Group Facilitators:
Christy Muscato, Founder, Co-Owner, Birth and Postpartum Doula, Doula Trainer, CD/BDT(DONA), Educator, LCCE, SpBCPE, Active Certified Body Ready Method Pro
Christy is a lover of many things including music, books, art, her amazing kids and has sometimes been known to series binge on Netflix. She has lived in many states and many homes. This gives her an understanding of being away from family and close friends during life-changing events like the birth of your child. She has been honored to be invited into a variety of births and to provide support. Some have included VBACs, high-risk, single parent, twins, c-sections, even a vaginal breech delivery! She has supported many natural and medicated births as well as hospital and homebirths. After an “emergency” c-section for her 1st daughter, she knew there was more to birth. She looked and was amazed at what she found. Doulas, Lamaze, amazing networks of supportive women. Her tribe. Her second daughter was a beautiful VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) supported by her amazing doula.
Christy is a Certified Birth Doula with DONA® International (2006), a Lamaze® Certified Childbirth Educator (2006), an Approved Birth Doula Trainer with DONA International (2016), a Postpartum Doula and has trained with Postpartum Support International, a wonderful resource for families dealing with postpartum mood disorders.
