Home Birth Doulas in Cleveland, OH

"I'm 40 years old and just had our 6th child after a 6 year gap from our youngest. I have given birth in 3 different settings - birth center, hospital and homebirth. I had 2 different midwives before Dorothy due to early retirement for both and they were good, but Dorothy was my favorite for numerous reasons. Dorothy is what I would consider a "gold standard" midwife. Her professionalism, thorough training and diverse experience nationally and internationally stand out. What I appreciated most were the numerous services and products she provided right out of her "mobile office" (AKA vehicle): ultrasound, blood work, and natural supplements to name a few. Not every midwife does this which is why I was very impressed with Dorothy. She has a humble yet confident competence in the knowledge and wisdom she no doubt learned through her training and various experiences, including a peaceful calm demeanor, which I credit to her faith. Great qualities to have in a midwife! She invests her whole self into her vocation and truly exemplifies her passion and artistry for midwifery. She took the time to answer my questions and concerns, educate me on nutrition and other means to have a healthy pregnancy, and even considered my previous pregnancies/births in order to make the right decisions with this most current baby. I'm happy to share that I got the waterbirth that I wanted and Dorothy helped make it happen. Without reserve I whole heartedly recommend Dorothy!"
