Birth Journeys is now into the loving hands of Vermont Doula Company. We wish them a wonderful journey supporting Vermont families! 🙏💚💛💚

🎉 We are thrilled to announce that Vermont Doula Company has aquired Birth Journeys! 🎉

Founded in 2001 by Amy and Phillanne Armstrong, Birth Journeys has been a trusted name in our community for over 20 years, offering essential prenatal education such as childbirth education, infant feeding, CPR courses, and more. Since 2012, this beloved company has grown under the loving guidance of Genevieve Henry, Jenna Thayer, and Rachel Stanton. While Amy, Phillanne, and Jenna have moved on to other projects, their vision and heart live on in the work that Birth Journeys continues to do.

Led most recently by the amazing Rachel Stanton and Genie Henry, Birth Journeys has made a lasting impact through its commitment to empowering expecting parents and collaborating with local providers. At Vermont Doula Company, we are deeply honored to carry forward this incredible legacy.

Our goal is to continue offering families the same quality education and support Birth Journeys has always been known for. With certified, experienced educators, our classes will remain up-to-date, evidence-based, and taught by professional educators who are specialists in birth and infant care. We are committed to providing families with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions and have empowered birth and parenting experiences.

We also embrace the values Birth Journeys has always stood for. Our team is dedicated to promoting justice and equality in every aspect of our work. We proudly donate a portion of our earnings to Birth Justice each month and offer our online classes free of charge to the BIPOC community.

We are so grateful to Rachel and Genie for entrusting us with their beloved company. Thank you for your incredible dedication and the love you’ve poured into this work over the years. We promise to nurture and grow Birth Journeys with the same passion, care, and commitment.
