Welcome to Highland Birth Support

This business is dedicated to providing better birthing experiences to families in the Highland counties and surrounding areas of West Virginia. As a Homebirth Midwife, I work to help families educate themselves and make their own best decisions throughout the childbearing year. I would love to support you with holistic care and mentorship focused on your needs and goals.

Without reservation I believe that everyone should have access to better birthing options and comprehensive support, and my service offerings reflect that. In addition to being a Certified Professional Midwife, I have also worked to diversify my offerings to include homebirth midwifery care, doula support for hospital births, breastfeeding support and education, and herbal consultation. If you would like support, book a consultation online today.

Questions for the Midwife?

If you have questions or you would like to purchase services, please contact me via email at highlandbirth@gmail.com or use the contact tab. I’m happy to help.

So, you see the little line on your pregnancy test, now what? Next steps can feel uncertain, but I am happy to consult about your birth options whether or not you desire a homebirth. Using my experience as a doula, I am happy to share my knowledge of local hospital birth options. Above all, I want you to feel confident in your choices! Let’s build better support for your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

Let me help you plan…

Hope is not a plan. When things feel uncertain, hoping for the best doesn’t always work out in our favor. Value yourself and your experience and make a plan with me! Plan for a better pregnancy, birth, postpartum, or lactation journey. Consider this an investment in yourself and your family.

You can book an appointment for planning alone! While I love to help you come up with a Birth Plan, that’s not all I can offer. I commonly meet with parents prenatally in order to plan things such as: communicating with your provider, working towards a successful VBAC, pumping when you return to work, building health and resilience into your postpartum, talking to your little kids about new baby, and more! In summary, I’m here to help. Book a consult now!

The support I received throughout my pregnancy and subsequent home birth with Maureen was one of the best experiences of my life. Maureen understands how to provide collaborative care, and I always felt like I was a big part of every decision along the way. I could not recommend her more. One million stars!

Maureen is changing the world one birth at a time! Cannot recommend enough. Such a compassionate and amazing person. Was our midwife the entire pregnancy and our doula for induction. Couldn't have gone through it without her. If youre not sure if you need her services, I promise you do!

Maureen at Highland Birth Support was the midwife for my 2VBAC/first homebirth! She is just the right amount of nurturing and tough! I truly doubt I would have felt safe with any other provider! If i were going to have more babies, all of them would be birthed with her as my midwife. I continue to seek her out for herbal support nearly a year after my baby was born. 10/5 stars! Go ahead and schedule a consult- shes amazing. and I wish everyone could have someone like her in their bubble of support when they give birth!

Expressing my gratitude for this amazing lady! Maureen is such a phenomenal midwife, wife, mother, friend, and supporter. she has worked with me throughout this pregnancy in every way imaginable: financially, mentally, physically, you name it, she's been there! even when i haven't been the most cooperative patient. i am truly blessed to have found someone as understanding and supportive as she is. Beyond thankful she chose me to be able to experience this incredible journey I decided to embark on.

Her new office space is phenomenal! She has worked incredibly hard creating what i felt as a safe space for her Mamma's & their children. it is beyond beautiful, it is beyond inviting, you wont regret checking it out! Momma and most definitely kid approved! Ladies, she does have some openings if you are interested in homebirth. Also a decision I feel like you will never regret making.

I did an herbal consult with Maureen with a focus on fertility support. She is caring, thorough, and her main focus is learning about each client’s goals. She tailors everything to each individual and is knowledgeable in all her areas of practice. My only regret is living far away from her, as I would have 100% chosen a home birth with her over any other option.

Thanks so much for your kind words Andie!

Maureen is capable and confident, and has an extremely calming demeanor. She walks into the room and with her presence of mind and experience helps to de escalate the situation and instantly help things move forward positively. Her knowledge of current, research-based lactation support information is unparalleled. Hopefully someday all providers will put in the time learning and staying current on best practices in the way that Maureen does. Don't register for that fancy baby container or wipe warmer, go ahead and set yourself up for success by booking a consult with Maureen to help you reach your body feeding goals. Best baby related "purchase" ever!

Thanks so much Bailey! Loved working with you
