Birth Places:

- Licensed Midwife Alison Osborn, Grass Valley, CA
Doulas (hired support person for labor and postpartum care - services vary):
- Sierra Doulas
- Autumn Barr-Engstrom (Doula services only available to Bradley class participants)
Breastfeeding Support:
- Dr. Jack Newman’s website with helpful videos (great for 3 a.m. questions)
Pediatricians & Doctors:
- Dr. Susan Johnson, Colfax, CA (Susan has a wealth of articles on her website. She is one of the most holistic paediatricians around and specializes in developmental questions.)
