What We Believe

At Upper Cumberland Midwifery Services our philosophy is based on the understanding that pregnancy is a normal life occurrence, rather than a medical event, and birth is a natural process. We offer professional midwifery care for prenatal, birth, and postpartum periods.

We provide an alternative choice to the medicalized standard of care given to pregnant women at local hospitals. The care is about building a trusting relationship with clients by providing continuity of care.

"We wholeheartedly uphold freedom of choice, and in turn believe women should have the autonomy to decide where to birth and with whom."
