Currently serving in Ravenna, Kent, Akron, and surrounding areas in NE Ohio
Before Labor
1 to 2 prenatal meetings. We will get to know each other, go over your medical history, discuss labor preferences, and help you prepare for the postpartum period. I will provide helpful handouts and answer any questions/concerns you have about pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum.
I will consolidate information from your birth plan and create a concise document of preferences to distribute to the staff attending your birth.
From the time of hire, I will be available to you for support via phone call, text, and email.
During Labor
I will join you at your birthing location and provide multifaceted support throughout active labor.
If desired and if the situation permits, I will capture and provide you with 10-20 photographs that will be delivered on a password-protected online gallery.
After Birth
I will remain with you for 1-2 hours following the birth of your baby to offer any additional support you need. I will help you get settled, help establish breastfeeding (if desired), answer any questions you may have, and snap a few pictures if desired.
I will come visit you at your home within 1-2 weeks of your birth. I will bring along some birth notes, debrief the birth with you, and check on your mental and physical wellbeing.
I will provide resources as needed.
I will be available via phone call, text, and email for virtual support up to 4 weeks after birth.
