Invitation to past clients to cozy up with a cup of tea one of these chilly November evenings and recall your birth story.

It’s so helpful for new parents and families curious about midwifery care and homebirth to hear your stories. So, if you’re willing to share, we’d love to get your story out there!

Today at the .me parent group in Tamworth we talked all about the importance of reading with little ones for enhancing early literacy, supporting emotional intelligence and improving language skills.

Thanks to Amy from the Cook Memorial Library for spending the morning with us and for the gift of books from the Children’s Literacy Foundation! These little S**opee babies were so excited to explore their new reading material!

See you at 10!

When you hire S**opee Midwives, you hire a team. A team that cares deeply for you, and for one another.

When you come into our care, you will get to know all of us individually over the course of your pregnancy. Our appointments are an hour long, and there is plenty of time to chat and build relationships. When it comes time for your birth, you will have at least two of us in attendance. Postpartum care extends to 12 weeks, allowing space for lots of connection following the birth.

We communicate almost daily, and have scheduled meetings twice a week to review charts and keep each other up to date. We love the group practice model, as it allows us to collaborate as a team to provide the best care!

Exciting announcement for current and future New Hampshire clients!

Starting January 2026, we will start doing some visits at the Tamworth Community Nurse Association.

We have loved hosting monthly parent groups in this beautiful new facility over the past 6 months and are excited about the opportunity to expand our practice in this way that we hope will increase convenience for our granite staters.

Oh how we love these families 💓Thanks to  all that came out for another successful pumpkin carving party!

To all the families we’ve had the honor of serving — your words mean the world to us!

We’d love for you to share your experience in a review. Not only does it help our practice grow, but it also helps other families as they look for care that fits their needs and desires.

With gratitude,

Our Story

Home birth midwifery and wellcare for families in Maine

S**opee Valley Birthing Services

was born in 1994 and is now collectively managed by four midwives. Brenda Surabian, Lindsay Bushnell, Jodie Kaufman and Robin Illian share the responsibility equally which allows us to make midwifery sustainable for our families and provide you with experienced, client centered care.

The practice name describes the the Abenaki lands of the S**o and Ossipee River Valley where the practice started. We are grateful to be able to visit with our clients at one of our home offices near the confluence of the S**o and Ossipee Rivers. This area is peaceful, yet powerful...as birth is.
