Laura Perkins Midwifery is a home birth practice serving Dallas, TX and the surrounding areas. Midwifery services include personalized care during pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Pregnancy and childbirth are formative and significant times of growth.  As your midwife, I will provide care that is crafted around your unique physical, emotional and mental needs.

Hi, I’m Laura Perkins LM, CPM. After receiving midwifery care during my first pregnancy and birth I knew that I wanted to be able to provide that kind of care and support to others. I trained to become a birth assistant soon afterwards and after a few years of experience, I began pursuing midwifery. I have been attending births for over 7 years and it’s a dream come true to be able to do this work.

Care

Midwifery care is based on the fact that pregnancy and birth are normal life processes. My role is to monitor your physical, psychological and social wellbeing throughout pregnancy, birth and postpartum. You will receive personalized care that includes education and counseling during your prenatal care, hands-on assistance during labor and birth as-well-as postpartum support.

During the course of your pregnancy, you will receive 8-10 prenatal appointments. We will focus on the physical and emotional aspects of pregnancy, prepare for birth and explore options to consider during your pregnancy, birth and postpartum. You and your baby’s health and wellbeing will be monitored throughout your care. Routine laboratory testing and genetic screening are provided.
