All Birth Centers Please call me as you are readying for departure from your home. Attends home births? Any Home Birth I love attending home births! NOTE: a professional medical care provider must be contracted with you as I can only offer non-medical emotional and physical comfort measures during labor. I am not qualified to help you deliver your child, therefore will recommend a transfer to the nearest hospital should your home birth medical care provider not be available at the onset of active labor.

Client Testimonials for Jennifer Clancy
Julia T
Jennifer was a wonderful doula and we really benefited from her support. My husband and I were initially unsure whether or not we really needed a doula, and we were so glad we decided to have Jennifer on our team! She helped us prenatally develop a birth plan and vision, and was on call and online to give us information and guidance. When I began my long labor, she was with us for the duration - first on the phone and then at the hospital. I really appreciated her calm, knowledgeable presence, especially as my labor became more intense. She offered me great pain coping ideas and support -including massage, aromatherapy, heat, ice, positioning and more. After the birth, she supported me with help initiating breast-feeding. She visited us a few days after we got home to check in about our adjustment. She was a great support at this time of big life change and we really appreciated having her aboard. We highly recommend her as a doula!
