• If you are unavailable when I go into labor, do you have a midwife back up? If so, can I meet her?
• Do you work with a doctor? Can I meet that doctor?
• What is your fee and do you accept any kind of insurance?
• At what point do you join me during my labor?
• Do you allow family/friends/doula to be present during my labor and birth?
• Do you encourage movement and positioning during labor?
• What is your transfer rate?
• What is your c-section rate?
