Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Cranston, RI

I am a full-spectrum doula, offering support in reproductive health, birth and labor, and postpartum care in Connecticut and Rhode Island. I love doula work because I deeply value the one-to-one relationships I build with clients, walking alongside them during one of the most important and transformative experiences of their lives. My passion for supporting, educating, and empowering people giving birth comes from my commitment to addressing the maternal and infant health disparities that disproportionately affect Black women. My goal is to help all birthing people—especially Black women—feel confident, informed, and supported by: learning to trust their bodies, learning to trust themselves to make informed decisions and advocate for the birth experience they desire, and receiving culturally responsive, non-clinical emotional, physical, and informational support before, during, and after birth. It would be an honor to support you on your birth journey. I work collaboratively with you and your support team to create an experience where you feel confident, informed, and surrounded by care, love, and respect. I welcome you to schedule a free, 30-minute consultation to help us get to know one another, decide if we're a good fit and so that I can also answer any questions you may have.

Hello, dear mama, DoulaVitaB ,I am a wife, mother to two, and grandma to two. With over twenty years in the medical field, I have always been drawn to caring for others, but becoming a doula was my true calling. Why do I do this? It is my belief that every mother should have someone by her side. My only goal is for you to experience your ideal birth, whatever that looks like for you. Care, intuition, and confidence are what I bring to you. I'm here to support you, provide compassionate, judgement-free care, and help you make the choices that feel right for you.

As a mom to 15 children (14 living), I’ve walked through the beauty, challenges, and sacredness of motherhood. My journey into the world of birth work started with my own experiences—each birth unique, each story deeply personal. Through those moments, I realized how crucial it is to have a steady, knowledgeable, and compassionate guide by your side, and I felt called to be that guide for others.

I am a home birth Midwife, I have been attending home births Iin Eastern Massachusetts for 34 years. Please feel free to contact me if you would like to learn more about my services.

Hello, I’m Amber, the heart behind Life’s Journey Doula Services, and I’m honored to support families through one of life’s most meaningful journeys—welcoming their baby into the world. I believe birth is more than just a moment in time; it is a powerful and deeply personal experience that deserves to be approached with compassion, respect, and support. My philosophy as a birth doula is centered around making sure you feel heard, informed, empowered, and never alone throughout your birth experience. Every family, every pregnancy, and every birth is different. I don’t believe there is one “right” way to give birth. Whether you are planning an unmedicated birth, considering pain relief, planning a cesarean birth, or simply want to remain open to where your journey takes you, my role is to support your choices without judgment. I provide continuous emotional, physical, and informational support, while creating a calm and reassuring presence during labor. I’m there to encourage you, help you find comfort measures that work for you, advocate for your wishes, and remind you of your strength when things feel overwhelming. Most importantly, I want you to feel confident in yourself and your ability to birth your baby. My goal is not to tell you how your birth should unfold, but to walk beside you through it—honoring your voice, your choices, and your unique journey. It would be an honor to be part of yours. ❤️

Hello everyone! My name is Marissa Monteiro, and I am a trained birth doula proudly serving families throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts. My passion for caring for others has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. With over seven years of experience in healthcare, my background includes working as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Certified Medication Technician (CMT), and experience in surgical services, alongside training in phlebotomy and EKG. These experiences have allowed me to care for individuals from all walks of life during some of their most vulnerable moments. As the founder of Mama Rissa’s Birth Garden, I believe that pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are more than medical experiences. They are deeply personal, emotional, and transformative journeys deserving of compassion, patience, education, and genuine support. My philosophy is rooted in the belief that every birthing person deserves to feel heard, respected, empowered, and actively involved in their own care. I strive to create a warm, judgment-free environment where families can ask questions, express their fears, celebrate their milestones, and navigate their experiences with confidence. As a woman of West African and Puerto Rican heritage, I also recognize the importance of culturally sensitive care, representation, and advocacy within maternal health. My goal is not to tell families how their birth experience should look, but to help them discover what feels right for them while providing continuous emotional, physical, and informational support. To me, being a doula is more than a profession. It's an opportunity to build meaningful connections, nurture families, and make sure no one feels alone during one of life's most significant transitions. At Mama Rissa’s Birth Garden, my approach is simple: nurturing families, honoring choices, and supporting every birth with heart. 🤍

Hi there! Congratulations, expectant parent! I am a Certified Birth Doula & work in the Greater Boston area. I am passionate about providing access to birth support & am certified to take Mass Health members' insurance. I work with midwives in home birth settings; I work in hospitals in Boston, Framingham, Worcester, etc. This year, I was inducted into my college's Hall of Fame (sporty girl over here!) so I bring a physical strength alongside a deep serenity to all birth settings. I believe there is a sweet spot between kinetic intuition (let the person birth!!) & science therefore I arrive at this practice from this lens. I'm here to listen to what type of birth you're preparing for or beliefs you have as this is paramount to inform us (we're a team) & guide your birth in the most aligned & authentic way possible. When I am not on call, supporting pregnant people during prenatal visits, or nourishing folks during postpartum, I focus on building Earth Allies, my organic plant-based company that I founded in California. I am a mother to a two year old; I am in the process of adopting her out of the MA foster care system. May your pregnancy & birth be a positive one for YOU & your baby/babies.

Are you excited about birth, but overwhelmed by how much there is to learn, decide, and prepare for? Hi, I’m Perrin O’Malley, a birth doula and women’s health educator. I support women who care deeply about having a positive labor experience and don’t want to learn through trial and error. Together, we get ahead of labor by understanding your options, preparing for different outcomes, and building a plan that honors your dream birth while keeping you flexible for whatever unfolds. My approach is calm, confident, analytical, and deeply attuned to the emotional and physical experience of birth. I believe the mother is the center of the birth — her body, her values, her safety, and her voice lead the way. As a mother myself, and after speaking with over 100 mothers about what they wish they had known before birth, I help clients move from worried and fearful to supported, informed, and empowered.

Hello! I am a graduate of Eyla Cuenca's Uncovering Birth's (www.uncoveringbirth.com) Mastercourse in doula training and birth education. I am eager to support expecting mothers.

I began LIFEVINE in 2012 and have been supporting families as a nanny, caregiver and business owner for years and look forward to this next phase of service reaching expecting mothers. I am currently in Rhode Island, but am available to travel to Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York.
