Midwives & Home Birth Midwives Near Me in Sayreville, NJ

I believe birth is a journey, not a medical event to be managed. My role as your midwife is to walk beside you: to listen, to guide, and to protect your right to make informed choices about your body, your baby, and your birth. I began my career in 2006 as a NICU nurse, caring for the tiniest and most fragile newborns. In 2009 I became a midwife, first serving families at a community medical center and a community hospital. That background shaped how I practice today. I deeply trust the normal process of birth, and I am clinically ready when birth needs more support. I have attended births at home and in the hospital, and I know how to bridge the two calmly and safely. Almost ten years into my career as a midwife, I became a mama myself, and my two boys taught me more than any textbook. With my first son, I planned a homebirth. When labor needed more support, I transferred to the hospital and gave birth by cesarean. I know firsthand the disappointment, the grief, and the strength it takes when birth doesn't go as planned. With my second son, I had a successful VBAC at home. That birth brought healing and reminded me how powerful our bodies are. I have been on both sides of the bed. I understand what it means to hope for a certain kind of birth, to need a change of plans, and to come back and birth again with confidence. Whether you're planning your first homebirth, hoping for a VBAC, or healing from a past experience, I will meet you with honesty, safety, and deep respect for your journey. What I offer • Full-scope homebirth midwifery: prenatal, birth, and postpartum care • Hybrid prenatal care with in-office visits and home visits from 37 weeks (or home visits throughout) • VBAC support and counseling • In-office ECV (turning) for breech babies • The Hospital Birth Bridge Program: in-home labor assessment and support for families planning a hospital birth, so you arrive at the right time • Lactation visits with a Certified IBCLC: in-home or in-office help with latch, supply, pumping, and feeding challenges • GYN wellness care: annual exams, preconception care, birth control, and hormone health from your teens through menopause • Childbirth, breastfeeding, and newborn care classes • Postpartum recovery and whole-woman care through my sister practice, ReGlo Aesthetic & Wellness

Hello-my name is Lesley Franco. I am a licensed Certified Professional Midwife located in Asbury Park, NJ and serve families in the 1 hour vicinity. I offer respectful, individualized care for folks wishing to birth in the comfort of their own home, as well as The Birth Center of NJ. I offer a "Hello Visit" - a free, 1 hour consultation in my office - to get all of your questions answered and allow us to see if we're a "good fit".

I have been attending births since 1996, first as a doula and childbirth educator and since 2008 as a licensed midwife in NJ and 2010 in NY. I have been in private practice and partnerships with wonderful midwives and have mentored many students through the process of becoming a midwife in the apprenticeship model. I believe birth is sacred, and that the sovereignty of the birthing person must be kept in mind throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Keeping reproductive justice at the forefront of the work midwives do is critical to reducing maternal and infant mortality in the United States. I believe that midwives have a responsibility to that work and are the answer to the maternal mortality crisis we are facing. I have had multiple leadership roles at both state and national levels and continues to volunteer helping to move midwifery forward in both NJ and NY with the goal of recreating systems so that birthing people can have access to the equitable and culturally congruent care they deserve. I am the mother to five amazing adult children and Grammy to four precious grandchildren. The birth of a child is an amazing mixture of physical happenings, emotional ups and downs and spiritual and personal growth. It brings with it the realization that we are powerful and powerless at the same time; that we can be in control while surrendering; and that nothing else at that moment, hour, day or even days matters, only the intensity of the work we have to do to bring this precious life from us, to us. It is a true blessing and an honor to be present, and I feel privileged to be a part of the journey.

My calling for birth work started with a traumatic first birth, but has opened my eyes to the beauty that is child birth. I began educating myself which resulted in discovering what a doula was. I felt in my heart if I was able to rewrite my birth narrative, then I can be that person for others. I began attending births as a doula in November 2021. Along this journey, I became pregnant with my third child and was able to experience the difference the midwifery model of care can make. As I carried my child in my womb, attending mostly hospital births as a doula, I saw so many women not being heard or respected. I felt this urgency to become a midwife myself, because all women deserve to be supported. Birth is a natural event that sometimes needs medical attention and not the other way around. I was so inspired to make this my life’s work that I enrolled at the National College of Midwifery September 2022. I have not only been a victim myself but witnessed how our culture has stripped women of their birthing power. I have had three very different personal experiences with three very different births myself. One very medicalized birth turned into cesarean, one unmedicated vbac in a hospital and my last birth was at a birth center ! My hope and passion is to help other women feel the power that comes when their autonomy is left intact! I believe that birth is sacred. I believe in you and your ability to birth. I hold space for the spiritual, the physical, the emotional. I am here to help you with your fears, your hopes, and your dreams. In January 2023 I decided to attend a reiki 1 and 2 training. I have been incorporating this spiritual modality when requested. The pairing on energy work within the birth space has had a magical impact on my clients and my own personal enlightenment. I believe that every woman deserves to birth in a way that is safe for her and her baby, in a way that assures she feels honored and supported.

Hi, I'm Sarah and I founded Forever Doula because I think babies are the absolute best (and so are their moms and dads). I am a DONA trained Birth and Postpartum Doula, a Birth and Bereavement Doula through StillBirthDay, a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, a Spinning Babies Certified Parent Educator, and a Certified Lactation Counselor. Before becoming a doula I worked with children in education, specializing in care for kids with special needs. I absolutely loved my job. This sparked an initial passion in me for children and their care. In 2014 my husband and I found out we were going to have our first baby. So exciting (but also a little scary)! I quickly realized how significant care for mom and baby is during pregnancy, birth and newborn stages. Oftentimes we emphasize the care a baby needs. It’s natural - they’re so small and rely on us for everything. But while their care is so important, we can inadvertently disregard the care moms need as well. It was through my own experience I learned that great care for baby begins with great care for mom. It was that truth that turned my initial spark of passion into a life changing journey. I was hooked. Being a doula has been the most rewarding and satisfying job of my life (besides being a mommy). My research, training, and extended experience has shaped the way I approach doula care: I support informed birth choices and empowerment. In simple terms, I believe all moms should have the support to birth and care for their baby, their way. No pressure and no judgment. I’ve worked with moms who know exactly what they want and need my help to achieve that. I love that! I’m on your team all the way. Other times moms need help figuring out what they want, and I love that too! It allows me to offer them all of the information, research and education I have stored up so they can have that “Aha!” moment when they finally discover which approach resonates with them. It’s such a beautiful thing! I truly believe great care is hinged on great education. I’m extremely passionate about educating mothers to learn what changes are occurring in her body, details about labor and delivery, as well as providing comfort measures to ease her body into birthing her baby. It’s my goal to support you by offering evidence-based information, teaching you how to self advocate for your needs, and being physically present at the delivery, as well as providing continued postpartum care. At Forever Doula, we understand that no two births are the same (I myself had three very different births) and every postpartum journey holds its own unique challenges. We’re here to help you through it all, providing you not only the care you desire, but the premium support you and your baby deserve. Together, we’re going to make your dream a reality.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based doula support for expectant families seeking an empowered and holistic birth experience. I specialize in prenatal education, continuous labor support, and postpartum care, ensuring that birthing individuals and their families feel informed, nurtured, and confident throughout their journey. My hope is to create a calm, supportive, and judgment-free space where families can embrace birth with trust, strength, and peace. Whether you desire hands-on comfort techniques, advocacy in a hospital setting, or emotional reassurance in your home birth, Ivy Haven Birthwork is dedicated to honoring your unique path to parenthood.
