OUR STORY
The Birth Center of Boulder is a collective initiative founded by 5 dedicated women with an intention to create a sustainable birth and wellness center for our community. The 5 of us all connected through the world of birth. Through much time together, conversation, melding of dreams, persistent work, focus, flexibility, similar work ethics and life philosophy we realized that our ideas could become real.
Recognizing that our people are the most important asset we have chosen to establish ourselves as a collective LLC.
The Collective Model Guiding Principles:
- voluntary and open membership
- democratic member control
- member economic participation
- autonomy and independence
- education, training and information
- cooperation among cooperatives
- & concern for community
Inspiration: The raw realness of birth and transformation inspires us. As does nature, art, music, connection, and a willingness to collectively create something of sustainable value and beauty.
Grateful: Each individual along our path has played a role in helping us get to where we are today and the creation of this possibility. Our families, friends, investors, mentors, heroes, and community members. We want to thank all of these important people with sincere gratitude and appreciation for believing in us, inspiring us, and helping us to make this dream a reality. Thank You. Thank You.
