If you happen to be in a place where you are able to give, even a little bit, the Community Doula Program needs our help.

They provide support to so many members of our community, both pregnant clients and the doulas who support them. 

One amazing thing they have always done is paid their doulas whether or not insurance has paid them yet, and this means needing to have some reserve on hand. They also work to help doulas get credentialed with Medicaid. They have on call Labor support for moms who didn't have a doula yet but need one.

This is their donation page.

Please share!

All families deserve doula care that is matched specifically to their needs. During a pandemic, this support is needed more than ever.

During pregnancy, ensuring adequate intake of vitamin B9—commonly known as folate—is essential for your baby’s healthy development, especially during preconception and the first trimester. But not all forms of this vital nutrient are created equal. It’s critical to distinguish between folate...

Having your older children at your birth can be a special experience for them, but I do believe it takes a little preparation! As a mom, this is what I've done to prepare my kids for home and hospital births.

▫️ Be open about how a baby is born and use anatomical terms.

▫️ Watch appropriate YouTube vlogs with birth experiences you're hoping for.

▫️ Share about things that could happen and explain how they will be dealt with (this is a great time for questions).

▫️ Let your kids tag along to appointments.

▫️ Allow for open dialog for questions.

▫️ Have a designated helper (grandparent, friend, doula) for siblings.

I know this isn't something everyone will do, but it has always been a great experience for my children and several others I've talked with about it. I want to know, did your older children to attend the birth of their sibling or would you let your children attend their siblings birth?

Welcome baby Oliver!

He is the fourth baby for Elli and Brandon and was born at the birth center on September 1st.

He weighed in at 9lb, 8oz.

Elli transferred into our care in the last month of pregnancy after talking with her doula about what she wanted out of her care (thanks Heidi!) and we were so glad to have the chance to get to know her beautiful family.

Birth attended by Liz, Hannah, and Doula Heidi.

Welcome baby Elena!

She is the third kiddo for Alicia and Frank, and was born at the birth center on September 2nd.

She weighed in at 7lb, 11oz.

This was the third birth we've gotten to do for their family, and we were all so happy to get to be asked to serve Alicia again.

Birth attended by Julia, Liz, and Bailey, with Julia's daughter Reagan in the waiting room, since we all rushed there when it sounded like Alicia was already in transition and on her way in.

When Alicia found out she was playing out there (after the very quick birth), she invited Reagan in to meet baby Elena) ❤️
