History
​Blossom Birth Services was founded in 1999 by Anna Hurty and began in what used to be a dentist's office. Blossom has now had six homes in the last twenty years and landed at a marquee location at the Corner of California Ave and in Birch in Palo Alto. In addition to the original offerings we are beginning to expand Blossom’s reach beyond the confines or our community space. In 2019 we helped launch the Doula Volunteer Program at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. This hospital serves Santa Clara County has more than 3K births per year. In 2020 we launched online classes and groups. Community still remains a very important aspect to our staff, instructors and board, but with the increasing difficulty of getting around in the Bay Area, we have to meet parents where they are and provide this additional avenue to connect with Blossom and new parents like them. Blossom has seen many changes over the years and is supported by a wise Board of Directors, hard working Executive Directors, dedicated staff, donors and volunteers. Past ED's include: Anna Hurty, Elizabeth Green, Devi Borton, Dorothy Goor, Neri Life-Choma, Hillary Stamper, Pam Fox-Rollin, Shantell Herdon, Mora Oommen, and Dominique Vincent.

About Us - 20+ Years

Blossom is a non-profit community-based organization providing resources and support for a healthy, informed and confident pregnancy and parenting journey. Since 1999, Bay Area families have chosen Blossom as their trusted resource as they navigate the new world of pregnancy, birth and early parenting.

From the moment women find out they are pregnant to learning about their choices for childbirth and how to care for a newborn...in the quiet space of our yoga studio, to the boisterous fun of our fairs, Blossom is with women and their families, every step of the way.

If you are considering or have begun your pregnancy and parenting journey, we invite you to explore our offerings. Our team of knowledgeable and friendly staff, instructors and volunteers will be happy to answer questions, provide access to resources, and, when needed, a comfortable couch on which to rest.
