Leah Marinelli received her Nursing Degree at Rockland Community College, her B.S. in Women’s Health at SUNY Empire State College, and her certificate degree in Nurse-Midwifery from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

Leah has more than 23 years combined experience in home birth as a home birth midwife, assistant home birth midwife, childbirth educator and labor support doula. She brings a wealth of home birth expertise together with clinical hospital training, using both alternative and conventional healing arts in caring for women throughout the life cycle. Leah has been blessed to be the proud mother of six children, four born at home and two at birth centers.

After being inspired by her own homebirth in 1983 Leah began training in homebirth as an assistant midwife in New York, New Jersey, and later Israel.  Now as a Certified Nurse Midwife Leah has dedicated her life to provide safe, responsible, and loving compassionate homebirth to women, just as was provided to her in her 6 births.
