Our Birthing Center

Mat-Su Midwifery Birth Center offers three peaceful suites to choose from for your birth experience. Our team looks forward to guiding you around our relaxed birthing environment!
Why Choose an Accredited Birth Center?
Choosing a CABC-accredited birth center like Mat-Su Midwifery means choosing care that meets the highest national standards for safety, quality, and client-centered support. As the only accredited birth center in the Mat-Su Valley and one of just three in Alaska, our accreditation isn’t just a title—it reflects our commitment to staying accountable to evidence-based, best practice standards of care.
Here’s what sets accredited birth centers apart:
Evidence-Based Care: Accreditation ensures we follow the most up-to-date, research-backed practices in maternity care.
Emergency Preparedness: Our team is trained and equipped to manage emergencies safely and transfer care seamlessly when needed.
Shared Decision-Making: We listen, guide, and collaborate with you through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenthood, respecting your choices every step of the way.
Continuous Improvement: Accreditation requires regular review of our care model, meaning we’re always striving for excellence.
Accreditation by the Commission for the Accreditation of Birth Centers (CABC) validates that we provide safe, individualized, and empowering care, without the overuse of interventions that aren’t necessary in a healthy labor.

Our Prenatal Care Services
While pregnancy is an inspiring time in life, it can also be stressful and scary as your body changes! Our prenatal care looks at the whole person to educate our clients and involve them in the care process throughout pregnancy and into postpartum.
Mat-Su Midwifery & Family Health will be alongside you every step of the pregnancy as your guide, support, and advocate. Our mission is to provide holistic care that provides optimal health for both the mother and child. Our midwives are here for expecting mothers from educational classes, routine exams, and more!
We Offer Group Prenatal Care!
In addition to traditional one-on-one care, Mat-Su Midwifery & Family Health offers group prenatal care. Our group prenatal care leads to greater participation, education, and self-confidence throughout the pregnancy, decreases the rate of preterm and low-weight births, builds a supportive community of friends sharing a season of life, and offers protected time for mom (and partner) to focus on the baby.
