Maria is spectacular 💜 She sat by my side for over 8 hours while I delivered a baby preterm that we knew wasn’t going to make it. She was so supportive through every minute of that experience. Because of her care and support I called her the second I found out I was pregnant again! I’ve had a few hospital births and wanted to try something different, something more intimate and natural. We had an incredible home birth and I couldn’t imagine ever delivering in a hospital again! The only person I can thank for that is Maria! I can’t say enough amazing things about her! - Jeni S.

Maria was incredible - there are countless things she did right, but more than anything I appreciated the fact that she listened to me and validated how I was feeling. I transferred care to her at 34 weeks and I’m so glad that I did. Even though my birth didn’t go as planned, she was with me supporting and encouraging me… - she truly practices evidence based medicine and values informed consent. I highly recommend her! ❤️ - Danielle W.

“Maria is compassionate, deeply knowledgable & competent, intuitive, calm and nurturing. Her knowledge & trust in the birth process allows her to stand calmly by with a watchful eye, or quickly & gently engage when needed. She was the perfect midwife for me and a warrior midwife that any women would be blessed to have…on their birth team! ❤️” - Rebecca S.

“Very wise, understanding, compassionate. She definitely went above and beyond her call and because of her, after two traumatic hospital births, we finally experienced healing in our home. It is so amazing to be honored, respected and listened to during the entire course of care. I cannot recommend her enough!!” - Natalie S.

Personal Review

“I have had the fortunate opportunity of apprenticing under Maria for almost 4 years. She is an incredibly skilled and intuitive Midwife. I’ve been able to watch her take care of many, many growing families. She always leaves them feeling loved, respected and confident... I highly recommend Mountain Home Birth to any and all that are seeking superior community midwifery care..” - Teryl Stay, DEM
