California Department of Public Health Update

Dear Parents,

The safety and well-being of our community is our top priority. In recent days there has been a heightened level of concern that needs to be addressed surrounding the Coronavirus (COVID-19.) 

We will not have in person classes at this time.

The good news is that we will be using tele-health platforms to teach all of our classes and offer all services online via the Zoom video app.

Birth and postpartum doula care, lactation consults and private classes will still be given either in-home or online as current health mandates are updated. We are still accepting birth and postpartum doula clients, as we prioritize our commitment to educating, supporting and advocating for your family at this time of great need. 

We truly look forward to having you join us in our classes, on the same days and times as scheduled. We will explore the wonderful world of all things birth and baby together, virtually.

We are that much more committed to walking the path together, being here for you in any and all ways we can.

Remember to please take care of yourselves and most importantly remember to relax, talk to your baby growing inside of you and breathe.

Please contact us with your questions and concerns.

Sincerely, Los Angeles Birth Partners
