THE BIRTH HOUSE, LLC

What THE BIRTH HOUSE, LLC does

The Birth House, LLC operates a free-standing, CABC-accredited birth center located in Olympia, Washington, within Thurston County. Founded in 2014 and accredited since 2015, the facility functions as a non-hospital maternity care site offering prenatal care, labor and birth, and postpartum care, with the distinction of being the only provider of water birth services in the county. The center is configured with two private birthing suites, each equipped with deep birth tubs, and operates with a small clinical team of 2–5 staff including midwives Megan Felling, Tiffany Heiges, Carolee Hall, and Constance Frey. The facility also holds a Gold Level Breastfeeding Friendly Washington designation and operates in physical and operational adjacency with Around the Circle Midwifery, LLC.

The underlying service model is midwifery-led, out-of-hospital maternity care. There is no proprietary technology platform described in available materials; the offering is delivered through physical clinical infrastructure, licensed midwife labor, and standard prenatal-to-postpartum care pathways. Revenue mechanics are based on per-patient maternity care billing, likely through a mix of self-pay and insurance reimbursement for bundled maternity episodes (prenatal visits, birth, postpartum), consistent with how independent birth centers operate in Washington State.

The business is positioned as a small, locally embedded alternative to hospital-based obstetric care, targeting expectant parents in Thurston County seeking low-intervention, water-birth-capable maternity services. Its go-to-market is community- and referral-driven rather than enterprise sales, and its addressable market is structurally constrained by the two-suite capacity and single-county geography.
