Thanks for the recommendation, Tammy Leeper! I'm a licensed midwife based in Long Beach. I serve an hours radius around Long Beach (which covers much of OC) and offer home birth services. I definitely definitely support clients looking to have VBACs and HBACs. You can learn more about my practice at www.taprootmidwifery.com. I am happy to offer free consults to anyone considering my services.
