Meet The Team
You will receive routine prenatal care throughout your pregnancy starting around twelve weeks. Monthly prenatal visits will allow me to monitor the health and well-being of you and your baby.
After labor begins, I will come to your home. I will be there to monitor vital signs, give guidance, encouragement and more as you work towards the birth of your baby!
I will come to your home for your initial postpartum visit. After that, we will meet at my cottage for postpartum exams. These visits include newborn exam, monitoring mom's healing, breast feeding evaluation, and more.
You don’t have to wait for a 20-week ultrasound to find out your baby's gender! I am now offering a blood test gender reveal that you can take at my clinic as early as 6 weeks! Results can be received as soon as 24 hours after the test has been submitted. SneakPeek blood tests are the #1 OBGYN-recommended gender test that tells you over 99% accuracy.
More About SneekPeak
My name is Kelly Fournier. I am a Certified Professional Midwife located in Southwest Missouri, where I have been practicing midwifery for the past 6 years. During that time, I have had the privilege of delivering over 450 babies. It is my passion to help women feel informed, supported, and confident throughout their pregnancy, labor, and birth. I want women to know that they have the right to make decisions for themselves and their babies.
I am a wife to my best friend, Steve, of 42 yrs. I am the mother of eleven amazing children and grandmother of forty-two grandchildren, most of which I have had the pleasure of helping bring into this world. I have been delivering babies for over 15 years. My journey to become a midwife grew out of my own birth experiences in having my own children at home. My birth experiences with my own home birth midwives were both empowering and life changing.
