Ingrid believes that all birthing people have a right to access safe and respectful maternity care where they are the decision maker in all aspect of their care. Ingrid understands that birthing people who have experienced disadvantage and oppression may need additional services to achieve equity in their care and says, "I walk beside these birthing people."

Monika feels being invited into someone’s birth space is an honour and a privelidge and is grateful to be entrusted to be a part of that journey. Monika says "Birth matters...we always remember the way we were made to feel. I learnt about Birthforhumankind early in my doula training, I felt the philosophy so deeply aligned with my own values and I knew I wanted to be a part of it."
