The NYC Homebirth Colletive serves the families of the greater NYC area by providing a space for homebirth midwives to come together to learn, grow, uphold best practices, and share resources.

The midwives of the NYC Homebirth Collective provide guidance and care to all people, for whom home birth is appropriate, through pregnancy and into parenthood.  We advocate for NYC homebirth midwives and homebirth midwifery at large in order to preserve the legal choice of homebirth and individual autonomy without coercion in pregnancy care.
