Do you want to feel in control in labor? Do you need a birth plan that will work? With your sweet baby in your arms, do you want to look back and say, "I did it!"? Hi, I am Robin -- and I am here to remain by your side as you accomplish all of this! I am a Certified Birth Doula and Certified Breastfeeding Counselor, an Evidence Based Birth Professional and Certified Hypnodoula. I am also a CASA, a volunteer at my local hospital, and I care deeply about my community and seeing women enter childbirth feeling centered and ready. I accept Medicaid and private insurance. An inability to pay would never prohibit me from helping a family. I support women and families throughout the beautiful Ozarks.

I cannot recommend Robin enough! She was the perfect addition to my birth team! She helped me recognize, evaluate and process possible situations that could arise during labor/delivery which helped me go into my birth experience with as much knowledge as possible. She has a very calming presence yet is willing and ready to “go to bat” for her clients when necessary to help them have the best birth experience possible! The amount of time and energy Robin devotes to her clients is unmatched- From answering all of my questions, to providing research articles to help me make informed decisions, to guiding me through various helpful movements and positions prior to and throughout labor and documenting the birth of my daughter. I am so glad I had Robin by my side throughout my pregnancy, labor and delivery and I will definitely be using her services again for any future babies we have.

Hi! My name is Susan Preston. I am a Jesus lover, wife, mom of five, Gammy to one, and business owner. I live in Prairie Grove and serve families across Northwest Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma. Caring for families in general is a joy, Postpartum care and birth planning are my passion. Being a doula is a calling I am extremely proud and blessed to embrace. Whether that be walking with you hand in hand through birth, after birth, educating, goal setting, or referring. My heart is to see families flourish and thrive. No matter if this is your first baby or your fifth I would love to be part of your village! I have served with The CALL (supporting and encouraging foster/adopt families), the Independent Living Program through DCFS (helping teens that have aged out of foster care navigate adult life), Loving Choices crisis pregnancy center (as Site Director), and so much more. When I'm not loving on families I enjoy glamping, hiking, the lake, travel, cooking, and getting lost in a good book.

Susan is very down to earth, friendly, and thoughtful. She helped us think and plan through our first pregnancy, as we had no idea where to start. It was truly a blessing having an expert in your corner to help navigate all the expected and unexpected things that come with pregnancy and new parenthood. Now that our baby is here, Susan still regular checks up on us to make sure our family is doing well and thriving.

Recent midwife reviews near Joplin

Emily Myers is a skilled and kind midwife, and we are blessed to have her professionally serving the Joplin area. She assisted me in having the VBAC I really wanted, and I would gladly use her services again. She provides comprehensive care and is educated on proper blood work, urine samples, and the healthy growth of a mother and developing child. She stays calm and supportive and assesses each situation logically. I highly recommend her services to support the delivery of your healthy baby.

Wow, from the moment I met Robin I could tell she is a special person. Intuitive, knowledgeable, and kind, Robin helped me navigate each decision throughout my birthing journey with grace. Sharing her experience, science based research, and wisdom helped empower me to make confident, informed choices. Her moral support and knowledge throughout my labor were invaluable, and I don’t know how I would’ve gotten through it without her. Always professional, present, and warm, I felt comfortable with her every step of the way. I can’t recommend this service highly enough, thank you Robin we are so grateful for your help in bringing our baby boy into the world!
