Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Battle Creek, MI

Hi there, my name is Sara and I am a certified birth and postpartum doula with an M.A. in Early Childhood Development. I have been providing compassionate care for babies, children and adults for over 20 years. My love for helping others has helped me gain valuable experience as a teacher, youth treatment specialist, nanny, mentor, wellness/life coach, and a caregiver for individuals with specials needs. I am also currently working on my yoga teacher certification and studying herbalism. I am dedicated to providing compassionate care and guidance to parents and families; helping them to feel supported and empowered through out their pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum journey.

I’m a doula and placenta encapsulation specialist serving Ottawa and Kent county. Im a birth nerd, who wants all woman to feel empowered by whatever birth they choose.

I believe support for each mama looks different. I am passionate about supporting moms who are first time moms, single moms and moms who are looking to birth unmedicated whether in hospital or out of hospital birth. I have had two home births and I hope to help empower other mama's and their voice in their pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience.

Hey there, I am a young woman who has a heart for God, birth, and serving others. I started my birth work journey when I was seventeen years old, and have fallen in love with supporting other women in pregnancy, labor, delivery, and the postpartum period. I took my Doula training a year ago through Your Cherished Birth, and have been working on achieving my certification since then. Like everything else, I believe our bodies have been designed perfectly and without flaw, by God. Birth should not be an abnormal, impossible and scary thing, but rather a natural, beautiful and empowering experience. And this is more easily achieved with a Doula at your side reminding you to take care of yourself, advocating for you and your husband, and giving you ways to cope with the intensity of labor.

I am a licensed certified professional midwife with a bachelor's degree in the science of Midwifery. I have been licensed since July 2023. I have served well over 200 women in childbirth and love every single moment of supporting women in the respectful care of Midwifery. I am a God fearing, Bible believing home schooling mama and dedicated wife to my husband Patrick. A little goofy, a little sunshine, and I love singing at births while waiting on babies.

My name is Claire and I am starting my doula journey. I feel that I have been called to support women during pregnancy and postpartum. I'm outgoing, supportive of your choices as a mother, and a great listener. I am skilled at de-escalating situations in which you may feel panicked or afraid, and explain things in simple terms so that they aren't overwhelming. I will advocate for you in whatever situation you need, whether with a high-pressure medical provider or your nosy mother-in-law. I have worked with children 5 to 18 years old who have mental, physical, and emotional handicaps as well as a multitude of students who have Autism Spectrum Disorder. Working with these students has brought me so much joy and understanding of a world that can be very hard to explain to those with no experience in it. Whether it is you, your children, or loved ones who identify with the previous disorders, I would be beyond honored and ecstatic to help work through the crazy mystery and miracle of birth. I am currently going through the certification process to be a doula and need to attend three births to be fully certified. I am looking to help anyone I can in this process.

Hi, my name is Chante Shine. I am a wife, mother and cancer survivor. It was after my own two wildly different but equally amazing birth experiences I realized that I had a passion for birth. For years afterward, I helped to guide my friends through their birth journeys but after my life changing struggles in 2022 I decided, life is short and there is not a minute to waste! So, in 2023 I decided to make it official and get my Birth Doula Certification. I also went ahead and added Postpartum Doula, Breastfeeding Counselor and Childbirth Educator Certifications to my agenda! I am currently working my way through these classes, and I could not be more excited and thrilled to start working with expecting parents such as yourselves!
