As an alternative to hospital birth, Tender Gifts Birth Center is Northern Colorado's first full-service, freestanding birth center. The atmosphere of our Colorado birth center will give you a caring, warm, and home-like environment where you are supported and respected as well as safe and secure. You will have a private room, bathroom & birthing tub for giving birth the way you choose: make yourself comfortable, wear the clothing you choose, eat when you feel hungry, move as you please and choose to labor in a birth tub or have a waterbirth. In addition to our birth center, we also provide homebirth midwifery care, women's health services, prenatal care, and doula training for the Northern Colorado community.

"Althea and her team of midwives and doulas at Tender Gifts made us feel like family from the very beginning. Their care was both professional and deeply nurturing—guiding me with compassion through every stage of pregnancy and helping me feel truly prepared for my baby girl’s arrival. I felt seen, supported, and empowered every step of the way. I’m already looking forward to my next baby, just to be in their tender, loving care again!"

What an honor to serve and love on our families in one of the most crucial times in their lives!

A beautiful homebirth for these amazing first time parents. They welcomed their son into the world surrounded by the love and support of their family, who were a constant source of encouragement (and hip squeezes) throughout labor.
Love these Grand Junction babies!

Althea Hrdlichka, CPM

As a mother of four, I found my enjoyment and satisfaction during pregnancy was truly dependent on the support I received. I have had four completely different birthing experiences. Some were fulfilling while others fell short. This is why I chose to dedicate my life's work to assist women during pregnancy and childbirth by becoming a CPM (Certified Professional Midwife).

​ I also keep a current certification in neonatal resuscitation and CPR. While homebirth is a mostly natural form of childbirth, I work closely with doctors, chiropractors and other medical providers to bring every element of care necessary to service all of my clients needs throughout their pregnancy and childbirth. I’ve worked with women through both natural and medicated births, and assisted with many successful VBAC’s in the hospital and at home.

I am passionate about providing supportive, gentle and loving care to all my clients so that they may experience the birth they deserve. I look forward to providing care and knowledge to you and your partner as well as a safe and satisfying pregnancy and birthing experience. I cannot wait to meet you and assist you through your journey to a wonderful and satisfying pregnancy and birth.
