Why Choose Birth it Forward?

At Birth it Forward, we believe in evidence-based care and amplifying your voice in your birth space. We support our doulas with continuing education and a team of other doulas backing them up to ensure they are supported while they support you. Our doulas are provided with training on advocacy, trauma-informed care, and much more. You can learn more about each of the doulas on our team in our birth doula and postpartum doula directories.

Birth it Foward believes every family has the right to the highest level of care and support. With your purchase of our birth and postpartum packages, you are helping us to provide the same support that you receive to others that otherwise would not be able to purchase doula services. Your purchase enables families of abuse, teen parents, and low-income families to get support, advocacy, and care.
