About the Midwives

Carolee Hall LM, CPM was inspired to become a midwife through her own birth experiences and the loving care she received from midwives during her pregnancies. Not only did they provide a beautiful model of care, but also encouraged her in her path to midwifery. A 2005 Seattle Midwifery School graduate, Carolee preceded her midwifery education with certification as a doula, childbirth educator and lactation educator. During this time she helped found a hospital-based lactation clinic. Breastfeeding support continues to be an important aspect of Carolee's work as a midwife.

Carolee believes in the sacredness of birth. It is her hope to partner with women and their families throughout the passage to parenthood in order to support their birth journey. She believes this is best done by building a close and respectful relationship that honors the family's inherent knowledge of birth while providing information in a manner that compliments individual learning styles.

Carolee lives rurally with Jay, her husband of over twenty years and their four wonderful children. Without their loving support she could not be the midwife she is today.

Constance Frey LM, CPM
As a midwife, Constance honors the authority of each woman over her body, her care and the health of her child. Being both competent and compassionate are her core values. She’s a strong woman who listens well and offers gentle and loving support as well as frank and open communication.

Now in her 8th year of practice, Constance has attended over 500 births. “But I still feel awe and respect the sacredness of each birth,” she says. Knowing that no two pregnancies are the same, she cherishes the uniqueness of each woman, family and child. She sought midwifery care for the birth of her first child 20 years ago, and has worked in the field of women’s health ever since. Both spiritual and scientific, she strives to combine the ancient wisdom of our foremothers with modern, evidence-based care.
