Hello, and welcome to Little Miracles!
I am Rosemary Antunes, a wife of 32 years, homeschooling
mother of 8 children, and grandmother of 5!
As an OB Nurse for 25 years, I have attended hundreds of
births. As a Doula, I found an opportunity to fulfill a long-held dream: to
facilitate the birthing process in the hospital setting, in as natural a way as
possible, one woman at a time.
My experience as a Childbirth Educator includes not only the
traditional classroom setting, but also private, in-home classes, customized to
my clients' needs.
My choice of a blogspot, as opposed to a website, involves
my desire to help my clients and others interact with me and with each other
more easily.
Enjoy!
Here's my story:
I am the third child of seven children.
Graduated from St.Francis Hospital School of Nursing, Hartford, Connecticut
Valedictorian of the Class of 1980
Worked in ICU, Extended Care Facilities, Hospitals in Connecticut
Labor/Delivery/Newborn Nursery/Postpartum Nurse in hospitals, small and large in Connceticut
and Virginia.
I then was a School Nurse for 5 years at Christendom College and 2 years at All Saints in Manassas.
My husband and I have had eleven pregnancies, eight of whom survived to delivery and beyond,
currently aged 15 yrs. to 30 yrs.
