Welcome to the West Valley Birth Collective
It started with some doulas building their resource list and seeing the need for networking and connection on “our side of town”…
Supporting Growing Families in West Valley of Phoenix, AZ.
As the West Valley continues to experience rapid growth, it's only natural for some families to feel overwhelmed or find resources to be scarce in this thriving community. It's important to acknowledge these challenges and ensure that every family can access the support they need during this period of expansion.
At West Valley Birth Collective, we understand that navigating the sea of resources available can be daunting, especially when they appear to be stretched thin.
Here are a few ways we strive to support growing families in our community:
We maintain an up-to-date and comprehensive resource directory that outlines a wide range of support services available in the West Valley. From prenatal care providers and childbirth classes to lactation consultants and postpartum support groups, our directory aims to connect families with the right resources to meet their unique needs. We regularly update this directory to reflect the growth and changes happening in our community and ensure that families have access to the most relevant information.

Education and Empowerment

We believe that knowledge is power, and we are committed to empowering families with the information and education they need to make informed decisions about their healthcare. Through workshops, expos and educational materials, we strive to demystify the complexities of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care. By offering evidence-based information, we aim to reduce anxiety and provide families with the tools they need to navigate their journey confidently.
Peer Support and Community Engagement

Feeling supported and connected is essential for all families, especially those who might feel isolated in a growing community. We foster a sense of belonging through various initiatives, including sharing local peer support groups and social gatherings. By creating a supportive community of individuals who share similar experiences, we hope to alleviate feelings of overwhelm and provide families with a safe space to express their concerns, share their triumphs, and seek advice from others who understand their challenges firsthand.
Collaboration with Local Organizations

Recognizing that we cannot address every need on our own, we actively collaborate with local organizations and community agencies to maximize the resources available to families in the West Valley. By partnering with healthcare providers, non-profit organizations, and other community leaders, we can expand our reach and ensure that families have access to a diversity of services and support. In this period of rapid growth, we remain committed to helping parents in the West Valley access the resources they need to care for themselves and their families!
