It is important to me to assist in bridging the gap in maternity care by providing a personalized care plan to help educate, empower and support our members.
Tanesha
Philadelphia, PA
I am a mommy of two beautiful boys that are 11! While my big boy is sweet as pie, my little baby gives me a run for my money. When I am not chasing my little ones, or laughing with my eldest, I love a good meal and to binge watch shows!
Statistically, women of color are less likely to receive the care that they need and are often left feeling unheard. I hope to be the person pregnant people can come to when they have questions, do not feel heard, or need a listening ear.
