Chloe Pyle
- Office Assistant
- "Jackie of all trades"
Chloe is first and foremost Michelle's daughter in law.
She does all of our print work including making all of the baby tee shirts (they are ssooo cute!) Our office runs smoothly because Chloe is in the background making sure we have the papers we need. Chloe is studying to become a dental assistant and wants to specialize in dental surgery. Although we are sorry that she does not plan on staying with midwifery, we are proud of her and grateful for the attention she gives her job here.
Lisa is an RN at a local hospital who used to attend births out of hospital in another state, and is actually very qualified as a midwife, although she has not gone through licensing here in FL (she is sticking with her shift work at the hospital!). We are thankful that she puts in some extra shifts here at the Center, and she is a friendly face for our patients if they do have to go over to labor & delivery at the local hospital.
