My name is Savanah Songer. My birth journey started in 2008, when I was preparing for the birth of my first child. I knew I wanted a natural birth, but I didn't know that it would be so hard to accomplish in the hospital setting. I did everything right, hired a doula, received natural childbirth education, and did most of my laboring at home. Despite being fully dilated within 30 minutes of arriving at the hospital, my birth ended in a traumatic, unnecessary cesarean under general anesthesia. This ignited a passion in me to help others acheive the births they desired.

​

I started attending births in 2010. I finished my midwifery apprenticeship in 2016 and became a licensed midwife. During my apprenticeship, I managed to have three more children- ALL AT HOME! My homebirths were all unique but wonderful in their own way. Everyone at my births knew and loved me and my babies. That is what sets homebirth apart, I think. By the end of your pregnancy, your midwife is like family. She is personally invested in you and your family. My VBACs have given me a great desire to help other women, like myself, achieve vaginal births after cesareans. Homebirth is my passion and it is my goal to serve every client and her family with an open heart.
