Our Vision
The future of birth and families in Louisiana must prioritize equity, safety, and accessibility. As a state with some of the highest rates of maternal and neonatal morbidity & mortality, it is crucial to shift the focus toward holistic and compassionate care that addresses the unique needs of all families, particularly those who have been historically marginalized.
At Saige Birth Center, we envision a community where every person has access to quality midwifery care, regardless of their financial situation or background. By actively working to be in network with most private insurances and Medicaid, we are committed to breaking down the barriers that prevent families from receiving the care they deserve.
Midwifery care has the potential to transform the birth experience, offering personalized support that embraces the physical, emotional, spiritual, and cultural aspects of childbirth. We aim to create a system where families can choose the care model that suits them best, leading to safer, healthier outcomes for both mothers and infants.
To achieve this vision, we will continue to advocate for policy changes that promote equitable access to care, invest in community education, and foster collaborations with local health providers. By addressing issues that contribute to health disparities, we can create a more supportive environment for all families in Louisiana, nurturing a generation of healthy births and thriving families.
