Angela Love Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) and Nurse Practitioner (APRN)
Angela Love has been attending births since 1999. She worked for 5 years as a RN in Labor & Delivery Units in Miami. While she became competent at handling many high-risk, complex births, Angie was also frustrated with many hospital policies, high cesarean rates, and obstetric violence. Dismayed with the lack of quality care, Angie decided to become a midwife. Angela attended the University of Miami to get her Master’s Degree as a Nurse-Practitioner with the specialty of Nurse-Midwife. Nurse-midwives catch babies in and out of hospitals all around the United States and the world,. They also write prescriptions, order ultrasounds, provide reproductive and primary care. Angela graduated from UM in 2004 and began working at a busy birthing center in Miami, Florida. She loved the freedom women had during birth to move spontaneously according to their intuition. She also loved supporting women in their quest for natural birth. She knows in her soul that birth is such a sacred time, and that this work is a profound calling.
In 2009, Angela moved to Vero Beach, Florida and started a homebirth practice. The home is truly where most women feel the most comfortable. In 2010, Angela realized her dream of becoming a mother. She has 2 amazing daughters, and had midwives for both her births. She studied hypnobirthing to keep herself calm during labor. Her 2nd daughter weighed 10 lbs-10 oz and needed only 2.5 hours in labor. Angela has extensive knowledge in breastfeeding support, both academically and by nursing her daughters for a combined 5 years.
