It was fantastic to meet you, Lindsey…thank you so much for coming out and sharing your insights with me. We have got to get our littles together to play (not that they do a whole lot with other kids at 6 months, but they sure can be cute together)

This is great! I breastfeed almost anywhere and I’m sometimes a little concerned someone will ask me to leave. I think just having this card would give a woman more confidence. Great idea.

P.S. What time is the Doula meeting tomorrow? Are non-doulas allowed to attend? Thanks!

We have officially begun Doulas For All. You can find us on Facebook and on the web at DoulasForAll.org This will be the branch of our growing empire that will provide doula and doula-related financial support for expectant families! You can come out to the Zombie Lurch on Sat May 29th to help support our fundraising efforts! 33% of all funds raised will go directly to Doulas For All. 33% will benefit ICAN of Erie, and 33% will be donated to the Kanzius Cancer Foundation in honor of Sir Hubby’s mother and father who both lost their battles with cancer.

It can certainly evolve to include childbirth ed, Anne… i really feel like it is a vital part of the equation. I will be calling for a pow-wow soon to find out what some of the needs and concerns of Erie doula’s are so that we can get a broader picture of what is needed to begin. I will keep you updated

This is tremendous news! Let me know how I can help! And I definitely want to know more! Exclamation point!

Any chance this new fund could help parents afford independent childbirth & breastfeeding ed, too?

Would you (or someone you know and love) like to have a doula provide one-on-one support through pregnancy and the birthing experience? Are you worried that the cost may be out of your budget though? State of the Heart is raising funds to help families afford doula services here in Erie…Doulas For All is due to be “born” soon! Call 661-DOULAS-1 or write to Justine@DoulasForAll.org for details!
