What We Do

Motherwise Midwifery currently offers comprehensive prenatal care to clients planning to deliver in the hospital with an established provider. Seamless communication between Motherwise Midwifery and the delivering provider makes the transition effortless. We also include one postpartum visit. Postpartum doula care is also available for an additional fee. We are not offering home birth services at this time.

Motherwise Midwifery Offers:

  • One-on-one prenatal appointments in your home with plenty of time for questions
  • Comprehensive prenatal testing
  • Personalized nutritional counseling
  • Decades of experience supporting women through natural childbirth
  • Expert clinical care and emotional support during pregnancy
  • Postpartum support, including lactation counseling 

From 2019 to 2020 home births increased 20% nationally, according to the CDC. In Idaho, home-births increased 69% from 2018-2020 according to vital statistics data, reflecting the desire for the attentive, individualized care that midwives offer.

About Me

Nancy moved to Moscow in 1992 with her family when she was a young mother, passionate about empowering women in childbirth. She taught childbirth classes to expectant couples, offered doula services in the hospital, taught doula trainings around the US, and apprenticed as a midwife. In 2008, Nancy became a Certified Professional Midwife through the North American Registry of Midwives. In 2010 she became licensed in Idaho, and in 2016 she became licensed in Washington. She has provided the Palouse with midwifery care continuously since she began as an intern in 1999. She was a volunteer EMT for 8 years with the Genesee Fire Department, four of which were as an advanced-EMT. Nancy is the mother of three grown children, and she is a grandmother. She loves to spin fiber, create beautiful knitted pieces for her family and friends, and garden.

 Nancy, you assisted Veronica Lassen and I in delivering our son Samuel nearly 8 years ago. I have never forgotten you and by some strange urging I felt the need to look both you and Veronica up here. So glad to find you, yet deeply sad about what I’ve found with my first sweet midwife.

 Nancy, you assisted Veronica Lassen and I in delivering our son Samuel nearly 8 years ago. I have never forgotten you and by some strange urging I felt the need to look both you and Veronica up here. So glad to find you, yet deeply sad about what I’ve found with my first sweet midwife. I cannot tell you the difference you made for me with my future children (we have 5 now) or the amazing things I’ve accomplished because of the influence you had on me during that delivery. I can never thank you enough. ~ Jessica Perso

She has a warm and gentle presence

I absolutely adore Nancy. She has a warm and gentle presence that helped me feel at home with her from day one. I really feel like the calm and trust in my body that she helped lead me to was a big factor in my ability to have such a great pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.

I absolutely adore Nancy. She has a warm and gentle presence that helped me feel at home with her from day one. I really feel like the calm and trust in my body that she helped lead me to was a big factor in my ability to have such a great pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I think if I had had the exact same birth in a hospital I’d have been pressured into several interventions, but instead she used her wisdom to guide me into different positions that helped my son and I along when I was “stuck.” She was the perfect person to nurture me into motherhood. ~ MB
