Tierney  truly believes in a woman's natural ability to birth her baby with little intervention in their homes or in a Birth Center.

I wholeheartedly believe and trust in the process of birth.I feel strongly that most women with excellent Midwifery Care can and will realize a safe birth outside the hospital. It is my goal to combine the Midwifery Model of Care with quality nutritious foods, education and a relationship of trust with me your midwife. My greatest joy and pleasure is to help a first time mother have an out of hospital birth. It is truly a life changing process.One I am blessed to be a part of.

Tierney has over 30 years of experience in helping women throughout their pregnancies and birth.  As Certified Professional Midwives (CPM) licensed in Virginia, my desire is to return birth to the family. My began my journey to become a midwife, when I was a young woman. I went to Nursing Schoolto to become a Nurse-Midwife,but after becoming a nurse and seeing hospital birth I became disillusioned, and that lead to me reconsider my plans. In the meantime, I became pregnant and realized I would not be happy with a traditional hospital birth. I had  my first daughter,Heather in 1980, with excellent Midwifery Care.

I have gone on to have the rest of my babies with midwives, and  then at home,without interventions.  Through  great midwifery care, we were able to  realize our fullest birthing potential, and I would love the opportunity to help you have the best, safest birth possible. Birth is a rite of passage for women!

I have helped woman have twins, breeches and VBAC's. Yet, I am humbled daily by the power of birth.I have seen many many births but tomorrow I will see a new birth and I will respect it! 

I believe that women need access to the evidence based outcomes concerning birth, and it is my desire to serve woman by giving balanced educated facts concerning their pregnancy and birth choices!
