She is certified as a childbirth educator, birth and postpartum doula by several organizations and is also a trainer for ICEA and DONA.
Heather, our lactation consultant, worked with her on breast feeding and we have been giving both mom and baby round the clock care.
Does anyone have a ob/gyn doctor that they recommend(female). Just moved here and also found out I’m pregnant.
Thanks,
Hi April! Congrats on the pregnancy. I used Seton Health in Clifton Park and saw the midwives for both pregnancies. I had a very good experience!
I’m a local photographer specializing in newborns under 2 weeks old. I would love to get the word out however possible!
