Prenatal, Birth, and Postpartum Care
Birth Center Birth
Our birth center, located at 1525 Edgewater Beach Drive in Lakeland, FL, offers a peaceful environment in which to welcome new life into the world. The center is comfortable and home-like, with two birthing bedrooms to choose from, a large tub for water births, two bathrooms, a kitchen, and a separate area for guests to gather. Minutes from Lakeland Regional Health Center, the birth center is a safe option for low-risk mothers who seek a more intimate birth experience with a significantly less chance of interventions.

Home Birth
Home birth is a choice available to our clients who are located within a 30 minute radius from our birth center. In addition to regular prenatal appointments held at our clinic office at The Nest in Lakeland (3838 Lakeland Hills Blvd.), a home visit is conducted in the 36th week of the pregnancy by one of our staff midwives. Home birth is a safe option for low-risk women, offering the same level of care as a birth center birth in an environment that provides every comfort of your own home. Contact us to find out more about what a home birth experience might look like for YOU!
Prenatal Care Only for Hospital Birth
For low-risk clients interested in prenatal midwifery care prior to their planned hospital delivery, we offer services to meet their needs. The Prenatal Care Only package includes all prenatal appointments, regular labs, ultrasound referrals and education classes needed during pregnancy. These clients will pre-register at the hospital of their choosing and deliver with the obstetrician or midwife who is on call there. Afterwards, our midwives will continue to care for them during their postpartum period, seeing them at 2 weeks and again at 6 weeks after the birth, providing lactation support in the early weeks and a Pap test if requested at the final appointment.
Lactation Consultations
Our staff is passionate about supporting our clients in the immediate postpartum period as they begin their breastfeeding journey. The mother is encouraged to believe in her ability to nourish her child and to have a successful breastfeeding relationship for as long as she desires. In the early weeks, we will troubleshoot common concerns such as positioning, sore nipples, pumping, and supplementing, as well as concerns related to returning to work, when to introduce solids and when/how to wean. For persistent troublesome issues beyond what may typically be experienced, clients are referred to the lactation specialists at The Nest.
Educational Opportunities
We are a proud partner of The Nest, a non profit organization which serves as a fantastic resource for the parents in our community! Each of the classes offered at The Nest are designed to educate, support, and build confidence – classes not only for pregnancy and childbirth but also for postpartum wellness and beyond. Our clients are required to attend three in particular that will help them achieve their goals for a safe, natural delivery and an easier postpartum period: Prenatal Nutrition, Breastfeeding Basics, and Childbirth Preparation. The cost for these classes is included in our cost of care.
Massage Therapy
Massage provides both physical and emotional support and eases the aches and pains of the pregnant and postpartum body. In addition to relaxing the muscles, it also improves placental functioning and hormonal production and helps to remove metabolic wastes that have built up. We are excited to offer both prenatal and therapeutic massage with our Licensed Massage Therapist Victoria Williams (MA73601). Our massage room is open to the community and a discount is offered to clients of Celebrate Birth and their partners.
