Birth Center Ancillary Service Opportunities
Birth centers can offer so many amazing services to their clients!
As midwives, we wear a lot of hats. Our clients come to us because we provide unrivaled attention in an industry that has historically left them feeling ignored. This is why one of the best ways we can grow our practice is by providing exceptional care across a wide range of specialties. By being able to offer a variety of services, we can provide our clients with the comprehensive care they deserve!
We designed our class, Birth Center Ancillary Service Opportunities, to make your practice more versatile. You’ll learn from Leslie Cornwell, a certified nurse midwife with over 16 years of experience navigating the healthcare industry. Leslie has spent nearly 2 decades assisting midwives as they expand their practice and is thrilled to do the same for you! Our mission is to give you the keys to transform your birth center into a community center that will provide unparalleled care for those who need it.
The course is packed with over 8 hours of content helping you decide on additional services you can offer your clients. We’ll teach you how to provide newborn care, how to assist with lactation, and how to work as a doula both before and after childbirth. You’ll also learn about offering more general women’s healthcare such as gynecology appointments, menopause care, and mental health assistance. We’ll teach you how to bill and code these services to keep your birth center running smoothly. By the end of the course, you’ll be ready to grow your practice by providing additional care while increasing your profitability.
At Empowering Midwifery Education, we want to ensure you’re constantly learning and growing! Once you buy this course, you’ll have lifetime access and can revisit as needed. You’ll have access to any future course updates free of charge. The class is virtual and gives you the ability to learn at your own pace so you can fit it around your busy schedule. You’ll also be able to ask questions throughout and get answers from our expert instructors. We can’t wait to help you unlock your potential by equipping you with knowledge!

Your Instructor
Becoming a midwife has been a lifelong dream. I didn't realize that this wonderful profession would lead me down the path of business. I have found over the years that midwives need to understand business, accounting, financing, marketing, negotiating, and so much more to be successful in today's healthcare system. I love supporting women. By being able to participate in leadership roles and create amazing private practices, I can support midwives just as much as the pregnant women they care for! I am passionate about women's empowerment and women's business ownership. We can serve families best with independent, successful midwifery practices.
I have over 16 years’ of experience in health care. I have worked in hospitals, birth centers, and home settings. I have worked for large non-profit hospitals, small community hospitals, privately run birth centers, hospital-owned birth centers, my own home birth/birth center practice, and locum assignments. Being able to understand the business and financial side of midwifery has shown me how much easier a midwife's practice can be profitable and successful in today's health care ever-changing climate.
Let me help you start your own practice or improve the current midwifery business you are struggling with. I have years of billing, accounting, contracting, business plan writing, and midwifery clinical expertise to make your midwifery practice thrive no matter what stage it is in! Whether you want a small home birth practice, large birth center practice, or booming hospital midwifery practice, I can provide guidance, support, and resources to make your midwifery practice dreams a reality!
