Kind Words :)

“The Soft Corner Midwifery Team is attentive, informative, and nurturing. The care they provide brings about a sense of calm and ease that any expecting mother would want to surround the birth of their little one. They are inviting, and the passion they bring to the table is unmatched. I was a transplant to Maine, already 30 weeks. I could not tell the difference in their care; they made me feel welcomed and as if they were providing my care from day 1. I felt heard; they addressed my concerns and responded promptly, no matter how big or small the inquiry. I would use Soft Corner for the remainder of my birthing days; it holds a dear place in my heart that I can save and love every day. I appreciate the team of women who provided me with care and am ever grateful that they were by my side during my pregnancy journey, birthing experience, and post-partum experience.”

“Soft Corner gave me the birth of my dreams. As a single mommy with no family around, they helped fill that gap by supported my mind body and spirit in an uncertain time. They acknowledge my fears. Gave wings to my dreams and handed me my baby with loving hands. I wouldnt of been able to have my at home natural water birth if it wasnt for them. My beautiful baby girl is now 15 months old and a wonderful reflection of the care and love i received 9 months prior to her arrival. I suggest Soft Corner for any mother wanting personalized professional top of the line care. They are not only supportive to their mommies, but leaders in the midwifery community to better improve the care for all mommies in Maine. I am still counting the blessings my midwifery gave me and my baby. And i continually suggest to the new mommies around me to check out Soft Corner. It’s not in their nature to let any women down. And i pray they continue blessing the mothers of Maine.

Thank you so much ladies. Forever in my heart. Forever apart of our story.”

“I had an amazing experience with soft corner midwifery for my home birth. They were knowledgeable patient and warm. As a healthcare worker one of the things that was important to me was having a midwife who would be willing to transfer if needed but more apt to keep me home if it was still appropriate. I felt so safe knowing Morgan, Kate and their team would make the right decisions at the right time. We had our baby at home and it was amazing Better than our hospital births by a landslide. I would highly recommend.”

“We had an absolutely incredible experience with Morgan and the rest of the Soft Corner Midwifery team. I cannot recommend them highly enough. We feel so lucky to have had them as part of our birthing experience. The care and support we received was unmatched.”

“I couldn’t recommend my experience with Soft Corner Midwifery enough. I felt so well cared for throughout every part of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. The care they provide is beyond anything I could’ve imagined. I feel so grateful!”

“Soft Corner was the perfect choice for us during our pregnancy ! We looked forward to going to their office for each appointment. Each midwife was incredibly knowledgable and took time to talk through options with us. I felt informed and supported every step of the way. When it came to delivery it went different than expected, and Soft Corner worked with Maine Medical Center for our transfer to make it so smooth and seamless. They helped us labor at home for as long as possible and we checked in without a single problem thanks to Soft Corner’s prep work. Morgan was able to join us in the hospital and we delivered just a few hours later. She was the most peaceful presence I want her to be at the delivery of every child we have!”

“I am so grateful to have been cared for by the soft corner team with my last pregnancy. After a troubling hospital birth with my first I knew I wanted things to go differently this time around. I planned a home birth with soft corner and the difference in care to my previous obgyn was night and day. I felt I had informed choice for every option prenatally and during birth. Each prenatal visit, the team took the time to answer all of my questions and explain the research behind all of the prenatal care recommendations. I never felt pushed to make a choice that I didn’t agree with. One of my biggest anxieties during pregnancy was having the baby before the team could get to my house (my body births quickly) and that is exactly what happened. However, because of the amazing care I received I was not afraid at all to birth alone with my partner and he calmly caught our baby. The team was there immediately postpartum as they were on their way over and did amazing with caring for us postpartum. My postpartum this time around was a dream because of the midwifery model of care and how supported I felt during pregnancy and birth (and not having to leave my house!). We are still happily nursing 6months postpartum, I had lactation support during pregnancy which helped me feel prepared before baby arrived. Having a home birth was the best decision ever and I highly recommend Morgan, Kate, Sierra, and Lauren to anyone looking for a badass birth team!”

“amazing amazing amazing, this was my second home birth. And hands down it was miles better than my first with a different company. at the very least consider going with this midwifery team for morgan’s magnificent massages for lower back pressure during the contractions, honestly help me ride the wave during some of the most intense contractions during a very difficult part of labour. once again thank you very much from me and my very boisterous chubby cheeked cheeky one year old.”

“The incredible midwives at Soft Corner supported my recent birth at home, and I quite literally could not be more grateful and honored to have had such incredible care. From every unrushed, holistic and thoughtful prenatal visit to every consent-driven, thoughtful shared decision along the way, to each step of my birth at home and my postpartum support, this team has been amazing. The hours after the birth were slow and gentle as they kept me and baby safe and comfortable, got us tucked in quietly in our own bed, and cleaned up everything and even did the laundry! For anyone considering a home birth (or birth in their new beautiful birth center!) I truly could not recommend Soft Corner strongly enough.”

“Soft Corner Midwifery was our provider for both our IUI conception journey and our post-partum care, and we cannot recommend them strongly enough. Morgan was exactly the provider we needed when we were first trying to get pregnant and grow our queer family. From the first meeting she took the time to get to know us as a family and talk through all concerns, questions, and hopes for IUI. She was compassionate and calm as Hannah navigated unexpected pain in the IUI process and responsive and clear as we learned how to do new things like track ovulation. She was extremely flexible, schedule-wise, when our plans changed and we encountered unexpected hurdles, and she never made us seem like we were a burden.

Morgan prioritized conversations about consent and pain management before all appointments in a way that should be a model for other providers. Sierra and Kate are also incredible team members who we trust deeply with our care and the care of our now 7 week old.

Soft Corner’s postpartum care plan met us where we were as brand new, tender parents— in our home, with consideration for our brains, bodies, and baby’s schedule. As part of their care package, they connected us to an incredible lactation consultant (Take Care Lactation) and pelvic floor physical therapist. It was such a relief to have care in our home in the first days of parenthood; care that wasn’t alarmist or prescriptive and encouraged us to trust our own instincts

In the care of the Soft Corner team we felt seen as a queer family–a priority for us in our family planning process. We felt seen, heard, and valued and were always seen like partners in our own care and the care of our little. Every family deserves conception and postpartum care like the kind we received from this amazing team!”

“Morgan is one of those lucky individuals who has found her true calling in life. She is a natural midwife in everyway. She is sharp, intuitive, patient and positive. She gives advice when you want it and listens kindly when you don’t want it. I’ve had the joy of working with Morgan as both my own midwife but also along side her as a birth photographer. I marvel at her dedication to each couple and birth as if each one is the first and most miraculous one she’s ever seen. Having a midwife is like adding to your family, she instantly became the sister, aunt and friend that I needed during my pregnancy. I cannot recommend Morgan enough and hope she continues to catch babies for decades to come.”

“Morgan was our midwife for our 5th and final baby. She was always so warm and hospitable when I came for prenatal appointments, taking as much time as we needed to really take interest in my wellbeing (physically and emotionally.) She was always super knowledgeable and up to date on the latest studies and medical practices regarding different decisions (tests, etc.) I’m so thankful for her care and couldn’t recommend her more.”

“I transferred from an OB into Morgan’s care shortly after the start of the pandemic in NYC. Up to that point, my pregnancy experience had been pretty terrible- a tense and stressful checkup experience, impersonal doctors, and lots of pressure to follow their “way” without question.

Transferring into Morgan’s care was such a radically different experience. She was patient, empathetic, thoughtful and so knowledgeable. She was there for all the ups and downs of pregnancy and birth, only a text or call away to assuage any anxiety, which was invaluable during such a turbulent year.

I feel so lucky to have been guided into motherhood by Morgan and her team, it was a truly special experience. Thank you!!”

“I first met Morgan a few months into my pregnancy, still on the hunt for a birthing site/crew that felt right for me. As a mother of one (delivered via emergency cesarian about seven years prior), I had a better idea of my needs & wants this time around, but not much luck finding VBAC-supportive healthcare. The universe is pretty rad, though, and when it led me to Morgan & her amazing team at Bend Birth Center, I knew I had found the perfect fit.

My journey with Morgan was enlightening, inspiring &—most of all—empowering. She was caring & sincere, and her energy always felt calming & comforting to me. With every visit I felt stronger & more confident in my (previously neglected) superwoman powers/inner lioness :) It was a beautiful experience, and I’m forever grateful to have had Morgan on my side through it all.”

“Morgan took excellent care of me during my whole pregnancy. Every prenatal appointment was so mother centered and I felt so very well taken care of.

Morgan welcomed our daughter Brooke on Thanksgiving morning. Morgan and her team were so calming and confident during my birth. It was a wonderful experience and every thing went perfect. I wish more mothers can experience a natural birth as it brings on such confidence to the mother and carries through the newborn phase. I am
Such an advocate of the midwifery model of care as I have had two wonderful experiences.

My postpartum care was again excellent. Morgan came for postpartum visits to my home and got me connected with the best lactation support! Consider yourself lucky if you have Morgan and her team for your pregnancy care ❤”

“We thoroughly enjoyed having Morgan on our birth team. She had such a calming and assuring presence during our entire home birth. Morgan is very patient, relaxed, and sensible and knows exactly what she is doing while helping assist during natural birth deliveries. We will really miss having her as part of our community in Central Oregon. She is a valuable asset in the midwifery/home birthing world. Maine is getting a beautiful gem in its community!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed working with Morgan to birth my baby. Every step of the way she was awesome! Whenever I brought concerns to her she always had relevant evidence-based steps to counter my concerns. She was always positive to trusting my body and listening to me. I always felt supported by Morgan. She is an excellent listener. Morgan was always available and quick to respond to my questions if she wasn’t in the office. She has enough wisdom and humility to know when addition services were appropriate. I loved birthing with Morgan as I always knew she was supporting me on my natural birth journey.”

“Morgan was our midwife for our second child and it was such an incredible gift. Our appointments were always filled with love, a listening ear, and a kind heart. She is knowledgeable and quickly felt like family. We had such a wonderful experience and were able to go through pregnancy with little fears or worries because we knew we were supported and loved with a kind, expert staff.”

“Morgan was such a beacon of light and calm during my pregnancy and the birth of my son. She made me feel
comfortable and eased any stress I and my partner had. Took care of me as much as the baby, as pregnancy and childbirth is an extremely emotional time. She was amazing to have in our home during the birth. I highly recommend her.”

“Morgan is everything I’ve ever wanted or needed in a midwife and care provider. She’s the reason I joined the birth center and my husband and I are convinced my little one waited 41.5 weeks so we would end up on Morgan’s on-call rotation. She is kind, authentic, knowledgeable, and cut out for the hard work that is midwifery. She supported me when things didn’t go our way and I will never forget her support and encouragement. Thank you for everything, Morgan!”

“When I was pregnant with our second, I knew that I wanted Morgan to help birth our baby. She was so kind and gentle with our toddler and I felt a connection with her that felt deep and personal. When I began having consistent contractions, she came over and was very present, but also allowed my husband and I time to connect and go through the beautiful stages of labor. I felt at ease with her and was overwhelmingly thankful for her calm, loving presence.”

“Morgan is the most attentive, intelligent and compassionate midwife and made me feel completely at peace during labor and delivery. She made me feel like I could really do it and it’s so sad to see her leave Bend Birth Center. Thank you Morgan for being there for my amazing labor and delivery of my baby girl!”

“Morgan was an essential part of our birth team. She took fabulous care of me and my little throughout my pregnancy and was phenomenal during labor. She responded immediately to any question or concern I had leading up to labor. While I felt completely in control of my labor, she had a pulse on every moment of it. I was able to have the birth I wanted, knowing she was there to keep me and my baby girl safe and on track.

One of my biggest concerns with a home birth was “the mess”. Morgen put it best, they were “like Girl Scouts”. While I was snuggling with my daughter in those first precious hours, Morgan and her term were doing laundry, washing dishes and preparing food for me. They drained and packed up the birthing tub, too. They really did leave my house cleaner than it was before they got there.

I forever grateful to Morgan for all she did for us. She truly is a wonderful women and midwife.”

“Morgan has been one of two midwives for both of my pregnancies. Her compassionate, non-biased and respectful tone truly set me up for a successful pregnancy and birth that I will cherish forever. Being under her care made me feel safe, well cared for and validated. I can’t imagine going though this journey any other way. Thank you Morgan!”

“Morgan is such a caring person and knowledgeable professional. Her kindness and calm manner kept us at ease during my pregnancy and difficult delivery. We genuinely looked forward to all of our prenatal visits and couldn’t be more eager to recommend her to others.”

“Morgan was an integral support in the birth of my second baby at Bend Birth Center in 2015. Morgan is kind, knowledgeable, and supportive. I gave birth to both of my kids in the Birth Center. During prenatal visits with Morgan, I gained confidence that I had a strong team to support my plan for natural childbirth. On the day of the birth, Morgan made me feel heard and was a calm, soothing presence. I appreciated the post-birth support as well. The best thing about having a midwife is building a relationship with them before, during, and after birth. I highly recommend Morgan for excellent care!”

“We had just moved into our apartment that day, and we had the fortune of having you there with your calm and collected nature helping relieve all of our fears. I remember a quiet reassurance from your words, “strength” and your willingness to let me lean on you when I didn’t think I could hold my legs anymore. When I was scared you gave me space to find the strength inside, and when I needed you to hold my fears you held my hand and kept me in the moment.

I can’t thank you enough for being there for us.
You are a wonderful person and deeply talented midwife.”

“My partner and I met Morgan when I was about 12 weeks pregnant with my first child. We were new to the area and without a local support system. Unsure of many things, and nervous to be without family, all I knew was that I wanted a safe pregnancy and birthing experience. Morgan provided this in an environment that was both comforting and empowering. She provided comprehensive education that allowed me to make informed decisions. After each appointment, I felt secure and confident in what I needed to do to bring my little one into the world. Morgan made herself accessible to the stream of questions that flowed throughout my pregnancy. When I began to experience active labor, Morgan arrived at my home to assist with my birth plan. My hope was to have at-home, water birth experience. However, after extensive laboring, I decided to go to the hospital. Morgan remained at my side the entire time. Even as my doctor began making plans for a C-Section, Morgan helped advocate for my personal wishes. While no longer able to deliver my child because we were at a hospital, she effortlessly moved into an emotional support role. She was in the room as my son was welcomed into the world. She watched he received his first snuggles from myself and my partner. Morgan continued postpartum care through home visits, She attended to my son and talked me through my struggles of breast feeding, all the while continuing to make me confident and calm as a new mother. I truly cannot express the profound gratitude I have towards Morgan. If we were to have another child, I would hope to have someone like Morgan at our side again.”

“Morgan helped me deliver my third baby at home. There seems to be that point in every delivery that we feel like we can’t go on. That we have mo more left in us to give. When I hit this point I remember Morgan taking my hand and looking me in the eyes. No words were needed but I felt her give me all of the strength I needed to finish my journey. Throughout my pregnancy she had so much knowledge and support to offer. She listened intently to any concerns or thoughts that I had and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a home birth.”

“My family was lucky enough to meet and receive care from Morgan while she was one of the midwives at the Bend Birth Center. I loved our visits with her- she always made me feel very supported and took extra care to make sure our 3 year old was involved in my check ups. I highly recommend Morgan to any expecting family, you will be in capable and loving hands.”

“Morgan was wonderful at my children’s births. She has a warm, soothing and confident presence. She was sensitive to what I needed and helped make both my births a more positive experience. :)”

“Morgan is confident, capable, safe, knowledgeable and kind. I was leary moving states and choosing a midwife that could top my first. I was so comfortable with Morgan and her team. Everything went great for both of the births she assisted!”

“My family and I feel incredibly fortunate to have welcomed our second child with the loving support of Morgan! Each and every prenatal visit, Morgan met us with a grounded presence and had a wealth of knowledge, both from years of professional midwifery experience and current maternal health research. I always felt at ease when voicing any anxieties that arose as I moved through my pregnancy journey, with Morgan reflecting back my strength and reminding me of my power. Her confidence in me and my baby’s ability to move through pregnancy, labor and postpartum was exactly what I needed to tune into my intuition and trust in the process. Morgan was steadfast and calm when it came time to break my waters at 42 weeks, and baby was born just a few short hours later, healthy as can be. An extra special piece of this journey was Morgan’s sweet inclusion of our 2-year-old daughter throughout the whole process — handing her the stethoscope each visit to check my growing belly and explaining to answering her eager questions. We really felt like a dear family at the Bend Birth Center along with two other amazing practicing midwives, and I’m filled with gratitude for Morgan’s high quality care, compassion and wisdom!”

“Morgan was the lead midwife for the births of our two children. Both labors were fast and furious, and Morgan handled everything with such a calm and cool demeanor. Her confidence in me through the entire process was empowering, and helped me feel confident going into labor and delivery. Her prenatal and postpartum care are top notch - both as a mama to be and as a new mom, I never felt overlooked. She took all the time needed to listen to me, and to help and encourage. Morgan was always so attentive, helpful, and available to answer all of our questions with up to date and evidence based information. Her bedside manner is something I really appreciated. She became a dear friend to us as she walked through our pregnancies, deliveries, and postpartum seasons with us. Morgan is a top notch professional in her field and an all around outstanding person - we will miss having her in our area to care for us when our next baby comes along!”

“Over the course of my two pregnancies, I explored many options for care providers (perinatologists, in-hospital midwives, OBs, and birth-center midwives). I know without a doubt the most knowledgable, compassionate, and thorough care I received was with Morgan and Jenette at the Bend Birth Center. Unlike many of the doctors I saw, Morgan practices informed choice. She welcomes all questions and concerns and is always happy to share her abundance of knowledge and resources to assist you in making educated decisions. Our appointments were never rushed and I was asked so many detailed questions about my previous birth experience. Morgan took a genuine interest in getting to know me and my family, and my two-year-old daughter loved attending appointments with me. This is the kind of unique, personalized care that every woman should experience. When it came time to labor, I was able to do so fully supported in a peaceful environment with complete trust in my medical provider. I’m so grateful to Morgan for her support and dedication. Her expertise empowered me to have a beautiful birth experience.”

“Our 3rd baby (2nd home birth) was attended by Morgan Miller. For me, with each pregnancy comes the usual concerns about birthing outside of a hospital. Even though this was my 3rd out of hospital birth, I still needed to revisit my values and ensure I felt connected and protected by my care-giver. One of my favorite parts of working with Morgan was her attention and time. I never felt rushed, I never felt embarrassed, I never felt like there was a question too small or too big. Morgan made sure I was heard and comfortable at all times. When it came to making decisions, Morgan outlined the different aspects associated with each decision and never made me feel pressured to go one way or another. She is respectful, open-minded, present, extremely well educated and passionate about women’s health. I felt safe and loved under her care. Morgan listened to my previous birth stories and honored my requests for my third birth. I knew I needed a quiet peaceful environment and looking back on my experience, when I recall the hour leading up to my son’s birth, I don’t remember being monitored or watched closely. Which is funny because when I look back on the video, there was constant monitoring and careful attention to my health and the baby’s health. Morgan and her assistants were within inches of me. My point in saying this is, Morgan and her team were so gentle, quiet and respectful that they managed to do all their work without me noticing. I was able to focus on my body, and stay calm and relaxed. I asked for this type of experience and they made it happen. I am so grateful for feeling heard and having my requests honored. After the birth, Morgan arrived at my home to care for my son and me. She spent a long time with us, answering questions and making sure we were doing well both physically and emotionally. It is such a blessing to stay at home for the newborn checkups. I got to stay in my jammies snuggled with my new baby and she came to me! Of the three different midwives I used for the birth of my babies, Morgan is my favorite. And they were all wonderful so my recommendation means she exceeded the wonderful care I previously experienced. I highly recommend her!”

“It was such a gift to have Morgan as part of our midwife team for both of our pregnancies. She is incredibly knowledgeable and imparted her knowledge in a clear, empathetic way so that we knew all the necessary info and understood all the available options. With Morgan, we felt safe and supported. During our second pregnancy, we had complications early on and Morgan gave us so much time and energy (including going to get an emergency ultrasound with us on a holiday- what service!). We are SO grateful to have had her taking care of us and our babies!”

“We received excellent prenatal care in our appointments with Morgan, and as the time grew closer we felt grateful that we’d be in her care for our birth. Five days before my due date, we had to transfer to an in-hospital birth due to high blood pressure. We felt seen, supported and held throughout the more difficult moments of a different birth than we had planned. I know Morgan did extensive work behind the scenes to connect with the hospitalist to prep them for our arrival. Because of the COVID-19 epidemic, neither Morgan nor our doula could accompany us as they normally would have, but as soon as we arrived we realized the hospital team had been prepared to treat us with special care. It truly shows how skilled communication can trickle down, because even the nurses that we worked with knew we were a birth center transfer, and approached us with what we felt was an extra gentle touch. Morgan and I were in touch throughout the induction to talk through any interventions offered, and she seamlessly picked up care postpartum at our home within 24 hours. Morgan’s approach is based on evidence-based care, warm and empathetic communication, and a true passion for the health and wellbeing of mom, baby and family.”

“My husband and I were fortunate to have Morgan deliver our third child. My labor was short and fast, but she jumped right in with an ease and calmness. Her skill of managing the health of mama and baby, her encouragement during labor and her precision of catching our son during the birth was outstanding. I will say I valued her prenatal support through the pregnancy journey just as much though. She is the type of person that is really good at listening and making you feel like you are heard. Which is so vital when you feel like an anxious pregnant lady! She offered advice and well-researched information throughout the journey, but ALWAYS encouraged me to seek out additional resources so that I could make the decision that felt best for me. Morgan also helped me with placenta encapsulation. I had wanted to try placenta consumption again after not loving it during previous postpartum periods. With her comprehensive knowledge on encapsulation, she was able to offer me an herbal blend with my placenta that worked for me! The placenta capsules were so helpful during the postpartum period. We are so grateful for her presence in our family’s story!”

“My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Morgan and her team during our first pregnancy and it was such a wonderful decision. My husband, who was not interested in an out of hospital birth, immediately warmed to Morgan and changed his mind. We were always at ease with Morgan, and we felt listened to, heard, and supported. She offers all the qualities you could want in a midwife, and you cannot go wrong!”

“Morgan and Sierra are so amazing. Halfway through my pregnancy I needed to switch care and I was scared and stressed because I wasn’t planning on a home birth but when I talked to Morgan, she made me feel calm and safe and validated my feelings about everything. I loved going to my appointments and I feel so lucky that I switched care to them. Morgan and Sierra were both so calming and encouraging while I was in labor and with them I feel like I got the exact birth that I needed. I wouldn’t want anyone else to care for me during pregnancy and I’m so glad I ended up having a home birth.”

“The compassionate, whole person care my partner and I experienced while working with Soft Corner was extraordinary. Not only did they give us the tools and information we needed to feel empowered and thoroughly educated on our pregnancy and birth journey, we made incredible, meaningful, connections to each of the midwives. Finding a sense of “home” in the Soft Corner team’s care, while navigating the new territory that comes with being first time parents meant so much to us.

I highly recommend Soft Corner Midwifery for any/all the reproductive and wellness practices they offer.”

“Morgan and Sierra are so amazing.

“The care I received through Soft Corner Midwifery was absolutely incredible. Morgan and her team are brilliantly amazing individuals who made me feel so comfortable, confident, and safe during my home birth. I am so thankful that I had them around me during the most important moment of my life. Morgan and her team listened to my birth preferences and made sure I felt confident, knowing I was driving the choices around my birthing experience.

I cannot speak their praises enough.

Thank you SCM!
”

“Our birth experience with Soft Corner Midwifery was amazing. I felt safe and supported by the whole team to deliver our baby in the comfort of our house. The post-partum care was also incredibly thorough and allowed us to rest and savor those first days with our newborn baby. I am beyond grateful for Soft Corner Midwifery.”

“Our experience with Morgan and Soft Corner Midwifery was absolutely incredible. My husband and I switched care at 35 weeks during our 3rd pregnancy to Soft Corner. I was hesitant switching over so late in my pregnancy wondering if I would feel comfortable delivering at home with someone we hardly knew. My concerns were immediately put to rest from the first phone call. Morgan put any worries my husband and I had about switching care late in pregnancy! From our first Zoom meeting to each and every encounter we had from then on, she always displayed a calm and kind approach to our care. Morgan is a wealth of knowledge for any question or concern we had from prenatal care, delivery, postpartum, and beyond! All the information she shared was up-to-date and evidenced based. By providing accurate information and judgement-free support, Morgan empowers you to make choices that are right for you, your baby, and family. It is clear by her approach that Morgan is passionate about her desire to care for pregnant mommas, their partners, and families in a holistic way. Morgan was never phased by the chaotic energy at our home or in her office as we toted our 2 small children to appointments with us. She genuinely welcomed and wanted each member of our family to be part of our pregnancy and birth experience. Our birth at home was an experience I will forever cherish. Morgan provided the necessary medical care for our birth, but beyond that, her greatest gift was providing the support and environment for our precious girl to be welcomed into a peaceful and loving space. Should a medical concern or emergency have happened, I know that we were in capable hands. I wholeheartedly trusted Morgan to keep us safe. Our postpartum experience was second to none. We were supported and checked in on frequently. The postpartum care I received was something I think every person who gives birth should receive. As so many things are changing (physically, hormonally, etc.), there is lack of sleep, and big emotions, Morgan was there for support at every change. Maine has gained a rare gem in having Morgan here. She is a champion of what pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care and support should look like. If you are an expecting mom, or know someone who is, I recommend Morgan and Soft Corner with all that’s in me!”

“I am so thankful for Morgan’s help throughout the pregnancy and birth of my two youngest children. She helped my husband catch our youngest daughter and it is a moment we will forever cherish. She is a source of calm strength and kindness. She is someone that brings you joy by just being with. Anyone would be extremely blessed to have her as their midwife through the journey of pregnancy and childbirth.”

“Morgan is such an easy, comfortable person to be with. From the first time I met her I felt at ease, like talking to a long time friend. This was such an important quality for me to find in choosing someone to help me through the birth journey. Morgan is highly skilled, confident, professional, compassionate and always says exactly what I need to hear. There were so many uncertainties and doubts when having my first baby, and Morgan made me feel empowered and at peace every time I saw her. Morgan is an incredibly gifted woman and is someone that I would choose again and again to support me in the mothering journey.”

“Maine is SO lucky Morgan moved here to start her practice. Hiring Soft Corner Midwifery for the birth of our second child was the best decision. I transferred into Morgan’s care at 28 weeks. Before reaching out to her I was homebirth-curious but not yet decided. Because of restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic I began to seriously consider it. Beginning with my first consult, I trusted Morgan and her opinion. Throughout our time with her, I felt taken care of with such grace and focused attention. Morgan has a calming presence and her advice is evidence based. She provided all possible resources and information for us to make our own informed decisions. We were never rushed nor judged. She is professional and respectful while kind, caring and loving. Our three year old daughter loved our appointments at home more than we did, as she was encouraged to be involved. We also really enjoyed working with Morgan’s assistant, Sierra who was at most of our appointments. Once in labor, I was put at ease when Morgan arrived. The birth of my son was the best experience we could have imagined. I didn’t know feeling so happy, relaxed and normal was possible in a birth experience. It was beautiful! Morgan was warm, intentional and very impressive. She held back at all the right times but was right there when I needed her, without realizing it. She brought together an amazing birth team with her assistant and another midwife who I had already connected with during one of my appointments. Everyone made me feel so supported and appreciated for what I was going through. They left our house spotless after it all. My postpartum recovery has been a wonderful, happy time filled with care and attention. Morgan has a gift and we feel so fortunate to have been in her care. My husband and I keep saying we didn’t know this level of care from a provider was possible. She taught us so much, we are glad she was there for this important moment in our life. Our experience was truly special thanks to her.”

“Morgan forever holds such a special place in our lives. She facilitated the peace, strength and intuition that we only had hopes for in our pregnancy and birthing process and ended up gifting us with so much more. We labored at home in a birthing pool for 20 hours, my partner then made the decision to transition to hospital, it was not what we had planned. I had thought I would be so disappointed if I had our baby in hospital having such a clear desire to have him at home. But ultimately, we truly felt we made the right decision given our unique circumstances and I did such a good job and was able to feel the wonderful capacity of my body and laboring at home with family in the comfort of a pool. Morgan supported us through the whole way. We had an incredible experience with Morgan where we were supported with the greatest skill, kindest and most engaged presence and she came to be with me while I delivered our beautiful boy into the world. She was pivotal in my nursing process and the unfolding of the first couple crucial months of being a mother again. I cannot imagine a better person at your side or a more valuable gift to enhance this incredible experience with your family. Baby Jonas and family are so grateful!”

“As soon as I sat down for my first prenatal visit with Morgan, I felt heard, supported, and honored. It was my first pregnancy and I learned so much every visit. Each visit was a relaxed conversation over a cup of tea... which also felt so nice to build a friendly relationship with the one chosen to be at your birth. I always appreciated the extensive knowledge and evidence-based advice Morgan had to offer. Her gentle and confident way of being brought so much ease and peace of mind to my first pregnancy and postpartum journey.”

“There are not enough sweet words in the world to describe how amazing Morgan is and what an incredible experience I had during my care with her both prenatal and during birth and postpartum. She is truly one of a kind. Morgan supported me during my pregnancy with warmth, love, information, professionalism, and familiarity. Throughout my whole journey with her she listened to every word I had to say and supported me through every question and hope. She made all of my birth desires come true and then some. Morgan is honestly the best of the best and I don’t think my birthing experience would have been the same without her. I am heartbroken that she has moved off to Maine to start a new but I am so excited for all of the new Mamas that will be able to share in my magical experience with her as their Midwife. She is someone that you can trust fully to not only care and support you medically but spiritually as well. She is the definition of qualified and the epitome of what a Midwife means.”

“Morgan is an incredible midwife! She is very knowledgeable and capable in the area of midwifery while her calm, loving, and professional demeanor is what you want when having a home birth. I can’t imagine not having her on our “team” when we had our babies! Love this woman.”

“Morgan made us feel extremely safe, well-cared for, and empowered throughout the pregnancy and birth process. I cannot say enough good things about her! She always presented current research to help us make informed decisions. It was very important to us to find midwives who would not be afraid to offer medical advice or referral as necessary and who would not take risks (while of course avoiding any unnecessary interventions); Morgan has a great reputation and filled this need perfectly. She is thorough, thoughtful, smart, extremely kind, and capable. My labor was long due to the baby being “stuck” in an asynclitic position, but I was so thankful to be birthing at home, feeling safe, and given time to let the process happen. Our homebirth is one of our family’s most cherished experiences. It was truly magical. Prenatal and postpartum care was top notch, and she always made our two year old feel welcome at the visits. My main problem with Morgan is that we no longer live in the same area for her to take care of my third pregnancy.”

“I received top notch care from Morgan during my third pregnancy. She was always so kind, informative and thorough during my pre and postnatal appointments. I really appreciated her fun personality and reassurance during the tough times. Morgan has a great balance between western and natural practices for care, you will love her!!!”

“We thoroughly enjoyed working with Morgan during the pregnancy of our first kiddo! She is extremely knowledgeable, research driven, kind, compassionate, warm, welcoming and an expert in midwifery! We did not have the pleasure of working with Morgan during our birth, but we have heard SO MANY words of praise from parents in our community. Bend, OR lost a great midwife and Maine gained an amazing one. You will be missed Morgan! We HIGHLY recommend choosing Morgan to be your birth provider :)”

“Morgan as our midwife was the best decision we made in preparing for our first child’s birth. My husband was skeptical of giving birth outside of the hospital and without an obgyn present until he met Morgan. When we left the initial meet and greet appointment, he was truly blown away at the energy difference in the hospital tour versus meeting our midwife. We felt immediately supported and calm around Morgan. Really take that in- how many people do you naturally feel a sense of calm around? She is one of those people who has found their true calling in life, and we are so grateful we had her by our side in the face of a medically necessary early induction (I mean she was literally by our side at the hospital during the decision making process, during labor, and during pushing). Without her knowledge and support, we would have been fearful about our baby’s safety and questioning our decision making; Morgan was the comforting voice who made us feel confident that, although we did not experience the birth plan we preferred, we experienced a birth that was perfect and peaceful.

One more note, I remember Morgan sitting and crying with me at our home in the nursery as we recapped the whole experience; this moment will forever stick out to me, because I didn’t know I needed it so badly. She took on the role of not only midwife, but in that moment expanded it to friend, sister, mother, and so much more. She is forever a part of my daughter’s birth story and anyone would be so lucky to also get to work with her for such a momentous time in one’s life. ”

“Our family is so grateful to Morgan for walking along side us as we welcomed our third son into our lives!
She has a quiet but strong presence that was available when needed without stifling my own strength. I felt empowered but safe. I loved how she continued to struggle through the new information the medical field had available too. She knew what was old info and what was cutting edge. She gave us her opinion and then asked us ours. It was perfect. Bravo and thank you!”

“Morgan was there at the delivery of two of my sons. She is so calm, kind, and caring. She is also an expert in her field and a great teacher. She makes me feel like I am in charge, yet is there for lending any help I need. Thank you Morgan! ”

“Morgan helped me with my second pregnancy and natural birth. She was very attentive and compassionate to my needs and concerns and helped guide me every step of the way. She was very responsive to my texts, even in the wee hours of the night before I went into active labor! If you are questioning whether or not midwifery care is right for you, Morgan will answer all of your questions and put your mind at ease. She is wonderful and truly amazing at what she does.”

“Morgan provided such wonderful care for two of our pregnancies, labor and deliveries, and postpartum care. I couldn’t have asked for more attentive care during these transitions and growth in our family. Morgan is personable, knowledgeable and professional, providing everything I could have hoped for in the process of adding to our family.”

“I transferred into Morgan’s care late in my pregnancy. As you know, transferring so close to birth can be a daunting experience because it takes time to build trust and connection with your provider.
But Morgan has such an air of care and compassion that it was easy to let any insecurities I had melt away. I think that alone says a lot about the kind of care you can expect from this special lady.

When I think about my birthing day with Morgan, I have one memory that sticks out to me. My second child kind of surprised me with a short labor. I had literally just gotten in the tub when my body pushed the baby’s head out. It surprised me enough that I didn’t realize it but i was leaning over the tub, yelling. Morgan got in front of me and reminded me to breath and brought me back to focus...which is what I needed in that moment.

Thank you for helping me remember my strength. Hugs :)”

“In the first consultation with Morgan she mentioned how the birth of my first child could be a beautiful experience. I had never considered that labor could be anything less than painful and traumatic. Through each appointment, Morgan impressed me with her breadth of knowledge, calm energy and focused presence. I felt supported and comfortable and got a wholistic perspective and guidance on the transition to motherhood. I really could not have anticipated the level of support my family received. Josie is now a healthy, happy, active and brilliant 21-month-old girl. We are forever grateful to Morgan and her team for our magical birth experience.”

“Morgan’s calm demeanor was truly a gift to the anxious mother-to-be that I was. My first delivery was so fast and crazy- I remember being so relieved when Morgan and Janette arrived. I knew that I was in good hands which gave me the confidence to focus on what I was doing. Morgan took such good care of me after Harlan was born as well- I believe she even made me something to eat! I felt so cared for. I was so glad to spend more time with her during my second pregnancy- I looked forward to our appointments. She always answered my questions and calmed any doubts or worries that I had. She is innately good at what she does. ”

“Morgan was the most amazing and supportive midwife I could have possibly asked for. She helped me feel comfortable every step of the way, being a new mom I had no idea what I was doing but she always made me feel confident in myself and my pregnancy. I ended up having to have a c section in the end because of my baby wanting to stay in a breech position, but even though I was no longer in Morgan’s care she still made me feel like she was part of my team. I am so appreciative of her professionalism and the warmth and care she always gave us!”

“Morgan attended the birth of my second child, first homebirth. Her calm presence and peaceful attitude was always reassuring. I felt cared for and that my preferences were respected.
I have also had the privilege of working with her professionally and have enjoyed each encounter. If you are blessed to have Morgan as your midwife, you will be in the best of hands.”

“Knowing Morgan and having the honor of working beside her has been enriching and refreshing. She is a talented, skilled and empathetic midwife with a personality beyond measure. I’m sad that we no longer get to have her by our sides in Oregon, but am thrilled for the families and parents she’ll be serving in Maine. If your looking for an incredible midwife, hire Morgan Miller!”

“I would wholeheartedly refer Morgan to assist with the sacred process of bringing your baby into this world. She is knowledgeable, compassionate, focused, and lovingly dedicated to the care of mother and child. I will never forget the role Morgan played in my daughter’s birth story, or the way she always made me feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. I feel forever indebted to her for allowing me to have the safe and beautiful home birth I always envisioned. She is simply the best.”

“I absolutely loved my time with Morgan! What a blessing she was to me. There are many things I love about her. Morgan has a very calming presence which extends into the tense, high pressure scene of labor. She is professional in her work and is dedicated to giving families a loving memorable experience. Her extensive knowledge and training along with a naturally born gift of good intuition, that can not be taught, put me at ease and gave me peace of mind when it came to the safety of my babies and I. She took the time to communicate things clearly. Never did I feel rushed in an appointment. She will be greatly missed at Bend Birth Center but will bless the lives of those she serves in her new endeavor. We love you Morgan!!”

“I will forever hold Morgan in my heart- she was our rock throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She will always be part of our family.

Morgan listened when I spoke, offered guidance and knowledge when asked and gave me the confidence and emotional support I needed.

From the moment I met Morgan it was clear- I wanted her on my team.”

“Morgan was one of my attending midwifes for the birth of my son (a VBAC). Throughout my care I felt so completely supported and confident. She really listened to me when I expressed how important a home birth was to me, but I always knew that it would never be at the detriment of me or my child. I always felt safe and listened to and had the confidence that if anything needed to change for my care that they would tell me right away. When the big day came and my son was ready to greet the world everyone was calm and supportive as I worked through getting the little guy out. My first child was an emergency c-section and in that birth situation I felt like I had no hand and everything was being done to me, starting with induction. I knew my chances of another c-section with a hospital birth was as high as 80% and that was not what I wanted at all. With my home birth my little guy needed some encouragement with a membrane sweep but within a couple of days my body naturally was ready and I felt like I was the one doing the work, everyone else was just there to support us. There is nothing like the feeling of being home in your own bed when you give birth. And then they came to check on baby and me at my house for the first few visits after! Talk about full service care. I got to rest in a familiar place and most importantly my daughter got to come home from school and greet her baby brother for the first time, that was an incredible moment that we would have missed out on with a hospital birth. I cannot day enough great things about my experience working with Morgan, there was never a moment that I didn’t have confidence in her or myself and I highly recommend her as a midwife. Thank you Morgan!!”

“Not sure how I can put into words all that Morgan did for me with my two babies ( two different pregnancies). I will forever be grateful for all her support and help throughout my pregnancies and deliveries. Her gentle, kind nature and her extensive knowledge on midwifery gave me so much confidence and peace throughout my pregnancies. She not only cared for my unborn child when pregnant but always made sure I was doing well not only physically but mentally also. Her love and care for both me and my babies throughout the whole pregnancy and delivery was above and beyond any care I got with other OBGYN Docs who I had with my first two children. Any woman is lucky to have Morgan for all their prenatal and postnatal care, she is an incredible midwife!”

“I’m so grateful I was in Morgan’s skilled care on two of the most important days of my life. Morgan embodies confidence, kindness, and compassion. She is as heartwarming as they come and truly knows how to build relationships with her families.

Throughout my pregnancies, Morgan welcomed my questions and replied with current, evidence-based information. She truly has the heart of a teacher and provided the education and support I was seeking. I appreciate how she always afforded me time and space to make my own decisions.

During delivery, she honored the way my body wanted to labor, championed me through the most challenging moments, and gave me a calm sense of empowerment. I have a clear memory of being in the middle of an intense contraction and consciously thinking, I’m in good hands, and then being able to ride it out and relax just a little bit more with her by my side. She was incredible at being present, paying attention, and anticipating my needs. I know birth is not perfect or predictable, but I can honestly say my delivery experiences were even better than I had anticipated. Morgan played a significant role in setting the stage for the childbirths I desired and worked so hard on my behalf.

In the hours, days, and weeks after delivery, Morgan created a space where I could actually be honest about my emotional and mental well-being. I truly sensed the depth of her care by how she made me feel seen and heard, especially after my second child was born. I will also always treasure the look of genuine delight she had on her face whenever she reconnected with my growing babies.

Finally, I am forever grateful for the way she inspired me to begin to find my own voice and trust my own instincts as a mother. I have so much respect for Morgan and the incredible work she does. Thank you for being my midwife!”

“Morgan’s professional, attentive, kind, energetic and proactive approach suited us so well. She always gave us the information we needed to feel comfortable and her presence is truly calming. We feel so fortunate to have had such wonderful care.”

“I couldn’t ask for better from a healthcare professional. My husband and I had the opportunity to work with Morgan. She is so compassionate and we always felt so confident in her care. She has a wealth of information, knowledge and gives great advice. We always felt empowered to make the choices that were right for us. We had care from Morgan twice. Sadly, our first baby had a terminal neural tube disorder called Anencephaly and we had to say goodbye to him at 22 weeks. Morgan had been with us from 8 weeks and helped us through this incredibly difficult experience. She handled all of our phone calls to the top hospital in the state, set us up with appointments, counseling, and was as amazingly compassionate as she was supportive. I truly don’t know how we would have made it through that without her. Our second experience was with our current child. She went to great lengths to care for us again. Morgan drove across the country all the way to Oregon to work with some of her current clients (including us) while transitioning to her practice in Maine. I can’t give a better recommendation to all mommas to use Morgan. She will take amazing care of you and help give you the tools you need to have a wonderful pregnancy and home birth.”

“Morgan was such a calm and empowering presence during our whole prenatal, labor and postpartum experience. She always made me feel confident but has a warm presence that made me feel very cared for as well. I was so sad to hear she was leaving Oregon but am excited for everyone in Maine who gets to have her loving hands care for them and their little babes!”

“I met Morgan during my fourth pregnancy. As I had three home births prior, the process wasn’t new to me. Morgan always made me feel that my experiences were respected and what knowledge I had from those, held value. I really appreciated that she listened so well and always left room in our appointments for questions. I was always impressed with her quoting new studies and research. I could tell that continuous education was important to her and that just because she had a license, did not mean that learning was over. Not only does that show humility in her character, but creates a midwife who grows and can best serve her clients and their needs. Morgan always made me feel that beyond being cared for as a patient, that I had a friend. My mental health mattered to her as well as my physical. My most memorable moment with her was in being vulnerable about the struggle with my weight gain. Morgan assured me not only that it was normal, but that the weeks following birth demand much of my body. I needed to trust my body to store up what I needed for those days ahead when I needed a reserve to pull from. I had never heard it explained that way and always felt so guilty for the extra pounds that should “not” be there. Morgan helped me in that moment to trust myself and the process more than I ever had. I highly recommend Morgan and her midwifery care.”
