Oh yeah... we are so excited to bring these midwives together in this group to share with the community. Currently, our midwives are primarily homebirth midwives attending births as qualified attendants in the peaceful setting of your home. Many of our midwives offer other services such as Montrice or Doula work both at home and in hospital settings. To help better clairfy the different types of midwives and different levels of certification and training, we came up with 3 classifications of midwives for the purposes of this group.

1. Certified Midwives: A certified midwife has active certification as a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) or Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM). 
2. Student Midwives: These midwives have been apprenticing a Certified Midwife for many years and are actively pursuing a certification (CNM, CPM).  These midwives are under supervision when attending births as primary midwife (supervision is with Certified Midwife).  A letter from the Supervising Certified Midwife must be submitted providing proof of supervision and active pursuit of certification.
3. Apprenticing Midwives: These midwives may be apprenticing with a Certified Midwife and not necessarily actively pursuing certification (CNM, CPM) but does not act as a primary midwife with or without supervision from a Certified Midwife.

All of our Midwives agree to the following:

• Agree to and adhere to MANA standards & qualifications, MANA Core Competencies, MANA Statement on Values & Ethics (www.mana.org - Midwives Alliance of North America )
• Agree to and adhere to Midwifery Model of Care (www.midwivesmodelofcare.org)
• To be listed and acting as a Certified Midwife must be in current/active status with the correlating organizations (NARM, AMCB) and willing to undergo Peer Reviews and other measures for Accountability
• Natural Lullabies Birth Professionals Standard of Care
