Nurses and Doulas Partnering Together to Make Birth Better

Goodness, it's been WAY too long since I've updated this blog.  It was a very busy fall and winter (in fact, just this past week I had three births!!), but now the dust is beginning to clear and I had something to fun to share.  

 I had the privilege of helping to facilitate an Evidence Based Birth class with my friend and doula partner, Julie Fors, of Journey Forward Birth and Parenting.  The class was held at Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital in Barrington, IL where a group of labor and delivery nurses and several area doulas partnered together to learn more about how we can make birth better for the moms we serve. I am so grateful for these ladies (and all the ones not pictured from the area hospitals I serve!).  They work tirelessly for the families that walk through their doors day in and day out. 

A wonderful time of learning was had by all.  You can view the full story and photos here.
