Houston Birthing Connection
Because Every Parent Deserves A Pathway To Stability
Empowering Families Through
Knowledge, Support, and Compassion.
At Houston Birthing Connection, we provide compassionate, holistic care that empowers young parents and families through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Our dedicated team is committed to creating a nurturing environment where every birth is respected, and every parent and family feels supported. Whether you're expecting, navigating birth, or adjusting to life with a newborn, we are here to provide the knowledge, guidance, and compassion you need to thrive.
About Us
At Housing Birth Connection, we are dedicated to creating a supportive, inclusive environment where families receive compassionate guidance throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
Founded in 2011, our mission has always been rooted in advocacy, education, and community care. We exist because families deserve to be seen, heard, and supported every step of the way.
Our Story
Houston Birthing Connection began with a simple belief: families deserve more support than they often receive. What started as a small local effort to help a handful of parents has grown into a trusted community resource serving families.
Over the years, we’ve expanded from basic birth education to offering full-spectrum support, including postpartum care, parent workshops, mentorship, and community outreach programs.
Our journey has been shaped by the families we serve—their strength, their experiences, and their stories continue to guide our mission every day.

After serving vulnerable families and seniors through her home care agency, she launched HBC to break generational cycles of poverty by empowering at-risk young parents to become self-sufficient, ready-to-work, and employable in today’s economy.
