Another who prefers a good OB and a hospital. When I worked in a pediatric ER, I saw far too many purple babies from at-home births with lay midwives or doulas attending the delivery. There was even one licensed nurse midwife who kept trying to give us mom's maternal history I had to escort out so we could save the baby's life.

I'm sure there's some good lay midwives and doulas out there. I just haven't met them.
