Yes, but we strongly recommend you use a picture of your face! Professional pages with personal touches will get more clicks!
I am a licensed LMT / IBCLC etc.; can I still be listed in the directory?
Yes, licensed non-birth professionals aligned with the sovereign birth movement are welcome in the directory. The directory is NOT meant for medical midwives, nurses, or obstetricians.
I am located in a country that doesn’t seem to be on here, can I join the directory?
Please do! This is a worldwide directory and we want women in every country to be able to find the holistic support they are seeking.
Can I change my photo / my bio / my links once I make my profile?
Yes. The editing of your profile is welcome. Don’t let waiting on that new headshot hold you up from making a profile today.
I don’t have a website yet! Is that ok?
Of course! Just offer what you have, wherever you’re at!
I submitted my information but I don’t see my profile listed yet; is something wrong?
Profiles take up to 48 hours to be processed. Please allow that processing time before reaching out with concerns.
I’m new to birth work, should I list myself in the directory or wait until I’m more experienced?
The way to become more experienced is to get out there and do it! Always be transparent about your level of experience; plenty of mothers are comfortable with new birth-workers.
Can I be listed in multiple categories?
Yes! Select all that apply to you; if you offer something but don’t see a category fits into, please contact us.
Can I add or remove a category from my profile?
Yes, you may edit the categories of service you offer at your own discretion.
Can I send a message to a member?
Professionals cannot send a message to a member unless she sends you a direct message first. You can send messages to other professionals.
How will I be notified when a member contacts me?
In addition to receiving a notification within the directory, an email will also be sent to the email address connected to your profile.
