Think of me as your front porch guide to all things local, supportive, and actually helpful on your birth and motherhood journey.

Why This Exists
Because no one should have to say “I wish I had known.”
This space was created to connect you with the care, community, and clarity you deserve — right here in Acadiana.
We believe that when women are informed, supported, and surrounded by the right people, everything changes — not just birth outcomes, but how you feel moving through one of the most transformative seasons of your life.
As local birth workers, we hear it all the time:
“I wish someone would’ve told me…”
That you had options.
That you could ask for more.
That help was here.
Well — now it is.
Once you’re tapped into this birth community, you’ll realize we know one another, we refer to one another, and we want you to feel seen, safe, and empowered — every step of the way.
Our bigger vision?
To raise the standard of care in Acadiana by working together — as providers, advocates, and collaborators — to make birth and postpartum better for you.
Because you deserve nothing less.
The Birth Acadiana Coalition
Raising the standard of care — together.
This isn’t just a website. It’s part of a bigger vision: a collaborative, connected birth community that shares information, uplifts one another’s work, and stays focused on one thing — better outcomes and experiences for moms, babies, and families in South Louisiana.
The Birth Acadiana Coalition brings together local birth workers — doulas, midwives, chiropractors, lactation professionals, therapists, educators, and more — for quarterly meetings, resource-sharing, and real conversations around how we can do better, together.
