Latinx Birthkeepers of DC/MD/VA

This resource page is dedicated to Latinx birthkeepers serving the DC/MD/VA area. As a community, we are dedicated to honoring our roots and incorporating aspects of our various cultures into the work we do. So many genius practices (like the use of rebozos) originated among indigenous people of Latin America. We recognize the growing need for culturally humble and non-judgmental birth workers, and we look forward to being there for you!
