The work of Birth Roots is grounded in the philosophy that the way people are treated at birth (as a mother, as a newborn child and as a family unit) has lasting affects far beyond that one day.
Mothers who feel respected and self-determined in giving birth tend to view themselves as equipped to provide nurturing care as a parent.
Partners who are given tools, modeling and the opportunity for participating in the process of birth tend to be more engaged in their child's development.
Children born in an environment of confidence, awareness and intimacy tend to be more resilient and able to thrive.
