Wendy was such a blessing during my pregnancy and birth. When I was scared, she prayed for me, encouraged me, and made me feel supported. I was not progressing very much and without hesitation she had a plan and the tools I needed to implement that plan. Also a special shout out to her birth assistant, she also made me feel very supported, like a close friend holding my hand to the bathroom after birth, rubbing my back during labor, I am so thankful to have had each of them with me during the process. I will miss seeing them all the time!

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Wendy and the Tri-Cities Homebirth team in the birth of our first baby. The quality of care provided was exceptional. From the very beginning, they guided us through every step of pregnancy with patience, compassion, and deep knowledge. When it came time for the birth, Wendy’s calm confidence and expertise made all the difference. As the husband, I was so grateful for how approachable they were, always taking time to answer my questions and help me understand how to best support my wife. Wendy, you truly are an answered prayer. We are so thankful for everything you’ve done for our family!

We loved our experience with Tri-Cities Home Birth!! Wendy is a kind and understanding person. We so appreciated that at each prenatal visit, she would lay out the facts and give us time for upcoming decisions, with no pressure or judgement one way or the other. I had gestational diabetes and Wendy helped us navigate that to keep me lower risk throughout the pregnancy. We were able to keep it controlled with diet, exercise, and supplements and I had a perfect size baby boy!! This was my first baby, and we didn’t know what options were available locally for other supportive care. She referred us to an incredible prenatal chiropractor, a lactation consultant, and our pediatrician who have been huge supports to us through pregnancy and postpartum. The network of complimentary care was wonderful. She was amazing at the birth. After a beautiful and fast labor, I unfortunately ended up hemorrhaging, and she managed it quickly, professionally and calmly. I needed some stitches afterwards and she was fast and gentle getting me put back together! What could have been an episode of birth trauma, I instead remember as an unfortunate incident where I received top-level, compassionate care. We loved the level of care we received and our friendship with Wendy. Thank you Wendy! ❤️

I want to take a moment to share our heartfelt gratitude for the incredible services we received from Tri-Cities Home Birth. From our very first appointment through delivery and even during postpartum care, Wendy has been nothing short of wonderful. Her support and expertise made this journey so much smoother for us. We are truly thankful to her and her amazing team for helping bring our daughter into this world. If you’re considering home birth, I can’t recommend them enough!

Can’t express just how grateful I am that I had Wendy and her team for our homebirth. She takes the time during pregnancy appointments to inform and educate while giving you options. Our birth was beautiful. Both my husband and I felt supported, confident, and cared for. I would highly recommend Tri-Cities Home Birth to anyone considering home birth. This was my first baby, and I felt completely empowered from this experience!

It’s hard to put into words the impact that Wendy had on my experience through pregnancy and delivery as I welcomed my third child. Having experienced a previous home birth out of state and then using Wendy I can truly say she is someone you want on your birth team. Through the course of the pregnancy Wendy was able to offer support through her knowledge of nutrition and supplements. I would explain a symptom that would arise and she would offer a natural solution, supplement, or remedy. During labor she extended her knowledge in getting me into optimal birthing positions. What I appreciated most is that during labor she was encouraging while also giving me the space to work through labor on my own accord. When I needed her though she was there to see me through. Wendy gifted me a beautiful birthing experience and I will forever be grateful for her love and support.

Wendy lead me on the most valuable journey of my life and earned my unrelenting trust as my midwife. She is strong, intelligent, and deeply compassionate while providing care that is dedicated and individualized. My questions were always immediately addressed, and my fears dispelled. I felt my baby and I were as safe as could be the whole time. She also has the most incredible team of women by her side all of whom I was blessed to have present throughout my pregnancy, labor, and delivery. Thanks to Wendy and all her shared knowledge and advice, I had a smooth pregnancy, a successful home birth, and a blissful post partum experience. She advocates for, and provides, the birthing experience all women deserve. I cannot recommend her services highly enough!

I read a book when pregnant with my firstborn that said something like, “if women knew what options were available to them they would always choose home birth.” I couldn’t agree with that more. If you’re considering home birth at all you should call Wendy. To be in the comfort and safety of your own home when giving birth and then the days after with your newborn is absolutely priceless. Not to mention the ~$4000 you’ll pay is likely a lot less than a hospital bill. Being a former nurse and having my first in the hospital, I know my second born would have had to go to the NICU and a nervous doctor might have whisked me away to a csection due to baby’s low heart tones and my previous C-section. But because of Wendy’s training and expertise she handled everything perfectly at home and my 6 week old is doing amazingly. I know the idea of a home birth scares some women because they feel that if anything goes wrong they’ll be in danger. Wendy is prepared for anything and appears to me to have much better training than most doctors I’ve met. Please give her a call if home birth is on your mind and I know she’ll put your fears at ease.
