Welcome to The Birth Place

 
Our Philosophy
 

"The woman about to become a mother, or with her newborn infant upon her bosom, should be the object of trembling care and sympathy wherever she bears her tender burden or stretches her aching limbs... God forbid that any member of the profession to which she trusts her life, doubly precious at that eventful period, should hazard it negligently, unadvisedly or selfishly." 

                                                           ~Oliver Wendell Holmes


The Birth Place is a place where women and their families can grow, and experience the joy of childbearing. A place where pregnancy and birth are well-respected, normal processes.

We believe that pregnancy and birth should be treated as the normal, healthy functions that they are. We believe that during this delicate time in a woman's life, she should be treated with care and respect. Through education of this holistic approach, and good prenatal care, we belive that women can have a healthy, natural birth experience without the unnecessary medical interventions that often cause the very problems that they were designed to prevent.
 
Proudly Celebrating 10 years of serving the families of Metro-Detroit
 


It's hard to believe that it's been a decade since the birth place first opened its doors back in 1998.

But here we are celebrating 10 years and many hundreds of lovely births! Thank you Metro-Detroit, for your support, faith and trust. Most of all, Thank you for allowing us to serve as a witness in your amazing experiences and your journeys into parenthood. These experiences have made our lives richer than you'll ever know. We look forward to serving you for many years to come.
