Become a Provider Member

At The Birthing Circle, we have a large audience of local families that we can connect with our providers.

Part of our mission statement has always been to connect families to the wonderful providers throughout our service region. We provide a variety of connection opportunities completely free, including sharing provider events, allowing advertisements in our group, listings on our Resource List, and directing more than 3,000 families to that list.

Facilitating this valuable connection does cost us time and money, however, and some of these costs include website maintenance, time involved in monitoring the group, marketing ads and print materials, and administrative and overhead costs of expanding our audience.

To help us continue to increase our reach and improve the lives of our families, we have created the Provider Membership Program.

Membership Levels

Overview:

For the past three years, we have worked hard to build a large audience for our providers to connect to. One of our mission statements has always been to connect families to the wonderful providers that we have in our region.

One of the ways in which we can support our Providers is through our Provider Membership Program. Benefits include blog posts, specific emails to our entire email list, and the ability to post ads in our groups. The benefits are detailed below, and the Application Form is listed as well. We look forward to serving our providers on many more levels through this program and as we grow!
