Kind Words From Our Clients

*****
The most phenomenal prenatal, birth and postpartum care. I wouldn’t go anywhere else in Houston!
The midwives here have a wealth of experience to support you through every stage, and their classes equipped me with so much knowledge but more importantly confidence. Every appointment I had from check ups and ultrasounds to glucose tests and IBCLC consults gave me the time and space to ask questions and feel completely at ease.
During my labour I used their bath and laughing gas and have no regrets avoiding an epidural in the hospital.
My health insurance considered them out-of-network but Napier Midwifery Billing were a great support and even if it was fully out of pocket it would still be incredible value.
I also love the Whole Heart Collective events like free clothing swaps and postpartum circles.
"Even if you plan on delivering in a hospital: this group of providers still has so much they can offer you...
I look forward to the weekly postpartum group now. I'm grateful to be growing in motherhood with other women, in a space where we are comfortable to discuss our worries, frustrations, and successes!"

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Heart of Houston Birth & Wellness Center! From the start, the midwives and staff made me feel welcomed, supported, and empowered throughout my entire pregnancy and birth journey. Their level of care, knowledge, and dedication is unmatched. They took the time to make sure I felt confident every step of the way.
The prenatal classes were incredibly helpful in preparing me for birth and beyond, and the postpartum group has been a wonderful resource for ongoing support after delivery.
When it came time for the birth, they were incredibly skilled, guiding me through the entire process with care and professionalism. I felt completely supported, and their guidance gave me the strength I needed to bring my baby into the world.
I am so grateful for my positive birth experience, and I highly recommend this amazing birth center to any expecting parent!
