All parents should have a positive beginning as their baby is born, and a beautiful story to tell for the rest of their lives. I am passionate about the power of family life transitions, and so became a doula and childbirth educator to encourage, support, and equip parents in their new roles.

​I'm Tara Van Dyke, and my own parenting experience led to the launching of With U Birth & Parenting, a company focused on strengthening families and creating community support
