MD licensed CPM OR Phase 3 Student in Maryland
/MD licensed CPM OR Phase 3 student willing to stay on after graduation (student position unpaid until graduation)
Red House Holisitic Health and Home Birth Care is looking for a Maryland licensed Certified Professional Midwife OR a phase 3 student (with a hope to continue working after graduation!) to join our team. We are located in Hagerstown, MD and serve a 65 mile radius including West Virginia and Pennsylvania which are alegal/unlicensed states. The midwife must live no further than 25 minutes from Hagerstown, MD, so relocation may be needed.
We serve a fairly diverse group of clients, ranging from Plain/Mennonite and rural neighborhoods to urban or suburban locations. Inclusion and respect of all races, religions, backgrounds, gender identities, LGBTQ+ etc is a MUST here.
We hope to find the ideal midwife by September 2024 and begin a 2-3 month training period shortly after. Work will begin January 2025.
