Choosing a Supportive Care Provider in Cincinnati or N. Kentucky Choosing a supportive care provider is one of the most important choices you will make in your pregnancy. In my 6 years of doula experience, choosing a supportive care provider has made much bigger an impact on experience than where a family gives birth.

 Care Provider RECOMMENDATIONSThe care providers I've listed here have a reputation of being incredibly respectful of birth and a patient’s right to informed consent. These providers also either work solo or with a very small group. I won't list or recommend a care provider that is within a huge practice where Dr. x may be great, but Dr. Y is always condescending and rude. If you don't see your care provider on this list, don't be alarmed. I'm only one doula and I've only attended 250ish births. There are soo many more care providers than I've had the opportunity to work with. It is important to choose someone you are comfortable with.
