Welcome to BEBO!

BEBO serves the Westchester, NY area, providing childbirth preparation classes, doula support, and newborn care classes in English and Spanish. All  fees are set on a sliding scale based on income - affordable for everyone!

Childbirth preparation classes cover pregnancy nutrition, choices in pregnancy and childbirth, anatomy and physiology of pregnancy/labor/birth/postpartum, labor support and pain relief options, interventions and complications, postpartum preparation, breastfeeding basics and newborn care.

Labor support doulas are trained to help mothers during all phases of labor and delivery with non-medical support, both physical and emotional. Women with doula support show a reduction in the duration of labor, less use of pain relief medications, lower rates of operative vaginal delivery, and a reduction in C-sections.

Newborn care classes cover breastfeeding, changes in the family dynamic, importance of skin-to-skin contact, bathing, soothing, babywearing (carrying babies in slings and wraps,) and caring for the post-partum mother.


All services are provided by trained professionals, including certified childbirth educators, DONA trained doulas, and accredited lactation specialists.
