is to bring parents and birth workers together for community, education and joy, so that all stories and experiences can be revered. Birth is a rite of passage that should be honored and celebrated in the many ways that it unfolds, and our dream is that every parent feels autonomy and empowerment during this transition. You deserve an empowering birth.
Village Birth has a history of supporting new and expecting families throughout Los Angeles. Born as Two Doulas Birth in 2012, we became Village Birth when we opened a space in 2019. In 2022, we partnered up with Sparrow’s Nest to bring more services and support to our birthing community all under one roof.
As working doulas with our finger on the pulse of what’s happening in the Los Angeles birth world, we’ve always had a unique and privileged perspective to offer all of our students and clients. Over the years we’ve added new educators and expanded our network, our offerings, and our footprint, so opening a dedicated space for classes and gatherings has been very important. The opportunity to have a space for all people on their unique journeys into parenthood is something we are thrilled to bring to the community.
We are not meant to navigate this wild ride alone. It takes a village, and we are honored to welcome you into ours!
