Doula in Ohio?

Blackrose1918 · May 2012

I noticed the "local" boards aren't very active, so I figured I'd post here. Does anyone know of a doula who works on a sliding scale near Akron, Ohio? I'd love to have a doula, just can't afford the full going rate. Thanks ladies

Go to the Mothering.com and they have their own forum. Go to the Find Your Tribe- there is an Indiana, Michigan, Ohio one and you will find someone. The Mothering site/magazine is geared towards more natural mamas. A lot of the time, midwives, doulas, etc. are on the message boards as well.

Where would I find that info? I'm a FTM and kinda clueless.
