The number of midwifery-led birth centers has increased 65% in the past eight years and the hope is that this model of care will continue to grow. Get a glimpse into a typical day at a midwifery-led birth center by taking a virtual tour. Hear the heartwarming stories of families who chose birth center care and from nurse-midwives and birth center leaders on the importance of increasing care options for women and families.

When Mary Breckinridge founded Frontier Nursing University, her vision was to provide nurse-midwifery care to serve the needs of women and families in local communities. Today, Frontier Nursing University expands this vision by encouraging students to spend part of their learning experience at a community-based AABC accredited birth center.
