Better Beginnings for Babies
A non-profit improving the care of mothers, babies and families with small children. It
all starts with the pregnancy, prenatal care and birth.
Birth is a pivotal event for women and their families with long term effects. The empowered transformation of women and men into mothers and fathers is vital! Mission statement
We believe that the birth of a child is a pivotal event for women and
for families. If we, as a society, can help in the transition from
woman and man, to: parent, mother and father, we can help prevent
some of the social, medical and emotional problems of the future. What is
needed is:
wanted and/or accepted pregnancies
prenatal care with respect (social,ethnic,emotional)
faith and trust that, for most women, pregnancy and birth are normal
gentle birth in a supportive environment focused on the woman and baby
midwifery for the masses, with proper back-up and support
a doula for every woman
support for breast-feeding
human milk for human babies
supportive home care for new mothers and fathers
mentors for positive early parenting (mothers teach mothering)
