Welcome
Hello, tribe. I wanted to create a place of fellowship for Christians working in women's health and infant care. Many of us feel God called us to this path. It does us well to connect with others working in these fields and walking with God in the journey. This is a place where we birth-workers and women's health professionals of faith can come together and nurture each other, grow one another personally and professionally, and find fellowship. I'd also like this to be a place of sharing wisdom with one another so we can learn and better care for the families we serve. Join the Facebook group and chat on the Facebook page.
Future plans for Christian Birth and Breastfeeding Professionals
In the future, I'd like to grow this into a professional association. I envision The Christian Birth and Breastfeeding Professionals Association to be a place of fellowship, an organization to join out of united faith and philosophies, and a logo you can add to your website + social media if you'd like to. I envision this association having yearly gatherings for casual fellowship and also a yearly conference. Those are my big dreams for this, but for now we're in the seedling stage. Come grow with us.
After I finish my book series on women's health, I plan to create an academy offering training programs for doulas, educators, lactation specialists, and other types of women's health professionals.
