Hospital-based midwives, home birth, OBGYNs and family practice doctors are ALL birth options in the Chicagoland area. I can’t count the number of families that I have spoken with who did not realize they had options for their birth. Knowing the options you have for your birth is critical and will empower you to have a more positive experience!
As doulas, we know that having a care provider that you trust and that you feel aligned with is one major factor in birth satisfaction and achieving as close to your birth goals as possible. We want families to feel cared for, trusted, heard and respected in pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
In the Chicagoland area, we have recently lost two amazing and well-loved midwifery groups. It has certainly been a loss for our families and birthing communities, BUT you still have options. We still have many incredible birth and midwife options in Chicago and within the suburbs.
Here is a comprehensive list of Midwives in the Chicagoland area. Please reach out to us to learn more about your birth options, doulas and childbirth education. Arrange a complementary call with a knowledgeable doula.
