Have you ever wondered if there's more to gift registries than meets the eye, especially for doulas navigating the world of maternal care?

If you’ve been trying to figure out whether baby registries truly empower moms or subtly influence their choices, then get out a pen and paper, this episode is for you!

Today I'm joined by Kaitlin from Be Her Village, who is sharing her insight and experience from building a gift registry for support to help families ask and shop for what will really serve them in birth and postpartum - way beyond the material things!

In this episode, we dive into the following:

  • Why baby gift registries as we know them are hurting more than they are helping…
  • What kinds of things moms really need in birth and beyond…
  • How doulas can support their clients in creating gift registries personalized to their needs...
  • … and a whole lot more!

If you're tired of feeling unsure about the impact of gift registries on expectant mothers, then you wanna listen up!
