Amanda Counter and Daphne Welsh
are the midwife and wellness behind our name.
​
Our journey into women's health began in the summer of 2000 when Amanda was pregnant with her second baby and seeking gentle birthing options. Six months later Daphne was born unassisted at home.
Amanda went on to become a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM). She provides community-based midwifery services including prenatal, homebirth, postpartum and well-care. Daphne grew up surrounded by wise women and birth work. She attended her first birth when she was 13 and found her passion for fertility awareness at just 17. She is a fertility awareness educator, birth assistant, postpartum doula, and placenta specialist.
​
We are honored to be able to serve you throughout your childbearing years.
