You're right.
I don't believe that I remember any Americans on this show either.

Actually in the second season there was an American character. A woman's son comes to visit her from the U.S. with his American fiancee who was rude and condescending. Then in another season I can't remember which one an American applies to work at Nonnatus House but Phyllis refuses to consider hiring her. I would love to see an American character on this show. Maybe the writers could consider writing in an American tourist who ends up marrying an Eastender and needs the help of the midwives but since midwifery is unknown in the U.S. medical field in the 1960s the woman is unsure of having a midwife help her.
