Tidewater Board Members:

Jennifer Green - Director

With the birth of my first son at home, I became empowered with my body's ability to create a new life. I used my background in education to pass on the knowledge to women in Tidewater their innate ability to give birth. Teaching Bradley Method classes and creating my own childbirth education curriculum, Empowering Birth Classes for the past 8 years and attending over 20 births has allowed me to experience the miracle of birth again and again. Two more sons later I am still enamored with birth and all its wonder. I am currently a student midwife with Seven Cities Midwifery Services and looking forward to helping women find the inner strength and power to birth in their own way.

Kathy Hubbard 

I first came to birth after my son Zachary was born. I looked up at my husband, minutes after he arrived, and said, "Let's do it again!" I have been a childbirth educator since 1999 and have used my classes as an outlet for my beliefs regarding birth as a normal, healthy part of life. I hope that by being involved with Birth Matters I can help women in Tidewater reframe their belief systems to embrace the power of birth, and realize it can be a beautiful experience with little fear, and lots of love.
