FORMATPaperback CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

Women of colour are at far more risk of serious complications during pregnancy and childbirth through factors relating to racism, sexism, income inequality, and a lack of access to resources. This invaluable guide equips birth workers with the training and knowledge to provide holistic, person-centred care for their clients of all backgrounds. You'll learn how to serve the specific needs of your clients, how to advocate for them as they navigate the challenges many black and brown women face, and how to understand your client's pain points whilst also nourishing yourself and maintaining a good business structure. Your emotional and spiritual wellbeing as a birth worker is of vital importance and this guide will nourish you in your training just as you learn how to support and advocate for others. It will provide several options on business structures so you may cater to clients from all backgrounds and also includes pre- and post-birth grounding techniques for you, your clients, and their families.
