Birth in Coeur d'Alene

Most Coeur d'Alene families give birth at Kootenai Health, North Idaho's largest hospital. Every labor room has a jetted tub, certified nurse midwives practice there, and VBAC is allowed. If you are hoping for a water-supported labor or a VBAC, that matters. Read my Kootenai Health guide.

How I support Coeur d'Alene families

  • Prenatal visits in your home to plan for birth
  • VBAC preparation, including space to talk through your previous birth
  • Labor support using the tub, movement, massage, and counter pressure
  • Postpartum care at home, daytime or overnight

Serving both sides of the state line

I serve North Idaho and Spokane County, so if your care ends up in Spokane, I can support you there too. Many families near the border move between the two areas for work, providers, and family.

Questions families ask
