Looking for a midwife to have a homebirth in the NY Southern Tier

[LavenderRose]

Just recently found out  I am pregnant again and I would love to have a homebirth this time but haven't found any homebirth midwives near Elmira, NY. Can anyone help me with this?

it doesnt really cover as far south as Elmira - but i would start with them  - also maybe look in the Ithaca area - is  that about two hours away?  Sometimes that is your best option!  The Southern Tier is a beautiful area - i hope you find someone!

Thanks! Ithaca is about an hour from us. :)

Hi! I'm in Binghamton, NY-- I'm a birth photographer  but know a really great doula... her fb page is Newborn Naturally and she's really great! She just had her baby on leap day (Yes, I did photograph it!) and I think she's beginning work again. Please look her up and let her know I sent you. I'm shooting a birth at the Arnot Ogden Hospital (right?) later this month. If you think you might be interested in birth photography, you can look at my site  www.afterglowexposures.zenfolio.com and under Birth you can see her gallery and more info on my services as well. hope it works out for you
