My Assistants:
I am currently working with one student midwife under supervision. You will meet her either during prenatals or at your home visit around 37 weeks. She will accompany me to your birthing and help with managing your labor/delivery, as well as postpartum visits by performing duties such as Newborn Screening test, Newborn Hearing test, Pulse Ox tests, breastfeeding support, etc. She is certified in Neonatal Resuscitation and/or adult CPR.
Should you desire to hire a doula or have additional family/friend members present, that is your choice. My intention is to have at least 2 experienced attendants at your delivery.
The new CPM bill requires all midwives to have the CPM certification by 2018. I plan to help some of the area midwives to achieve that goal, so I may have 2 attendants besides myself at your birth.
Heather Lemanski, Blue Water Midwifery
Heather Lemanski has been assisting at births since 2012. She’s the mother to four children, three of which were born at home. Heather has attended over 100 births and is in the process of completing the North American Registry of Midwives certification process to achieve the Certified Professional Midwife credential.
“I gave birth to my first child in a “normal, induced hospital birth” in 2005. It was a “typical” American birth and while becoming a mother for the first time was joyous in itself, her birth left me feeling like I had missed out on something. My transition to motherhood was complicated with the feelings that my birthing experience could have been different, better, special. Not something I needed to be rescued from, but something I needed to experience fully and in my own way. This led me on the path to exploring my choice of home birth. When I gave birth to my second child in my own home in 2009, I felt that there was nothing I could not do. It was during my third pregnancy in 2011 that I felt the calling to birth work and midwifery. I feel all women should have the choice to birth how, where and with whom they want. Normal labor and birth is not an emergency and does not have to be a medical event.
It is my belief that your labor and birth is a sacred time. It is a great honor and privilege to be invited to be part of such a momentous event."

Tiffany Timmins, HypnoBirthing® Practitioner
I am a HypnoBirthing® Practitioner and owner of Birthing by Calm HypnoBirthing® Services. I am also certified by the National Guild of Hypnotists as a Consulting Hypnotist.
I have two children. My first was birthed the "normal" way and that motivated me to do it differently the next time. My second child was born at home, with a midwife, and I used HypnoBirthing® to remain in tune with my baby and body during the birthing. That experience was so profound that I decided to get educated and teach it. Birth should not be feared. It should be anticipated calmly and embraced with love and confidence. I look forward to teaching and sharing HypnoBirthing® with you and your companion. www.BirthingByCalm.com Office and classes are in Macomb County. |

Jill Reiter, CPD - 'The After The Baby Lady'
I am a Postpartum Doula and my business is The After Baby Lady. I came up with that name because I support families after they have a baby.
Some mothers and fathers feel nervous and under-prepared to care for their new baby or maybe you don't have the reliable, helpful support you know you'll need after baby arrives. That is where I come in, to help and support in many different ways.
My husband likes to say I am the instruction manual for babies. I love this analogy. It is my pleasure to work with new parents to help them feel confident, supported and well prepared for their new role.
