The Natural Birthing Center offers a range of services including waterbirth and or birth center care. We want to assist you to optimize your health during pregnancy.  We serve Georgetown, Round Rock, Leander, Burnet, Salado, Temple and Killeen areas. We limit the number of clients we see per month so that we can fully focus on you.  We would love to get to know you and be part of the joy during your pregnancy, birth, delivery and first weeks as a new mother. We are here for you.    

We offer a free tour of the birth center and/or interview--call today to schedule your tour!

     We schedule 45 minute prenatals to give us plenty of time to get to know each other. If this is your first homebirth or birth center birth, you will have lots of questions. We expect that, and welcome questions--even hard ones.
  
     We want you and your family to have the best experience possible, whether it is at home or in our Salado birth center, or the Round Rock birth center.  

      It may take a few visits to truly get to know your midwife.  It is the experience and calmness of the midwife--one who listens to you, and works with you side by side in partnership throughout your pregnancy--that makes your birth special. There are midwives who will tell you what you want to hear, and there are midwives who will be honest and bless you in strong, supportive ways. Midwives are not all alike, and there's a midwife for every mother.

     Salado is centrally located 20 minutes north of Georgetown, and 15 minutes south of Temple. It is a pleasant and quick drive from Austin to Salado.  The Round Rock Birthing Center is just off of University drive, less than 3 minutes from two hospitals.

AT THE NATURAL BIRTHING CENTER YOUR BIRTH IS SACRED. 

What we hear from our clients is that NOT all midwives are the same.  They are both surprised and pleased that we stand above the rest. I believe it is due to our core beliefs. 

     We know that the birth of a baby can be a powerful, healing, and  life-changing experience.  At the Natural Birthing Center your care is personalized to meet your needs.  My goal is to support you, and your  partner to have a beautiful out of hospital birth experience. Birth can and should be a blissful experience; not some traumatic thing that leaves you wondering how your birth could have been improved. 

     We know that a woman remembers her  birth her whole life. Should it not be gentle, powerful and a wonderful memory? Due to the nature of birth, it may not always be gentle.  It does not always go the way you like it to.  At the Natural Birthing Center we do our best to meet your birth experience with gentleness and safety while supporting your needs and wishes.  At The Natural Birthing Center we respect choice.  We  listen to you.  We support your choices.

     We know that one can have a beautiful birth while being safely attended to with respect and gentleness.  I believe a midwife partners with you, and protects your privacy and seeks to fulfill your needs by offering choices, and respecting your choices. 

     To get to this place of optimal birthing we are sitting in prenatal appointments, addressing inner fears and barriers. We are taking the time to get to know one another, create comfort.  I am listening to your ideas for your birth. You may mention the reasons the last birth was not ideal, or was traumatic. We talk about diet, exercise,  birth and parenting preparation.  As time moves forward  toward the day you will meet your little one face to face  we talk about your birth in greater detail.  I respect your birth plan.  When that day arrives, during your birth, my focus is on you.  I believe in the golden rule.  I treat you the way I would like to be treated.  With respect. With the knowledge that this is your birth. I am a  guest at your birth to ensure you and your baby's safety, and to guide the birth energy toward your optimum birth and healthy motherhood.

• The Natural Birthing Center does not share call schedules, and unlike many other birthing centers, it's not a group practice.
• Sandra Tallbear is the old-fashioned kind of midwife!
