Kathy's Birth Suite ~Your Home Away from Home
Kathy's Birthing Suite is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood on one level of a home in Wichita, KS, close to E. Kellogg and Webb Rd. Not only is the neighborhood safe to walk in, there is a park nearby with a paved walking trail available. The Birth Suite is modern and has a spacious birth tub that allows for deep-water immersion. Some will find comfort in using the tub for pain management while others will want a waterbirth. The Birth Suite is also equipped with labor tools such as birth and peanut balls, a TENS unit, a shower, essential oils with a diffuser, and nitrous oxide for extra comfort if desired.
