Raise money for Better Beginnings
A nonprofit in the heart of scenic Santa Rosa, Better Beginnings for Babies is dedicated to improving the care of mothers and babies.
Better Beginnings was formed after a group of Sonoma County activists recognized a need to bridge the gap between ideal wellness standards for families, and the resources available to them during this critical time of development.
Since its inception in 2008, Better Beginnings for Babies has assisted families by providing education, support, emergency doula services, support for breastfeeding and parenting.
We seek to create a culture supportive of those experiences, from a healthy pregnancy to a thriving breastfeeding relationship.
To actualize this culture, we must establish a world where:
Pregnancies are wanted and accepted;
Prenatal care is administered with social, ethnic, and emotional respect;
Faith and trust that, for most women, pregnancy and birth are normal;
Gentle birth occurs in a supportive environment focused on the woman and baby;
Midwifery is accessible for the masses, with proper backup and support;
Doula services are available for every woman who wants them;
Support is provided for breast-feeding;
Breastfeeding is encouraged and supported;
Supportive home care is widely available for new mothers and fathers;
Mothers mentor each other for positive early parenting results.
