BuffaloBirth Network and BirthNetwork National encourage you to seek providers who support your personal philosophies. We do not endorse or recommend providers, but lists those providers you may be interested in. Those who have endorsed the Mother-Friendly Childbirth Initiative (MFCI) and are paid BirthNetwork National members are listed at the top of each section. BuffaloBirth Network and BirthNetwork National do not guarantee the provider information contained in this guide and we do not check the validity or accuracy of credentials including, but not limited to, certifications, licenses or training of any listed provider. There are variations in the philosophies and practices of providers listed. It is the responsibility of each consumer to verify the credentials of providers and we encourage consumers to interview providers in order to find the care that is right for each individual and family.

If you are a doula, childbirth educator, lactation consultant, chiropractor, massage therapist, yoga instructor, photographer, etc, please consider becoming part of our Local Resources Guide. Listings in our online guide are free to everyone.

However, for just $50 a year you can become a Professional Member of BuffaloBirth Network. This will make your listing in the online resource guide a premier listing - placed at the top of the page, includes a short description (provided by you) of your services, and formatted in an eye-catching manner. All Professional Members are ALSO included in the print version of our Local Resources Guide, which will be available at libraries and offices throughout the community. Plus $25 of every Professional Membership stays right here with our local chapter, helping us to continue the work we are doing to make childbirth more mother-friendly throughout the Buffalo area.
