What makes Levana birth different
Levana Birth offers wisdom that has been passed down through many different lineages of midwives. We deeply trust the pregnancy & birth process. Levana Birth Midwifery offers highly individualized and holistic care for those desiring a peaceful out-of-hospital birth.
Individualized, Relational, Whole Person Care
- One midwife for all of your appointments and for all communication during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum (with an assisting midwife at the birth).
- Hour long appointment times.
- Individual recommendations based on your body and your experience.
- Herbal remedies, nutrition and lifestyle changes, homeopathic, and other natural modalities are always our first line of defense.
- My office is nestled in the Rose District in downtown Broken Arrow, in the same building as Laurannae-a sweet little community that makes coming in for care feel even more welcoming.
- Birth in your safest place-home.
Extended Postpartum Care
- Postpartum visits at 24-48 hours, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
- Following you through the 4th trimester and beyond because postpartum is forever!
- Individual herbal recommendations for postpartum mood support.
- Postpartum visits that make space for your healing, nourishment, feeding, and how you’re really feeling, not just how your baby is doing.
Education
We believe in providing the education needed to make autonomous and empowered decisions regarding your births and families. True informed consent begins with knowing all of the benefits, risks, and alternatives to every procedure and intervention. We will give you the resources to make the decisions best for you and your family.
Advocacy
We believe in fiercely advocating for your desires for your birth whether that birth takes place at home, at a birth center, or in the hospital. You are the decision maker for yourself, your baby, and your family as a whole. We will always support you in making those decisions and echo anything you say to others.
Safety
We believe in being a safe place to process fears, joys, traumas, excitement, worries, and all of the feelings that come with growing families. We work diligently to ensure the safety of you and your baby throughout pregnancy and birth. While we trust birth, we are equipped for when something veers off of the path of normal.
Peace
We believe in helping you create a deeply peaceful pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience by truly listening to you and your experience. Pregnancy, labor, and birth provides us with a unique opportunity to learn about ourselves, heal, and give birth to a new and better version of ourselves. We will create a calm and peaceful environment which fosters physiologic birth.
Relationship
We believe in fostering clear communication that leads to a trusting relationship between you and your midwife which aids in shared decision making. Knowing the person who will be with you in the sacred birth space helps keep that space safe and intimate. Deep trust helps makes home birth safe.
Natural Remedies
We believe in honoring the wisdom of the ancient art of midwifery care while blending it with evidence-based practices of today. While there is a time and a place for allopathic medicine, we strongly encourage nutrition and movement, herbs, homeopathic remedies, chiropractic care, and more as first lines of defense.
Meet Your Midwife
Alyssa has been in birth work since 2020 as a doula, birth photographer, and then midwife. Her passion for birth began as a child growing up in India and Ukraine where she witnessed the various cultures’ philosophies surrounding birth. After attending her first birth, her calling to serve women was solidified even further and it has been her driving force for becoming a Certified Professional Midwife. She has had the opportunity to learn the art of birth from many midwives and several obstetricians. Alyssa also has a bachelor’s degree from Oral Roberts University in Biblical Literature with a concentration in the Old Testament, which she tied into midwifery by writing her thesis on the midwives in Exodus.
Alyssa is a child of a deaf adult so is fluent in ASL as well as Ukrainian and Russian. Alyssa and her husband Brett got married in 2025, and he is the best midwifery husband, and loves converting all of his friends to being home birthers. Alyssa loves spending her time rock climbing, hanging out at coffee shops, reading, playing volleyball, and decorating cakes. She is probably the “crunchiest” person you’ll meet and enjoys learning about holistic health and homeopathic medicine.

Alyssa was born to be a midwife. She is not only so equipped with useful knowledge but she is passionate about being an advocate for women and their home birth experience. Her heart is fully in it and you can tell. This is a calling for her not just a job. She helped me birth my second child and I felt like I not only gained a midwife I can trust wholeheartedly but a friend I very much respect and can go to for help. She was extremely respectful to the birthing atmosphere. 100% coming back to her if I ever find myself needing to.

“Alyssa. is truly one of a kind. This was my first home birth out of 3 babies, and the quality of care was vastly different. She was so personable & kind throughout my pregnancy, with every appoitment I left with a smile, feeling assured & lighter. That doesn’t even begin to touch the birthing process- the support and care I recieved was unimaginable. I will always look back on my daughter’s birth and beam with joy.”
