Loving Arms Childbirth Services
Welcome
Welcome to Loving Arms Childbirth Services.
Janaki Costello, Molly Brannigan, Jessica Christen, Anna Mahony and Eleni Gekas-Osband provide education, foster community building for new families, help build confidence in the birthing person’s ability to birth their baby and give their partner skills to help them achieve the birth they want.
Through education we support the parents in understanding their amazing newborn and prepare them for the ups and downs of life as a new family.
We believe each person will birth in their own special way and that each birth is personal and should be empowering for them and their family. Molly is also an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (East Bay Lactation Associates at same location) who is committed to helping parents get off to a good start with breast/chestfeeding and to working in-depth to help solve breast/chestfeeding challenges.
All our classes are held in person for fully vaccinated/boosted folks only in our beautiful new office in Emeryville. We follow the Covid safely guidelines from the State of California and the CDC.
