Birth Arts International
Birth Arts International was originally founded in 2000 by Demetria Clark as the Green Mountain Doula Guild. Since then the organization has expanded and grown into Birth Arts International. We have gone from a regional body to one that is working on a international level, offering extensive doula, postpartum doula and advanced doula trainings.
