Birth &

Congratulations to you,
wherever you are in your pregnancy journey!

About

My name is Megan Chadwick, I am a birth and postpartum doula, a childbirth educator, a baby-holding-enthusiast, and a professional lullaby-serenader. I spent more than a decade supporting folks in myriad ways as a nanny, camp counselor, and after-school teacher.

My path to birth work was in no way linear, and arriving at the role of doula felt like stepping through a familiar door. Working with children taught me about adaptability, patience, empathy, every form of resilience, and the profound, unparalleled power of love. These are the qualities that define our humanity, and they are at the center of birth.

Learning about the complex and awe-inspiring mechanisms of physiological birth shifted everything I thought I knew about how we are born.

Birth is not a condition to be pathologized, nor is it a singular, medical event. In pregnancy, how you are treated, uplifted, listened to, trusted, and revered matters. Whether you feel informed of all of your options, autonomous in your decision making, and supported by your birth team matters. Postpartum begins in your labor room, and your birth experience directly affects your experience as a parent.

I am proud to be part of the Los Angeles birth community (my hometown!) as I continue forward as a student, teacher, facilitator, confidante, and advocate for those on their extraordinary journey to parenthood and beyond.
