making sure all was well. I felt like the angels had arranged for us the perfect midwife for this beautiful birth of our first baby, and I will tell my daughter the story of her birth, and how she came into the world with ease, with love, and with joy. We remain forever grateful to Rachel for her care, her expertise, and her steady, love-filled presence at our daughter’s birth.”

“Moriah was an essential part of our pregnancy journey and the unfolding of this new chapter in our family’s story. She brought a depth we didn’t even know we were seeking—holding space for us not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. Moriah became a true ally to our family, deeply attuned to our baby and able to communicate with his spirit in a way that brought more reverence and clarity to our pregnancy. Her care helped us birth not only a healthy child, but a stronger bond as a couple and a more connected family.”

“Moriah Melin's calm and confidence steadied my pregnancy and managed our unexpected delivery complications flawlessly. Moriah prepared us for our home birth not only logistically but also mentally and spiritually.

As a family, we are beyond grateful to Moriah for helping us bond and break free of unhealthy patterns of relating to each other. Thank you Moriah for how you have gone above and beyond the call as a midwife to foster a healthy family outcome! “
