About Us
The Birth Buddy was created to make it easier for parents, caregivers, and birth workers to find supportive, community-based services. We believe access to care starts with access to information.
Our platform is a centralized directory of birth and postpartum resources. This is a tool for you — to help you, your loved one or patients navigate the perinatal journey and find resources that align with your needs and values. By bridging gaps in information and services, The Birth Buddy empowers women, families, and healthcare providers with tools to make informed decisions.
The Birth Buddy is an initiative of Births Count – a compassionate and innovative healthcare organization dedicated to supporting the well-being of women and children in the United States. Our goal is to ensure that no family feels alone during the critical stages of pregnancy, childbirth, and early childhood care.
Our Mission
At Births Count, our mission is to improve the health and well-being of women, birthing people, and children by expanding access to equitable, community-centered care, and by supporting the systems and providers who serve them. We are committed to advancing health equity, empowering families, and strengthening maternal health outcomes through data, innovation, and collaboration.
