Angelika Nugent works with both mothers who choose to
give birth at home, and those who give birth at a hospital; recognizing
that a doctor or hospital- affiliated midwife can only offer medical
support, and then only in small times slots.
She strives to provide both the medical and emotional support necessary
for a wonderful and holistic childbirth experience. During each of her
many hour-long check ups, before and after the birth, she offers a range
of advise on nutrition, exercise, relaxation, lactation and early parenting.
She hopes to custom tailor care for each individual woman, child and
family. She is able to provide care to women who are suffering from
trauma or other special circumstances, and performs or prescribes medical
testing appropriate to the pregnancy and the mother.
Angelika provides ample time for questions in each visit, and is available
24 hours a day by cell phone.
Her services include:
• From week 6 to week 28, an hour long visit every three weeks
• From week 28 to week 35 an hour long visit every two weeks
• From week 35 until birth an hour long visit every week
• Labor and delivery
• Daily post partum visits to the mothers home for the first week
additional visits at two, four and six weeks.
