Bearth Side Midwifery Aliaja Allison LM, CPM

From the moment I reached out to Aliaja at 36 weeks pregnant when my husband and I decided we wanted a home birth experience instead of a unmedicated hospital birth, through the birth of our daughter, she was nothing short of extraordinary. Her depth of knowledge, calm presence, and intuitive understanding of birth created an environment of trust, safety, and empowerment in our home. Although our home birth eventually turned into a non-emergency hospital transfer, the way she handled every moment was truly invaluable. She remained grounded, confident, and deeply supportive, explaining each step with clarity and compassion. Because of her experience, the transition felt smooth, informed, and peaceful rather than stressful or rushed. We always felt that both my baby and I were in the most c

I can’t say enough about how thankful I am for the care and support we received from Aliaja. I was with my daughter for her very first birth, and as her mom, I was nervous. It was a long, hard labor with exhausting back pain, lots of nausea, and moments where it felt like progress just wasn’t happening. But through it all, Aliaja was steady, calm, and reassuring in a way that kept us going. She always seemed to know exactly what to do or say at the right time. When my daughter was struggling to breathe through contractions, she calmly guided her to use “horse lips,” and the shift was immediate. It gave my daughter a rhythm and a sense of control again. When the hours dragged on and I worried about how much more she could take, Aliaja never lost confidence in her. That belief mattered so m

Last summer my pregnancy started off feeling unnecessarily stressful under the care of an OB. About 7 weeks in, I knew I had to switch providers if I wanted to have the birth of my dreams. That's when we met with Aliaja of Bearthside Midwifery. We knew immediately she was the right fit for us. She was far more knowledgeable, she was confident, and she was calming and reassuring. We felt at ease in an instant. Aliaja brought her positive warm energy to every visit, and she was so great at providing what I needed before I ever knew I needed it. Appointments were never rushed and I looked forward to every single one. Quietly calming fears, and building my confidence one visit at a time. Having Aliaja at our side was an education for us parents-to-be, so much to learn along the way with pregna

Forever grateful to Aliaja for giving our family the home birth of our dreams. After continually feeling unsettled with my OB team, Aliaja gently supported and guided me as I inquired about joining care. She was there for me throughout my pregnancy and I immediately felt at peace when speaking with her about any of my questions or concerns. She was able to give me present and personalized care, something I was searching for and missing from my previous providers. I looked forward to every home visit and often reached out in between for updates and reassurance. The knowledge my toddler got from the experience truly benefited our transition into a family of 4 so much. Our toddler felt included and informed which eased the big transition in such a wonderful way. Aliaja has such a calm and str

Aliaja was everything I needed in a midwife. She is caring and has the best demeanor. She was always quick to respond to anything I needed prenatal and super respectful of all my wishes for my home birth. This was my 4th baby and I’ve found It can be hard for a provider to leave you alone and do nothing during labor, which is what I wanted. She was amazing. Making sure baby and mom were safe but then giving me all the space I needed to labor in peace. I highly recommend her!!
