Mothering Roots is a doula cooperative providing
back-up support to Moms-to-be and their partners
Our Mission
Mothering Roots ensures that a woman will have a doula to provide continuity of care and support throughout her pregnancy, birth, and into motherhood. The doulas who comprise Mothering Roots possess a richly diverse background, yet share a common vision to connect, empower and advocate for birthing women of all ages, backgrounds and cultures – regardless of one’s financial status. The Mothering Roots doulas are dedicated to providing non-judgmental, patient, supportive, and qualified care to women and their partners in hospitals, home, or birth centers with the birth methods of their choice. Mothering Roots doulas do not take the place of the partner/support person(s), but instead serve and support the mother and her partner/support person(s), enriching the birthing experience for all. Mothering Roots doulas act as liaisons and advocates for the mother, her partner and/or support people as we interact respectfully with the chosen practitioners to provide the best possible atmosphere for mother to birth in. Our goal is that a woman feels validated, honored and empowered no matter what may happen in the birth experience.
