Our Vision

Our Mommie Village serves as a hub of resources and services that aid in healthy recovery and a smooth transition into motherhood. The sad reality of our healthcare system is that Black and Brown mothers and their babies die at a disproportionate rate than white moms and babies. Our Mommie Village is addressing these mostly preventable deaths by providing a more holistic approach to prenatal care and beyond. We create an environment where Moms can thrive through group support and one on one coaching and support. We strive to educate and empower mothers and families during what is most often the greatest transition and change in their lives!
