Claudia Conn and Debbie Schneider are both Tennessee-licensed CPMs (Certified Professional Midwife) and work in partnership to provide full-scope midwifery as well as well-woman care. Our strong birth team allows us to provide comprehensive 24/7 care and support to the families we serve. We cover an area extending out 1 to 2 hours around the Greater Atlanta and North Georgia area and into Tenneesee. Our midwifery practice is firmly based on informed choice. We believe women and families have the right to determine their own care in pregnancy and birth. With each 1-2 hour prenatal appointment we provide ample time and opportunity for education, discussion and relationship–building allowing for and nurturing confidence and trust.Our practice is home-birth based. Our approach to care is very woman - and family - centered. We encourage women to birth where and how they choose and offer a variety of options including water-birth.We believe that a woman's body is designed to give birth and that pregnancy and birth are normal processes. Beyond that, we also believe that birth is meant to a be key event in a woman's life and a joyful and celebratory family event.Studies continue to consistently affirm that planned, attended homebirth is as safe or safer than hospital birth. Our practice, firmly based in the midwifery model of care, allows issues of safety to be appropriately addressed, while uplifting and honoring the wonderfully human and spiritual aspects of birth.
