New Birth Center - Kansas City, KS
Why Should I Choose New Birth Company?
We strongly believe in the birth center model for women in childbirth, as it not only empowers women and their babies, but is also an economic engine for supporting sustainable communities.
What is a New Birth Company Birth Center?
We believe natural childbirth is an awe-inspiring physical, emotional and spiritual experience that captures all senses of our bodily spectrum. Using sight, sound, smell, taste and touch, we enhance the birth experience. You will see soothing colors that make you smile. You will hear soothing music commissioned specifically for women and childbirth. You will smell natural scents such as lavender and comfrey. You’ll be offered a blueberry flax smoothie from the kitchen to keep up your energy during labor. A wise woman’s hands guides your body to choose its best position for birth. Our facility also provides clinic rooms for pregnancy visits and well woman care, as well as space for classes and community gatherings.
Attributes of Birth Centers
A free-standing birth center is a facility designed for safe, natural childbirth. Birth centers are optimized around birthing rooms that are designed, equipped and arranged to provide for the care of a mother, her newborn, and the mother’s support person(s) during and following childbirth. Birth Centers or “Houses of Birth” are common in most European countries. There are over 200 licensed birth centers in the United States providing natural birth services to low-risk women.
The birth center supports the practice of midwifery and the normal birth process, including:
• careful screening for potential complications
• honoring the mother’s needs and desires throughout labor
• assisting the mother in managing pain
• paying close attention to the mother and baby’s status in labor
Because they are not appropriate for use in normal labor, the birth center does not use certain interventions, such as:
• cesarean sections
• epidural
• continuous electronic monitoring
The birth center has a specific plan for transferring to a hospital if complications arise before labor, during labor, or after birth, and at any time if interventions are required to insure the safety of the mother and baby. We use electronic medical records to help insure the highest clinical and safety standards.

A New Paradigm in Childbirth
New Birth Company is committed to creating a new paradigm in childbirth. We believe natural childbirth is an awe-inspiring physical, emotional and spiritual experience that captures all senses of our bodily spectrum. Using sight, sound, smell, taste and touch, we enhance the birth experience through the utilization of midwifery services, expertise and scope of care. We support continuity of care across all providers that serve women and babies. We value physicians for their expertise in managing high-risk pregnancies. We believe hospitals are the appropriate venue for surgery and medical interventions for those women who do not fit the low-risk profile. We support national certification, accreditation and state licensure for our services.
Tours & Orientation to the Birth Center are held every Monday night at 6pm.
New Moms please attend Tour first before calling 913-802-2325 to schedule your appointment.
