Hakima Midwifery offers comprehensive, holistic perinatal and well woman care. It is my goal to provide midwifery care that combines conventional health practices and alternative forms of healing, such as homeopathic or herbal remedies, in the best and most effective way.

PRENATAL CARE: Good prenatal care is the cornerstone of a healthy pregnancy. It is similar to standard obstetric care in that I will monitor your blood pressure, weight, fetal growth, and urine at each visit. In addition, I will also spend time discussing nutrition, exercise, emotional adaptations to pregnancy, along with any other pertinent issues. All labs are drawn at the clinic or in your home.  

LABOR AND DELIVERY: A midwife-attended birth offers women individualized attention throughout each phase of the labor process. I monitor mother and baby's vital signs at increasing intervals as the labor progresses in order to ensure a safe and healthy delivery.   

POSTPARTUM CARE: Postpartum care is one of the most overlooked aspects of American obstetric care. After your baby's birth, you will receive two visits within the first five days, a two-week appointment, and a final six-week visit. (Not to mention all the phone calls in between!) At these visits, we go over breastfeeding, healing, rest, nutrition, family changes, family planning, and more.

WELL WOMAN CARE: Well woman care includes PAP smears, breast exams, and pre-conception counseling. Well woman care is also holistic and individualized to fit a woman's needs.
