Touch of Osun Midwifery Services- Angelina Ruffin, CNM

Midwife Angelina is the Bomb !!! I am so blessed to have come across such a beautiful soul. She is so easy to talk to and very informative. This was my final journey and I wanted it to be the most memorable experience and she helped make my dream become a reality. I am a mom of 5 and you think you have it all together .You think you basically know it all and boy was I wrong .This was my 1st home birth and the possibilities she gave me were unimaginable. I was so used to going to a hospital and laying there until it was time to push hooked up to monitors and I.V drips nurses constantly checking sometimes feeling very intrusive. But having to deal with it because that's just how it works .Birthing in the privacy of your own home is nothing less then Phenomenal. You are in your natural elements you are able to Walk around Dance ,Lay, Sing, Drink, Eat, change positions .No Restrictions!!!!.
2020 was the year of the unknown. Our families were not allowed in the hospital you were Birthing in a mask .I would never have made it!!! Angelina kept me on my toes constantly throwing out suggestions, she would tell me "Think" what you want your birthing experience to be .What does it look like to you...What do you want to eat .... I was Like Whoa !!!! Coming from birthing at at hospital I had no clue .Something as simple as what do you want to eat ......You mean I don't have to eat hospital food ......Man this is nice...... Most importantly she is an Expert at including your Loved ones all hands were on deck in my home . Who's is recording!! Who's catching!!! Who's holding mommy up !! Who has the towels!! Who's cord cutting or for that matter are we even going that route cause she is also experienced in lotus birth and preparation. And her care doesn't stop there. Her postpartum follow up is amazing as welI .I can go on forever about my Touch of Osun experience. How do you Thank a Women who helped you birth the most important, Most loving, Most Precious.

She is every Women's Best friend, Sister, Aunt ,Provider Midwife Angelina is the G.O.A.T !!!

Angelina is the best hands down. I’m so glad that I was referred to her, she gave me a chance when a lot of people would have given up. She knows what she’s doing. I got my 2VBA2C with her and my first home birth. It was the hardest but most beautiful thing I ever done. I couldn’t have done it with out her and her patience. My home birth is something My husband and I will always remember. If you’re looking for a midwife to have a home birth with, I highly recommend Angelina.

Due to this pandemic my husband and I had to readjust our birth plans. After finding and interviewing Angelina we knew she would be an amazing fit. She understood our concerns, answered our many questions and though we hired her 6 weeks before the "due date" she was more than willing to help and guide us through a home water birth. Four weeks later during a regular visit Angelina found that I was dilated and few days later she delivered our baby girl. Angelina has helped us all these 3 1/2 weeks after birth answering questions, home visits and middle of the night calls. She is amazing!

Angelina is absolutely amazing! I came to Angelina for my third pregnancy because I wanted a different experience for my birth. My other two births were natural hospital births, which were good but there was something missing the peace of being at home. Throughout the whole process Angelina was very informative as every pregnancy is not created equal so she very patient and answered every question that I had. When it came down to labor time I was truly in control during the whole process she really listened to my cues and I had amazing fast delivery of my baby girl. The best part was my husband was able to catch the baby!!! Angelina and her assistant stayed made sure me and my baby were fine then we are able to rest thru the night with no interruptions!! Peaceful!! I can’t thank Angelina enough giving me the birth experience I always desired and if I decide to have more Angelina will definitely be the only midwife I will call because she made us feel supported, safe and most of all heard.

Angelina was the perfect choice for our home birth. This was my third child, and I felt safer and more cared for in her hands than I did with the midwifery that delivered my first two. She was so thorough during the prenatal appointments, and I laughed my way through each visit with her! Because of her attention to detail and never-ending patience with my 3,000 questions, I was perfectly prepared for the home birth. However, the best part of a birth with Angelina comes after the fact. Everything she does once the baby comes promotes bonding and restfulness...a complete 180 from my experiences at a hospital! The baby was cared for so quietly and gently as she took the necessary measurements, and she allowed us the space to nurse and rest and celebrate. Angelina made my husband and I feel safe, heard, and loved, and there’s no doubt that she pours her heart and soul into each family. I couldn’t have asked for a better midwife with whom to walk through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum!
