Homebirth Midwives in NC

​Home Birth in NC is possible!

Navigating the complexity of legal language around homebirth midwifery in North Carolina is a bit of a wild goose chase. NC currently only recognizes and licenses Certified Nurse Midwives to practice homebirth legally, denying licensure to the branch of midwifery qualification that specializes in out of hospital birth, Certified Professional Midwives. Despite the complications of living in a state that refuses licensure to highly qualified, nationally recognized CPMs, there is indeed a robust homebirth community in North Carolina. It is the fundamental legal right of any birthing family to choose where and with whom to give birth, and there is a community of midwives and traditional birth attendants who believe in the autonomy of families and their right to their choice of care. It can be challenging to navigate your options for finding a midwife who is forced to work "underground"- I am here to help.
