Cheryl Bartone, MS, HCHI, CLD Cheryl brings a unique element to the birthing world with her passion for health-sciences and her love of natural solutions. She graduated from University of Cincinnati College of Medicine with a Master’s degree in Epidemiology and has worked for The Christ Hospital in a research setting. The birth of Cheryl’s two children had such a positive impact on her that she decided to train with CAPPA to become a labor doula. She wants nothing more than to support women so they, too, can have the births of their dreams. Since hypnosis was the tool that she used to have her own joyful births she completed her training with Hypnobabies to become a certified Childbirth Hypnosis Instructor. When she’s not working on statistics or supporting a mother in birth, you can find Cheryl alongside her chef husband helping him with a catering event. You may even find her playing video games with her children, walking her dogs, or digging in the garden.

Hi everyone! I’m the oldest of three so reminding mothers to take time for themselves and helping with children is very natural for me. Doula-ing (whether I knew what it was or not) has always been a theme in my life, and is something that has become very dear to me in the past few years. I’m a firm believer that knowledge is power, and with birth as no exception to that my main focus is always providing evidence based, informative care.

Hi! I have been a doula and childbirth educator for 17 amazing years! I'm a CAPPA certified labor doula and faculty doula trainer; certified childbirth educator, and certified midwife assistant. I'm also waterbirth credentialed, CPR and NRP certified. I have professional memberships with CAPPA, Birth Arts International, DONA, and the Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health (APPPAH). I am grateful to have served over 1000 families in my tenure as a doula and childbirth educator since 2006. I've held board positions with the Cincinnati Area Doula Society, the Buckeye Birth Coalition, International Cesarean Awareness Network, and the Dayton Area Labor Support but my real passion lies in working with new families and being an integral part of their birth care team.

Early parenthood requires decision after decision for you and your family. When we work together, I support YOUR choices, but I am alongside you to provide evidence-based information and practical guidance as you navigate the grey (and fuchsia and chartreuse). Inclusive, compassionate care is always my goal; the way our identities intersect with our role as a parent are front of mind as I work with clients. Anti-racist and LGBTQ-affirming service is of the utmost importance to me. I am fueled by deep connection to community, my family, adventure + travel, and caffeine. I am dreaming up a connected, visible network of Cincinnati postpartum resources: our local families need and deserve this.
