Our teachers are experienced and compassionate doulas, located in Colorado Springs, CO, who are passionate about empowering families. We understand that every woman's journey is their own, and we are here to support families every step of the way. Each doula offers unique experience, wisdom, and insight.

We offer a variety of services including childbirth education, birth doula support, postpartum support, lactation support and massage therapy. We believe that every woman deserves to feel empowered and maintain autonomy throughout birth and postpartum.

Empowered Life Birth Collective's Partnership with Crosslink Development International's Women's Health Project

ELBC is partnering with Crosslink Development International, a non-profit organization that works in the country of Kyrgyzstan with a focus on community development. CDI has a Women's Community Health Education project that focuses on health training for women with an emphasis on pregnancy health, nutrition, birth education, labor support, and other areas of general women's health. A portion of every childbirth education course student’s fees go towards supporting CDI’s Women’s Health Project.
