Exploring all your options for birth? You have come to the right place.

Our Birth Philosophy
It is our belief that the childbearing cycle is, for the majority of women, a healthy normal function, best completed with minimal interventions and maximum education and support.
We believe that optimum birth experience is best achieved when a midwife and client work closely together and share the responsibility for a successful outcome. Informed consent is used for making decisions regarding care. Clients are given information and resources to research all procedures and tests which enables them to look at pros and cons for traditional care vs alternative care. Clients then can be well informed about their healthcare needs and take charge of decisions made concerning them and/or their newborn.
Each family is unique and will be treated as individuals, with respect and flexibility. Every mother will be given the well deserved opportunity to labor and deliver in the manner and position in which she chooses. Every baby will be provided the best possible, gentle transition from the womb into the loving arms of mom.
Our Midwives
Inga Arts, CPM, LM
Senior Midwife, Owner Serving women as they build their families has to be the best job in the whole world! Making personal touch a vital part of healthcare is such a privilege.
I am Inga Arts, LM, CPM. I’m married to a very supportive husband who has helped see my dream of a birthing center become a reality. We have four wonderful children, all who have been born at home with midwives. I have been involved with birth since 1988. I have been caring for my own clients since 1997 when I started Dayspring.
In 2004 we were blessed with an old farm home to be transformed into a beautiful birthing center. Since then God has put together a great team of women who love to serve and care for women. I couldn’t do all that I do without them!
Carrie Blake, CPM, LM
Senior Midwife
Congratulations on your pregnancy and your wisdom in considering an out of hospital birth! My Name is Carrie Blake and I joined the Dayspring team in January of 2009.
Prior to coming to Dayspring, I had my own homebirth midwifery practice in Colorado from 2006 – 2009. I’ve attended births in Colorado, Ohio, West Africa and now Idaho. My study of midwifery began in 2002 after much prayer regarding what God’s plan was for my career. Along the journey to completing the NARM Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) credential, which I received in 2007, I became a DONA trained doula and a CAPPA childbirth educator. I am currently a Registered Midwife in Colorado.
I look forward to meeting you and serving your family during your childbearing years!
