Jessica Borgstrom and the midwife team at CentraCare Monticello are a wonderful option for families seeking midwifery care within a quieter hospital setting. We deeply appreciate that the midwives support the majority of births at this hospital, which can create a different feel for families who desire a more naturally minded, relationship-centered approach while still choosing hospital birth.
Our team has had the honor of supporting births with Jessica and the CentraCare Monticello midwife team, and we have seen the care and calm they bring into the birth space. Jessica especially stands out for her warm, steady presence and the way she supports families with respect, encouragement, and thoughtful care.
One thing we value about this hospital setting is that it often feels more calm and personal than many larger hospital environments. For families who want access to hospital resources but still desire supportive midwifery care, lower-intervention options, and a birth team that respects the natural process of labor, CentraCare Monticello can be a beautiful fit to explore.
We appreciate providers who help families feel informed, supported, and respected while honoring both the wisdom of the body and the importance of attentive care. Jessica and the midwife team bring that kind of support into the birth space, and we are grateful to refer families looking for naturally minded hospital-based midwifery care.
Best for: Families seeking hospital-based midwifery care, a quieter hospital setting, naturally minded birth support, lower-intervention options, and a supportive birth team in the Monticello / Central Minnesota area.

The Mercy Hospital Midwife Team in Coon Rapids is a wonderful option for families who desire midwifery care within a hospital setting. For some families, this balance feels like the best of both worlds, relationship-centered, supportive care with the additional resources and structure of a hospital environment.
One thing we appreciate about this team is the way hospital-based midwifery can offer families a more personalized and supportive approach to birth while still providing quick access to medical care if additional support becomes needed. For families who want a lower-intervention approach but feel most comfortable birthing in a hospital, this can be a meaningful option to explore.
We especially appreciate Samantha Manning and the gentle, caring presence she brings into birth. Her approach feels supportive, calm, and respectful, helping families feel seen and cared for as they prepare for and move through labor.
Another thing many families value about Mercy is the possibility of waterbirth in a hospital setting for those who qualify and when it is available. This can be a beautiful option for families who desire the comfort and relaxation of water while also choosing a hospital-based birth experience.
We appreciate providers who honor the natural process of birth while also bringing wisdom, attentiveness, and thoughtful care into the room. The Mercy midwife team may be a wonderful fit for families seeking supportive hospital-based midwifery care in the North Metro.
Best for: Families seeking hospital-based midwifery care, a supportive low-intervention birth approach, waterbirth options in a hospital setting, gentle care, and birth support in the Coon Rapids.
