Reflections From Home Birth Families

"I had my first home birth with Kelly and she was amazing. She respected our preferences and beliefs and I never felt pressured or judged. She helped me feel very confident going into labor. This was my second baby and I had experienced preeclampsia after the birth of my first, so it was important to me to have someone that knew what to look out for. Kelly gave me so many natural ways to help prevent preeclampsia and we had zero complications. She was so flexible with appointments and always kept open communication. She brought wonderful chemistry to our little growing family and my son absolutely loved her! You cannot go wrong with choosing Kelly as your midwife. Thank you Kelly!"

"Kelly is a gentle, caring, and thoughtful person. She is also very knowledgeable and professional. I appreciated how reliable and responsive she was via phone, no matter what the hour was I could count on her responding quickly. The home birth was successful despite it being long, Kelly stuck through with me. My baby was in an OP position so it was a hard labor but Kelly kept a calm and encouraging demeanor the whole time. Before leaving our home she made sure my fiance and I were comfortable and well fed and she also helped me with breastfeeding. This is my first baby, and Kelly has been incredibly helpful, she has guided me in a way that encourages me to trust my instincts as a mom. I am so grateful she was our midwife and I highly recommend her!"

"Kelly helped deliver the final piece that made our family whole. From the very first phone call, I could feel the depth of her knowledge and the genuine kindness in her heart. I knew immediately that she was meant to be part of our birth story. We were fortunate to have all of our visits at home, which allowed our two daughters to be involved in every appointment. Kelly was always so thoughtful and thorough, making sure to include them in each step. She helped them feel connected to my birthing journey in a way that was both meaningful and empowering. During the birth, Kelly’s support was unwavering. She created a calm, loving space for all of us, and even made it possible for our oldest daughter to cut the umbilical cord—a moment that will forever be a cherished memory in our family. Thank you, Kelly, for coming into our lives and guiding me through my last pregnancy with such grace and compassion. You made every moment special, not just for me, but for our entire family."

"I cannot say enough about Kelly!! We met her when she was still at Acorn, we were journeying through our first natural birth with our second child. She was so attentive and loving, and truly made us feel heard and safe throughout the process. I also lost my mom during that pregnancy, and Kelly just stepped up her care to make sure i felt supported and capable while grieving and birthing. By the time we got pregnant with our third, she had started her own practice and we knew we didn’t want to have this baby without her! She fully prepped us for our homebirth with education, support, and supplies- she was there for every question, every text, everything! She allowed me the autonomy in my birth, while also provided the knowledge behind my choices and never let us down. My husband and i are so blessed to know her, and to have her as the women who delivered our babies. How amazing is it to have someone you can form a friendship with hold those spaces for you!! If you’re on the fence, just GO FOR IT. You won’t regret it"

Kelly is very skilled, calm, peaceful, caring, smart, passionate and loving—everything you’d want in a midwife! She was there for us, day or night, every step of our journey. I’ve never felt so cared for in my life. We cannot recommend her enough!"

“Kelly is the BEST midwife!!!! I’m beyond lucky to call her one of my midwives for my first baby! I’m a first time mommy and Kelly’s support has been incredible. She’s always there for me through every question I have any hour of the day/night. Idk how I’d get through postpartum without her! She truly loves her families and it shows by her unconditional love and support she has. I cannot recommend Kelly enough! If you’re looking for a midwife you’ve found her!!!!"

“If you are looking for a skilled, compassionate, and trustworthy midwife then look no further than Kelly Traurig. I met Kelly in July of 2022 when I was pregnant with my first baby. From the first prenatal appointment we had together, I felt comfortable and heard. She is easy to talk to and easy to love! She has a caring bedside manner and never made me feel like I was asking a silly question. When it came time for labor and birth, Kelly set up the room with care. She assured us we were safe and held. She was involved in our immediate postnatal care and many other postpartum well visits. I am so thankful to have gone through pregnancy, birth, and being a new mom with Kelly by our side. Every mama and family needs a "Kelly" in their journey!"

“Kelly is everything you didn’t know you needed in a birth experience. She has a grounding peace and centered calmness that makes you feel at ease. I’m so grateful she was able to attend me during this beautiful transition into motherhood again. As an older woman, I felt heard and appreciated by the entire staff, but Kelly went above and beyond to listen to and respect my hearts song as I brought forth life again. Birth after loss can be something that might be a struggle to process, yet with the right balance of birth team, it helps ease you on your way. Thank you Kelly for your service to the mothers and babies in this community!”

Elizabeth S
“I can go on forever about all of the reasons that Kelly has been a wonderful support through my births, but to keep it short- Kelly has helped deliver both of my daughters and I truly can not recommend her enough! She has always brought such a sweet calmness throughout all of my prenatal visits that made me feel heard and understood. Her balance of encouragement and privacy during the labor and birthing experience was absolutely perfect, and I wouldn’t change a thing. Her support throughout my difficult labors, births, and PP times have been absolutely immeasurable. If you are looking for someone eager to support and encourage you throughout such a beautiful time, Kelly is the midwife you’re looking for!”
