About Blossom Birth & Family

Blossom is an independent community-based 501 (c)3  non-profit organization connecting new and expectant families to services, resources and support for a healthy, informed and confident pregnancy and parenting journey. Since 1999, Bay Area families have chosen Blossom as their trusted resource as they navigate the new world of pregnancy, birth and early parenting.

From the moment women find out they are pregnant to learning about their choices for childbirth and how to care for a newborn...in the quiet space of our yoga studio, to the boisterous fun of our fairs, Blossom is with women and their families, every step of the way.

If you are considering or have begun your pregnancy and parenting journey, we invite you to explore our offerings. Our team of knowledgeable and friendly staff, instructors and volunteers will be happy to answer questions, provide access to resources, and, when needed, a comfortable couch on which to rest. 

At Blossom you can expect: 

• To receive evidence based, unbiased information
• Support so that you can make the best decision for you and your family
• A safe place where all ideas are validated, all “styles” welcomed, and all kinds of family structures cherished.  ​

"I enthusiastically recommend Blossom to all of my pregnant patients. In my opinion, it is the best center in the Bay Area for support, classes and information related to pregnancy and becoming a mother. Blossom offers a whole range of wonderful courses that are small, intimate and are lead by very dedicated instructors. The atmosphere here is very nurturing and allows women to connect with many others who are going through the same transition into parenthood. Many of my patients have made important long lasting friendships with others they have met here."

"What I like most about Blossom is the diversity of parenting experiences that find their way to attending classes, talks and social activities. I've made friends and had a great interaction with parents who are adoptive, surrogacy-based, fertility warriors, single moms by choice, lesbian partnered, young, older, grandparents, students, professionals, and more. Blossom really is a great space, created by genuine, caring people!"
