Alice Sanpere, LM, CPM
Alice has been delivering babies in the Tallahassee area since 1985. She received her degree from the North Florida School of Midwifery in Gainesville. She previously worked for the Tallahassee Birth Centre and later opened her own home birth practice. She now owns and operates the Birth Cottage and enjoys a harmonious relationship with all her families.
Layla M. Swisher, LM, CPM
Layla is Alice's daughter and was raised with the philosophy that birth is normal. She joined Alice at The Birth Cottage in 1999 and became her birth assistant. After the birth of her son Aspen, a cesarean delivery due to a knee presentation in 2001, she decided to go to the Florida School of Traditional Midwifery in Gainesville to follow her mother's footsteps. She graduated in August 2004 and she and Alice became a mother/daughter midwifery team. In August 2005, Layla had a VBAC in the hospital and delivered her second son, Canyon, into her own hands. She loves idea that the babies of Tallahassee that her and her mother catch may one day be the mothers she guides through labor.
