Make an Informed ChoiceWe practice using the Midwives Model of Care, which is based on the fact that pregnancy and childbirth are normal life processes and not medical conditions. It supports parents as they make the journey through their own pregnancy, labor, and childbirth. We work along side our clients in order to promote a healthy pregnancy and keep them informed with the best information available, so they can make decisions about the mother's care. If needed, we recommend appropriate actions if any complications arise. READ MORE>

Our Goals
Wichita Birth Assistance was founded in 2010 by Cynthia Barger, as a resource organization for moms, doulas, and midwives. Primarily, we provide doula and midwifery services as well as information for other services that you might be seeking during your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum periods. We are women who are both trained and experienced, as well as dedicated to serving families during this very special time in their lives. Our goal is to be informational and also facilitate finding the birth support that is most suitable for you. Wichita Birth Assistance works with respect and integrity in our community, whether in a hospital setting or home setting. We do not replace the father or support person, but encourage their participation in a way that is meaningful to the mother, baby, and them. Our support is non-medical and is focused on the emotional, physical, and spiritual well being of both mother and baby. Wichita Birth Assistance primarily serves Wichita, KS and it’s surrounding areas.

News and Updates: Due to the increasing high demand of midwifery services we are limiting the number of clients we accept per month. There are midwives in the area that we are happy to refer you to should we be full for your birth month. We offer complimentary "Meet and Greet" appointments. This is an opportunity for you to meet us, ask questions about our care, and ask questions about the finances, including insurance. If you would like to have your benefits verified with your insurance please feel free to use the VOB link. Do not try to verify benefits if you have BCBS of Kansas. They are not providing for out of hospital births with CPMs at this time. We can discuss your benefits over the phone or at your initial appointment. Please feel free to call or email us to confirm a time to attend the "Meet and Greet". If you are already sure that this is the care that you want we can set up your initial appointment. The "Meet and Greet" is not necessary in order to start care with us. |
