Looking for a Midwife and Doula in OH/KY tri-state area!

Thread Starter 

I'm from Raceland, Kentucky (right next to the Ohio river) and the only midwives I can find are 45mins-2 hours away which would be too much traveling for appointments with a toddler. I'm approx 7 weeks pregnant, currently seeing an OBGYN, but I'm desperate to homebirth and I'm not sure I would feel comfortable without a midwife to assist. Also the midwife I like (Angelita Nixon) is just too far and I can't afford gas, time, and $4000 to go see her at this point in time. Also she isn't licensed in KY so I'd have to give birth across the river in Ohio in a hotel or something lol :/ But I'm desperate. Does anyone know any Midwives that are closer?! Also looking for a doula as well!
