“Roberta Devers is an extraordinary, talented, experienced, and wise midwife. I gave birth to both of my children at home, and feel so lucky that Roberta was my guide and partner in both. They were safe, and beautiful experiences. I am forever grateful, and cannot recommend her more highly”

Experience the Beauty of Home Birth

Upscale
At Mountain Laurel midwifery we believe that birth is a time to be pampered. We provide suggestions for some extra special, sometimes even posh, ideas that can elevate your birth experience to the next level. After all, there’s always room for a little bit of class.
Inclusive
Our practice is designed to provide cultural safety, and inclusivity for all family types. This means that we educate ourselves in an effort to understand the unique health needs, and social issues of a variety of populations. This is especially true of the marginalized demographics in our society. Over a 30 year period, I have served the Christian, Jewish, Mormon, Amish, Mennonite, Jamaican, Hispanic, and LGBTQ+ communities with humility, dignity, honor, and respect. It is my pledge to continue to do so!
Experienced
Roberta is amongst the MOST experienced midwife in the area. She has done births for over 30 years, and “caught” over 1500 babies. She has also been on the faculty of two midwifery schools, and has been very involved in the advocacy and politics of home birth and midwifery. View Roberta’s full resume on the ‘about’ page.
“I can certainly understand why intelligent women in Roberta Devers’ area, who know they are healthy and low-risk, would like to engage her as their midwife, given her education and long experience.”
Ina May Gaskin
“Roberta is a fantastic midwife. I was young, and living far from family when I gave birth to my first child – Roberta’s caring and strength gave me the confidence I needed for a beautiful birth experience. I look back on that birth, and am so grateful that I had Roberta at my side. She was patient, caring, knowledgeable and supportive from the prenatal instruction, through the labour and post-natal care.
Thanks Roberta and all the best in your new practice!”
— Dr. Sherri Klassen
