As moms and care providers, we know the current system is broken. The incomplete, reactive, and often over-medicalized care it provides can leave us feeling unsupported and vulnerable — and it is why we have some of the worst outcomes in the high-income world.

We all deserve to give our families the strongest start. And we can do a lot better than today’s “standard.” So, we built Millie.

What’s possible with Millie

Most of pregnancy happens between visits — and parents need care long after the baby comes home. Millie brings you the support and knowledge you need before you know you need it.

Collaborative care

At Millie, midwives care for you with physician consultation when medically necessary. Our model unites human-centered care with clinical best practices.

No need to wait to book your first visit

We know what it feels like to get that positive pregnancy test. You don’t have to wait until 8-10 weeks to meet with someone. Book your first virtual visit with a midwife any time.

1:1 doula education

Every trimester, your dedicated guide (who is also a practicing doula) will walk you through important topics like creating birth and postpartum preference plans.

Ongoing access to your care team

We offer virtual visits when in-person isn't medically necessary for convenience and accessibility. Your care team is also always available between visits via the Millie app.

Remote health monitoring

No more googling symptoms or “is this normal?” Digital health checks and at-home monitoring tools promote early detection of complications to give you more peace of mind.

In-app tools, education + support

Our app delivers expert-created resources before you even know to ask for them. Plus, our ecosystem of providers spans specialties to meet the full spectrum of your care needs.

Home postpartum visit

Instead of one postpartum visit at six weeks, we offer three. The first happens at home — just a few days after birth, when a member of your care team will check in on you.

There for you through the first year

New parenthood can bring up a lot of questions. Get answers through the first year with access to your care team, expert consults, in-app curriculum, and a peer community.
