Amazing Community

“Heather is an amazing healer and midwife. After I endured horrible experiences with other practitioners and was severely traumatized, she literally helped change my life. I am so grateful she is my midwife and I would wholeheartedly recommend her. She listens to you, is compassionate, and makes you feel seen and heard. I wish all doctors were as dedicated to their patients as she is.”

Birth Options

At One Love Midwifery, we believe that birth is a natural, transformative experience that should be guided by your preferences and needs. We offer comprehensive support for various birth settings to ensure you have access to the birth experience that feels right for you and your family.

Home Birth

Our experienced midwives provide complete care for families choosing to welcome their babies in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. We bring all necessary equipment and expertise to support a safe, intimate birth experience while respecting the sanctity of your personal space.

Hospital Birth with Midwifery Care

For families who prefer a hospital setting, our midwives provide continuous support within partnering hospitals in Suffolk County. We work alongside medical staff to advocate for your birth preferences while ensuring you have access to medical interventions if needed.

Birth Your Way:

We understand that each birth is unique, and our goal is to honor your vision while ensuring the safety of both you and your baby. Our midwives are skilled in supporting physiologic birth while also recognizing when medical consultation or transfer of care may be necessary. Let us help you discover the birth option that best aligns with your values, preferences, and healthcare needs.

Insurance and Billing

We want to make midwifery care accessible for everyone. One Love Midwifery is an Out of Network provider and can work with you to submit billing to your insurance company for reimbursement. Most insurance companies will reimburse you for some, if not all of your care. Sonograms, lab work and genetic testing are all covered on an in-network basis even if you work with a care provider out of network. 

One Love Midwifery uses Clear bill billing service for benefits verification, coordination of care, and to obtain insurance authorization..

“Beyond thankful for Heather & her team who journeyed with us during our pregnancy & home birth. As a nurse, I was looking for care beyond the structured office visits, protocols and checklists. When we met Heather, we immediately loved her and could feel she was doing exactly what God wanted her to do in this world. My husband and I felt so supported especially as this was our first birth and we had no clue what each day would bring and the decisions we needed to make along the way. Heathers knowledge, intuition & expertise provided peace and assurance the entire time, as well as lots of laughs, because she always has a witty comment ready to go! Our home birth was truly magical & our beautiful baby girl is a dream come true! Thank you Heather, Noelle & the rest of the team – we are so grateful for our One Love Family🤍”

“I am so so grateful for Heather, Noelle, and Jillian! I always feel at home anytime I enter the building for any of my appointments/checkups. They made my first birth feel perfectly comfortable and safe while I successfully delivered at home in my own bedroom. I had the best team of women to deliver my baby boy and wouldn’t change a thing moving forward with any future births. It was everything I wanted & more!!”

“Heather was recommended to us as a midwife after OB appts in a more clinical setting didn’t feel like the right fit. The prenatal appts with Heather were amazing from the start and she reassured us every step of the way. She takes the time to know her patients personally which made such a big difference. Our home birth was a dream come true and never once did I fear for myself or my baby. She is so confident and knowledgeable in her job it was so easy to put all of our trust in her and enjoy the process worry free. So blessed we found her and One Love!”

“I am forever grateful to Heather and her team for taking care of my family during my second pregnancy and my first home birth. Because Heather is so knowledgeable and confident, it was so easy to put all my trust in her. She tells you how it is and I love that about her. Any concern of mine was heard, understood, and met with confidence and reassurance. She helped all my home birth dreams come true that I was unable to achieve without her during my first pregnancy. Heather is by far the best. She went above and beyond to help coach me during my entire pregnancy and birth. She made me feel safe throughout my entire experience and helped bring my 10 lbs 13 oz baby into this world on my couch. Thank you a million times Heather and your team!! Can’t wait for next time!”
