From Our Childbirth Educator, Abby Williams: Hi! I’m a local doula and childbirth educator here, in Cherry Hill. I have a passion for educating women about their incredible bodies and their ability to birth. Birth is such a unique experience and can be a transformative one. I was terrified about the idea of birth before I knew about it. Once I began learning about how pregnancy changes you and what happens when your baby is ready to be born, I was excited to give birth and no longer afraid. I believe educating before labor is empowering. I would love to help you prepare for your empowered birth!
