Payment + Fees

Home Birth

Our total fee for prenatal care, labor and birth and postpartum care is $6000. We currently do not accept insurance so all clients are considered self- pay. We work with a biller who can submit a claim on your behalf at the end of your care to get some of your fee reimbursed by your insurance company. We offer a sliding scale to help make our fees accessible to people from all economic backgrounds. See below for sliding scale info.

Our fee includes:

• $600 deposit at the initial prenatal visit to hold your spot in our practice

• The total fee includes the $600 assistant fee, common with other midwifery practices

• The remainder of the fee must be paid by 36 weeks gestation, unless we have a payment plan or barter in place. We will terminate care / transfer care to another provider if not paid in full by 36 weeks.

We encourage those with access to financial wealth (including access to family wealth) to pay our full fee. Please use the image below to help determine where you fall on the sliding scale.

Those with the financial resources are encouraged to contribute to our equity fund (see below) and pay an additional 10-50% of the full fee to support accessible midwifery care for all people.

Sliding Scale options

For those with less financial resources, please use the image above to place yourself on the sliding scale. We accept a limited number of clients at the reduced sliding scale rates.

Sliding Scale Option 1

$5000 total fee for prenatal, labor and birth and postpartum care. This is appropriate for those who self-identify with the middle bottle above.

Sliding Scale Option 2

$4000 total fee for prenatal, labor and birth and postpartum care. This is appropriate for those who self-identify with the right-most bottle above.

For information and intentions behind sliding scale, please check out the Worts and Cunning Apothecary article by Alexis Cunningfolk. Thanks to Wildflower Midwifery for the midwifery care sliding scale models.
