Pregnant Woman in Nature

Welcome to
Canary Nest Midwifery

My name is Mary Harman. I am a Licensed Certified Professional Midwife. I have been preparing for this role my whole life.

To be privileged enough to witness somebody's birth is to witness a divine interaction between body and soul. Something sacred and primal happens when one believes in their body and lets nature take its course. Being fully present in your birth will change your life forever. The memories of your birth will stay with you, vivid until the last moment.

​

As a Licensed Certified Professional Midwife, I believe in the power of mind, body, and soul aligning to create a perfect union. As your Midwife, I will help guide you on this path, so that you might have peace and harmony within yourself before stepping into parenthood. I will do my best to inform, guide, and protect your journey while encouraging you to self-educate, love, and embrace this time fully. I offer heart-centered prenatal care, taking your philosophies and goals and blending them with safe, holistic Midwifery care.

I hope to address the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of your prenatal and postpartum period, as well as your labor support desires. Offering Midwifery services, placenta encapsulation, lactation support, herbal tinctures, herbal support, and birth plan assistance for birthing families in Central Appalachia.

I know we only met twice -- at the prenatal and birth, but I'll never forget how you took such great care of me and how respectful you were. I really appreciate how you waited until I was ready for each heart beat check, didn't touch me during the post birth tear check, and helped me shower... meanwhile you were wet the whole time. Thank you for everything.
