Because pregnancy and birth are natural physiological events, normal birth does not belong in hospitals.
Most women can give birth without the assistance of a healthcare professional.
The natural process of birth should be interfered with as little as possible.
Only medically complicated pregnancies and labors should be managed medically.

Women can learn to cope with the pain of labor, since it is part of a healthy feedback system in the body.
A woman should be able to include her family in her pregnancy and birth to the extent that she feels comfortable.
The presence of a midwife at a birth, allows many women to feel safer and consequently to have a smoother birth.

The midwife uses education, physical assessment, and emotional, physical and spiritual support to assist her clients through the passage of pregnancy and birth.
