Gathered Birth Gathered Birth nurtures & empowers women, families, & the community through holistic, evidence-based Only you know what is best for you.

Gathered Birth facilitates gathering together as mothers, parents, and a community, to care for and empower each other as we grow as parents. We offer support services and classes on childbirth, breastfeeding, and newborn care to help you gather the knowledge, tools, and confidence to approach your birth and parenthood with peace and joy. Guiding Principles:

-Whoever you are, whoever you love, you are welcome at Gathered Birth. Respect and acceptance, always.
-Pregnancy, birth, and parenthood are natural processes, even when interventions are involved. Becoming a parent is an awesome thing, no matter how it happens.
-There is no "right way" to give birth or parent. Gathered Birth supports your choices.
-The purpose of childbirth preparation is to empower women to feel confident and aware as they approach their birth. Birth can be unpredictable, but we can help you feel prepared and confident as your birth story unfolds.
-Mothers posses deep intuition and instinct. When we care for and empower women, they learn to trust themselves and tap into that intuition.
-Partners (be they significant others, family members, friends) are integral, and need support too.
-It truly does take a village. Community involvement is a necessary and exciting piece of providing care to mothers.

If our excitement fades before the kid is in school, maybe it’s time to stop claiming that we love babies.

Tell me you’re a mom in grad school without telling me you’re a mom in grad school… I realized (after class started) that the only paper I had to take notes on was this sweet drawing from my kiddo. It’s a little hard to read, but on the plus side, I’ll have a self-esteem boost every time I study 🥰.
And with that, I am officially starting my 3rd semester of public health school! Thanks for sticking around as I took a break from social media. I’m feeling re-energized and excited to be back!

So what’s the plan, then?

The plan to make accurate sexual education mandatory in every state.

The plan to increase access to contraception.

The plan to grant national paid parental leave so people can recover from their births without going broke.

The plan to provide mental health support for the people forced to continue with traumatizing pregnancies and births.

The plan to improve the healthcare worker shortage in order to take care of the very sick pregnant people who would have had a life-saving abortion, but now can’t.

Because without a plan to address to the deadly fallout that will occur, you are not allowed to claim that you are protecting life.
