The Wyckoff midwives have been serving the community, providing high quality care to patients for over eleven years.  There is a midwife available at the Women's Health Center to meet your prenatal care needs every day of the week.  Patients can choose to have a Certified Nurse-Midwife (CNM) provide all their routine gynecological and obstetric care.  During pregnancy and delivery, you will be cared for by a caring and compassionate midwife, who will also follow your postpartum course until you are discharged from the hospital.  Midwives work closely in collaboration with Ob/Gyn physicians in a supportive environment.  For more information, please call (718) 963-7624. The midwives also offer free childbirth classes at the Women's Health Center to all Wyckoff prenatal patients.  Six classes complete the full cycle of classes.  Patients and their partners do not have to wait for the beginning of a cycle to start the classes and are welcome to repeat any or all sessions as often as they choose.  Information given during the childbirth classes includes hospital policies and expectations, stages of labor, signs of labor, complications in pregnancy and labor, review of danger signs, infant care, breastfeeding, C-Section, the postpartum period, family planning, sexuality, breathing techniques and much more.  The last class in the cycle includes a tour of the hospital's Labor & Delivery unit.  Copies of the childbirth education curriculum are available upon request.  To register, please call (718) 963-7624 and leave a message, or for more information call our Women's Health Center at (718) 486-4167.
