MOTHERgold™ at Selah Women’s Health is provided at the same cost as traditional prenatal care because of our desire to love our community well. This is remarkable, as the time you get to spend with your provider and the multidisciplinary team is increased significantly.

Through the help of dedicated volunteers and grant funding, we have been able to offer our enhanced services and supports without an increase in cost to our patients or their insurance carriers. Patients who access medical services through private or public payer programs will still have the same access to care in MOTHERgold. Our program participates with all major insurance carriers, as well as Medi-Cal, Partnership, and MediCare.

We also directly weave in content that would normally be found in separate birthing classes, which can sometimes cost as much as $500. This results in significant financial savings to families overall.

The MOTHERgold™ program is exclusively found at Selah Women’s Health. Because of our huge investment of time and resources into this program, we have focused all of our prenatal care here and no longer offer traditional prenatal care schedules. 

We understand if you are not sure that this type of care will fit you and your family. As this program has developed, we have heard similar concerns from other patients. We encourage you to trial a group setting at least once before making your decision, as we have found that for so many women, the experience speaks for itself. 

Our mothers eagerly anticipate each group session and leave feeling so empowered, refreshed, and supported. We would love to give you the opportunity to sample our approach as an observer. To apply, please call (530) 338-0002 or contact us using the form below.

MOTHERgold™ is not a religious program, nor do we promote a particular religious viewpoint in spiritual care. We believe a person’s spirit is that part of them that is timeless and confers their identity. 

We also believe that connecting deeply with other people and with God requires a spirit that is alive and healthy. We understand how different this can be from person to person and culture to culture. 

Our desire is to provide a space where patients are able to recognize how their spiritual health affects their overall health and the health of their families. In our group sessions, we create opportunities for our patients to experience spiritual connection and peace, which we believe will ultimately grow their individual and family identity in positive ways.

MOTHERgold™ care works well for both low-risk and high-risk pregnancies. Our providers have particular passion to ensure that the same goals of reducing fear and increasing peace are available to high-risk moms as well.

For our patients who have factors that make their pregnancies more medically complicated, we customize additional individual appointments with providers throughout the pregnancy to ensure that these issues are adequately monitored. Additional needs for fetal monitoring are administered according to standard-of-care guidelines by the same nurses and providers who care for all our MOTHERgold patients.

It is sometimes possible to transfer your prenatal care and join our MOTHERgold™ program, particularly if you are relocating to our area. We will request a copy of your prenatal records to be reviewed by our medical director prior to granting approval. 

If you are considering transferring your care from another provider, we encourage you to observe in a group session at least once before making your decision. We would encourage you to try to “catch up” by attending groups more frequently as each of our 6 group sessions present content we feel is essential to your pregnancy and birth experience.
