An active list of Independent Doulas serving Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan

OHMI Midwives believes families deserve access to a broad network of pregnancy, birth, postpartum and infant-care resources. We've compiled this directory of independent doulas and other trusted resources serving Toledo, Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan to help families explore the support available in our community.

 

The doulas listed below are independent professionals and are not employees or representatives of OHMI Midwives.

This directory is provided as a community resource and is not an endorsement of any individual provider.


This list is not fully comprehensive, as there are some doulas I do not know, or who have specifically asked to be removed from the directory -if you are an independent doula (no agency listings) and would like to be added, please email me at shellyvarelli@gmail.com.

 

I hope this list is helpful in your search for the right Doula for you!

I encourage you to look at any FB, IG, or website pages offered to see who is actively engaged in their business, ask about their experiences, and find someone who aligns with your values and preferences.
