Who we are

Every issue of Birthing Magazine is information packed and is the result of the dedicated effort of our professional staff. With volunteer writers and photographers an original, educational and contemporary magazine is created. It is distributed to 10,000 families three times a year and viewed online around the world. We are grateful to all who contribute to the growing success of Birthing Magazine.
