welcome to : Be Well Midwifery
I am Amanda Koch, a Certified Professional Midwife proudly serving homebirth-seeking families in Georgia. I am passionate about providing the type of care that returns the power and decision making to the women I serve. I trust and honor pregnancy and birth as a normal and beautiful rite of passage for both the mother and her baby. I desire to help empower and protect the sacred space of motherhood through many different wellness integrations.
I believe physiologic pregnancy and birth are normal, natural processes and should be trusted and honored.
I believe mothers and babies are divinely intuitive and wise. (Read: your body and your baby aren’t broken or need saving)
I believe babies are sensitive souls aware of and directly impacted by their environment - beginning with conception.
I believe the largest contributor to a woman's positive birth experience is being surrounded by love, safety, patience, and support from loved ones and providers she trusts.
For a woman, the most transformative time in life is from maidenhood to motherhood.
Amanda’s philosophy on birth:
“whenever and however you give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body, and your spirit for the rest of your life.”
