Birth at NCBC
Midwifery-led care for the mind and body. Where you can give birth in your unique way.
Experience NCBC
NCBC is located in the heart of Chapel Hill, NC. Housed in a building with a rich history of physiological birth centered around Midwifery Care, we are grateful to carry on the well honored legacies of our predecessors.
Giving birth at NCBC is an experience that feels deeply personal, calm, and empowering. From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is welcoming, cozy, and intimate.
Our space was designed with comfort in mind, with a sense of serenity that immediately helps you feel at ease. Where your instincts are valued, you are provided the support to move and labor with those you want beside you. NCBC welcomes your support team, whether that's a partner, child, parent, friend, or doula, and others.
We are currently accepting clients with due dates starting in November 2025
