In the wake of LifeCycle Wellness, one of the oldest birth centers in the country, shutting down after 47 years of providing midwife services, Philadelphia Midwife Collective is opening a new birth center and community health practice in Germantown. It will soon be Philadelphia's ONLY birth center.
Philadelphia Midwife Collective is an independent midwifery practice that provides reproductive health services in Philadelphia with a focus on equity and social justice. Their inclusive practice centers q***r and trans patients, people with low incomes, and Black, Indigenous, and people of color. They take a patient-centered approach to their critical work, serving as a grounding force in the community by restoring humanity, trust, and dignity to the birthing experience.
Every pregnant person should be able to receive all the support and resources they need, and that includes access to local birth centers. 🧡
