Hi! My name is Jill and I am one of the Birth Care midwives. I am a wife and mother of six grown children, and I had the privilege of delivering my first grandson in October of 2004. My husband and I live in New Providence. I love working for Birth Care!

I have been involved in home birth since 1978. I trained as a childbirth educator and later trained as a midwife apprentice in Bellflower, California with Nial Eddinghousen, a well known homebirth doctor. I earned a four year degree in pre-med biology and a nursing degree in New York State.  I also earned my midwifery degree in New York State.

I have worked with Amish and English families for almost 30 years. And delivered a lot of babies in that time! I specialize in herbal and homeopathic treatments, and am learning more all the time.  At birth Care, I care for women with fertility issues, menopausal issues as well as normal physicals and prenatal care. I don’t do as many deliveries as Jane and Maribeth, but I often am asked to be at the delivery for women whom I have helped to get pregnant, and I help out when the other midwives are busy!

It is a wonderful privilege to be here working with these wonderful people. I hope to meet you soon!
