The Birth Center was created for healthy pregnant women who want a relaxed, natural childbirth surrounded by family and friends. The Birth Center offers a comfortable home-like environment and quality care provided by our staff midwives and their apprentices.

We support the “Midwives Model of Care.”

We considerehome and Birth Center births a safe option for women who are healthy and who have uncomplicated pregnancies. If a hospital birth is necessary or the best choice for the woman and her family, we will work in collaboration with her doctor in order to provide continuity of care and choice.

One of five women in Taos County, New Mexico choose to birth at home or in our Birth Center.  This is the highest rate of out-of-hospital births in the country.

The Birth Center is a non-profit organization and has a rich history of serving the diverse population of Northern New Mexico.
