Midwife - Part Time or Full Time

We’re long overdue for a new maternity care experience. Here at Oula we believe every pregnant individual deserves a safe environment and supportive multi-disciplinary team that listens, empathizes, and tailors care to meet individual needs.

We are looking for our first Midwife to join our brand new tech-enabled collaborative maternity care practice. We’re searching for an individual who is thoughtful and passionate about delivering patient-centric care and is excited to join a dynamic and innovative team.

In addition to helping design and shape Oula's clinical model, you will also be responsible for delivering full-spectrum perinatal care. This is the perfect opportunity for a CNM/CM that is excited to expand their skillset and help define and build a new best-in-class maternity care experience.

About Oula:

Oula Health is redesigning maternity care from the ground up. We support women and families by using a multidimensional care team to respond to their multidimensional needs -- these honor the clinical, mental and social domains that influence health across the entire perinatal period. Through clinics, a remote care platform, and proprietary technology, Oula provides a fundamentally different care experience that extends from our office into homes. Oula is launching its first tech-enabled, collaborative care practice in New York City.

Key Responsibilities:

-Provides clinical care within the scope of full service nurse midwifery practice

-Supports clients across the perinatal period in a variety of settings: in the office, virtually (i.e., over video, text, etc.), and at the hospital and/or birth center during labor and birth.

-Collaborates with other team members (e.g., obstetricians, doulas, coordinators, therapists, etc.) to provide whole-person care

-Communicates effectively with patients during and in between appointments to ensure questions are answered and concerns are addressed by leveraging Oula’s proprietary technology,

-Works collaboratively with Oula’s product & engineering team to give feedback on technology to create a more personalized, inclusive, and consistent approach to care

-Works with colleagues and advisory boards to drive closer partnerships with local individuals and organizations that can enhance our clients' support systems.

-We envision this individual starting part-time (1-1.5 days in the office) but expanding to a full-time capacity soon thereafter (2.5-3 days in the office, and 1:5 rotating call).

You are the perfect candidate if you:

-Are passionate about improving maternity care through a combination of clinical care, technology, patient empowerment and education

-Are enthusiastic about collaborative care models leveraging diverse teams with a wide variety of skill-sets

-Exude empathy and compassion for patients and team members and can rally the troops to provide exceptional patient experience

-Uphold the core principles of reproductive justice to support principles of body autonomy, self determination and cultural respect.

Desired Experience & Qualifications:

-Must have a LM licensure in the state of New York and certification by the AMCB as a Certified Nurse-midwife or Certified Midwife.

-Experience caring for diverse communities with a wide variety of needs

-Great professional reviews and reputation for providing exceptional patient care valued by your clients and colleagues.
