Ame Solomon

I began attending births in 1994, and received doula training in 1995. I then trained as a midwife and became a Certified Professional Midwife in 1998. I offer a wealth of information and skill in my role as a doula. I am well versed in both medical procedures and alternative healing modalities, making me an effective, nonjudgmental counselor to women seeking to make maternal health decisions tailored to their personal understanding of wellness. Herbs, homeopathy, aromatherapy, and drug-free methods of pain relief are all part of my doula tool box. And I can refer you to professional massage therapists, acupuncturists, lactation consultants, and clinical herbalists and homeopaths, should you need more assistance than I can provide.

Are you trying for a Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC) or do you have other special needs? I’ve attended numerous VBACs and wholeheartedly support women with this objective.

I believe that a woman’s body has the inherent organic ability to birth without augmentation (though I am not opposed to medicinal pain relief on principle). In the process of assisting over a hundred birthing women, I’ve been able to help mothers through hard long labors, short intense labors, successful VBAC’s, water births, and through challenging emotional transitions. I feel that a well informed choice is the best choice. I will help educate you about your choices when creating a birth plan to fit your optimal birth vision.

I currently serve women as a doula throughout Central Vermont!
