OUR BIRTH CENTER
Powerful Birthing Experiences
The Wenatchee Midwife Service Childbirth Center provides a safe, home-like location for you to birth your baby comfortably. Built in 1996, it is one of the longest standing birth centers in Washington state. Our birth suites have full kitchens, jacuzzi tubs, built-in speaker systems, and luxurious full size beds. We have much of the same medical equipment and medications compared to the hospital, but keep things discretely stored to provide the most calm, intimate, and personal birthing experience possible.
