Professional members
We are happy to provide listings for your community. The birth professionals listed have endorsed the Military Birth Resource Network & Postpartum Coalition’s Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice and where applicable they have a base license. These professionals endorse our goal to make a positive difference for pregnant women, new mothers, and their families through education, nurturing, and advocacy while fostering respect, knowledge, and integrity among professionals everywhere.
Find a birth or postpartum doula. There are a range of levels of experience for doulas from the newly trained doula to a doula with many years experience. There are a range of "well seasoned" to "brand new" doulas to fit your needs. Doulas listed on our website do not work for MBRNPC or the Local Chapter. We support a mother's right to choose the type of birth that is right for her - un-medicated, medicated, cesarean, VBAC, home birth, hospital birth, or birth center birth. Every woman will choose birth practices that she feels is right for her and regardless of those choices, our goal is to support her during this incredibly important time. There are variations in philosophies and practices in the professionals listed in our member guide. The doulas within our network are trained by a national or internationally recognized organization. It is the responsibility of each consumer to verify the credentials of each professional. MBRNPC encourages consumers to interview professionals to determine which professional is the right person for their needs. Some doulas may provide volunteer services while others will charge a fee for service, MBRNPC does not regulate a doulas' fee but the network does encourage doulas participating in this program to consider each families' situation and circumstances.

At Births With Dignity, I strive to support you in achieving your goals for the birth you believe you want to experience. Whether this is your first pregnancy or you have had pregnancies in the past, each pregnancy is different. You deserve the dignity, compassion, respect, and tools to make your birth an informed and comfortable experience. While your partner, mom, grandmother, other family members or friends may have ideas as to how you should approach your birth, the decisions that you feel are important for your own individual birth are ultimately your choice. You are the one doing the amazing job of birthing this baby into the world. I offer childbirth classes and materials to educate and prepare you for your birth experience. I work with pregnant teens, single parents, LGBTQ, all genders, ethnicities, and religions.
