BBC PATIENT COMMENT
My husband and I feel very fortunate to have found the Brooklyn Birthing Center.  We really appreciate the individual attention and care that comes with it.  Our birth experience was private and truly miraculous.  We felt secure that this was the safest setting for us.  We also had a chance to observe how staff operates if there are any problems.  It was reassuring to see that basic medical equipment is available and used if needed.  The baby and I were carefully monitored in labor and after birth for any signs of a problem.  We knew that the midwives are highly trained to deal with any scenario, but our own experience reinforced this even further.  We can't thank you enough for everything you've done for us.Special thanks to Asya for her guidance throughout the labor.  We were very impressed with her professionalism and level head.  Thanks to Shalawn and Kate for assisting.  Thanks to Catherine for a home visit to check on me and the baby.  And thanks to everybody at the Center for doing everything you do and for being a part of a very special and much needed service.

Asya Portnaya, CM created the Brooklyn Birthing Center group on Facebook on February 17, 2009. We wanted to create more awareness of the Brooklyn Birthing Center in New York and in general. We hope to have you join and allow people to see the different types of people who choose to have a safe and natural birth outside of the hospital.
