Your care, start to finish
With you the whole time
From your first call to your baby's three-month visit, and through the years after, here's what care with Kim looks like.
Step by step
Your journey with True North
Every family is different, so your care will be shaped around you. This is the path most families follow.
- 01
Call or text Kim
Tell Kim a little about yourself, your pregnancy and what you're hoping for. She personally returns every call and text within 24 hours.
- 02
Get to know each other
Talk through your health history and birth goals, ask every question you have, and decide together whether True North is the right fit for your family.
- 03
Prenatal care
Visits of at least an hour, at your home or in Kim's office, with routine assessments, lab work and screenings, nutrition guidance and childbirth education.
- 04
Plan for every path
Together you'll create your birth plan and a hospital transfer plan. Kim attends home births within 30 minutes of a hospital, so there's always a clear route if you need it.
- 05
Your birth
Kim supports you through labor at home, including water birth if you choose it. If you need to go to the hospital, Kim goes with you and stays until your baby is born.
- 06
Postpartum at home
Home visits for you and your baby at 1 day, 3 days, 10 days, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 3 months, with breastfeeding support from an IBCLC.
- 07
Care for life
Well-woman exams, family planning, fertility and menopause care, with prescriptions when you need them. Health and wellness is a lifelong journey.
If plans change
The hospital is part of the plan
Some births need extra help, and that's okay. Before labor begins, you and Kim will agree a transfer plan together: which hospital, how you'll get there and what will happen when you arrive.
If you need to go, you won't go alone. Kim knows how the hospital system works from years inside it, goes with you, advocates for your wishes and stays until your baby is born.
After your baby arrives
Six postpartum visits, at home
Recovery and feeding don't stop at six weeks, so neither does Kim's care.
