Autonomous Midwifery Care

Serving the South Carolina Midlands and Upstate, 

under the supervision of Midwife Carey Glenn

My Care Philosophy

My midwifery care is rooted in trust—trust in your body, your intuition, and your unique path to motherhood. I believe you know what’s best for you and your baby, and I’m here to support you with respect, options, and deep listening. You are capable of growing, birthing, and nourishing your baby, and I trust your ability to recognize when something doesn’t feel right. When needed, I offer holistic guidance to help you navigate with confidence. 

I believe that touch is our first resource for healing and utilize fascia release techniques throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period to ease the transitions of motherhood. I believe touch is a human right and that bodywork can transform your experience of pregnancy and birth.

Since 2017, I’ve learned from a wide range of providers and witnessed birth in many settings. These experiences have shaped my devotion to midwifery and to the sacred unfolding of each birthing journey.

It would be an honor to walk with you.

"Kaylin brought a grounded, loving presence to every stage of my pregnancy and birth. As a first-time parent, I never once felt anxious during my pregnancy and was completely confident in the care Kaylin provided. She answered all of my questions with clear, evidence-based guidance while empowering me to make informed choices throughout my birth journey."

What to expect from my care

Prenatal

Prenatal visits are centered on relationship and trust. Each visit is scheduled for a full hour, giving us time to tend not only to your physical well-being, but also to your questions, concerns, and hopes for birth.

We’ll meet once a month until 32 weeks, then every two weeks until 36 weeks, and weekly from then until your baby arrives. This rhythm helps us stay closely connected as your journey unfolds.

Birth 

I join you in active labor, offering steady presence and support throughout your birth. Leading up to that point, I’m available by phone or text to check in, answer questions, and help you tune in to what your body is telling you.

After your baby arrives, I stay for 2–3 hours to ensure you’re both stable, cozy, and well-supported as you settle into those first precious moments.

Postpartum

I return to your home around 24–36 hours after birth to check on you and your baby. Home visits continue on days 3, 7, and at two weeks. During these visits, I assess your healing, support breastfeeding, check on your baby’s growth and well-being, and offer emotional support as you adjust to this new chapter.

After the two-week visit, the remaining postpartum appointments take place in my office. I continue to be available by phone or text if anything comes up between visits, so that you’re never alone in this tender time.

What parents are saying

Taylor S.

Kaylin is a knowledgeable, grounded presence both during prenatal visits and in the birth space. She approaches pregnancy, birth and bodywork with curiosity and reverence. Absolutely recommend her to mothers looking to have a safe and empowered home birth in SC!

She entered my home quietly and respectfully when I was laboring. Her calm, gentle, and patient presence was a welcome one and helped me feel at ease during labor. She knew how to be attentive while also unobtrusive, always giving me autonomy to take or leave any suggestions. She helped support my husband so that he could support me during contractions. She took unexpected events (such as my water breaking in her face!) in stride and good humor. The list goes on! I am forever grateful for the quiet vigil Kaylin kept alongside me and for her trust in me and my body’s ability to birth my baby.

"Where Kaylin truly shined was during my birth. She was the person in the room who carried me through every stage — mentally and physically. I looked to her for reassurance, and she provided endless comfort. Whatever I needed, whether a hug or steady support through intense contractions, she was there. My first birth was an experience I will always cherish thanks to Kaylin."

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I reach out?

Clients typically come into care around 10 weeks gestation. Spots are limited and fill quickly, so early contact helps secure your place and allows plenty of time to build our care relationship.

​

Am I a good candidate for homebirth?

Homebirth is best suited for low-risk pregnancies where families want to make fully informed choices and give birth in a familiar, comfortable environment. During your consultation, I’ll review your health history, outline your options, and provide guidance so you can make the decisions that feel right for you.

Meet the Team

Birth Assistant & Team Doula: Holly Lozano, RN, CD

As a birth worker deeply rooted in faith and the belief that birth is a powerful, naturally designed process, I am honored to walk alongside women and families as they welcome new life. My approach is grounded in respect for the physiological process of birth, a calm and supportive presence, and a commitment to informed, holistic care.

With experience as a doula, placenta encapsulator, and birth photographer, I bring a well-rounded perspective to the birth space—offering not only practical support but emotional steadiness and reverence for each family’s unique journey. I believe that mothers thrive when they feel safe, heard, and empowered, and it’s my joy to help cultivate that kind of environment alongside a skilled midwife.

When I’m not serving birthing families, I’m homeschooling my three little ones, digging into whole-food cooking, or enjoying adventurous moments in nature. Supporting birth is a calling I hold close to my heart, and it’s a privilege to serve families in this sacred season.
