It’s why we come here. Gail Tully started Spinning Babies®by asking a question. Could birth be easier? Seeking the answers led to a paradigm shift in birth practices. Today this physiological approach is known for improved birth outcomes. 

As Gail’s teaching and reach grew, so did the impact and demand. Soon, a team of trainers—birth professionals who were trained to teach the techniques began teaching birthworkers. Now, Spinning Babies^® Approved Trainers hold workshops all over the world. They are a diverse group of birth workers, who all bring their own touch.

There is magic that happens during a Spinning Babies^® Workshop. One of the most unique elements of a Spinning Babies^® workshop is the community that is created within the experience. Nurses, doulas, midwives, nurse midwives, and sometimes doctors are all in the same room sharing values and optimism for physiological birth. Birth professionals who seek the same goal—to help and support pregnant parents. 

The power of building community within a Spinning Babies® workshop is this impact on hospital practice when these birth professionals go back to work with the skills to support physiological birth. They become confident in their abilities and can encourage change within their own birth community. Spinning Babies® becomes a web of connection for shifting the birth paradigm across the world. 

There is a ripple effect, a network of birth professionals who share information and connect with each other, sharing resources and encouragement. For all those who take a workshop with Spinning Babies®, they are invited to be a part of our community share site, where birth professionals share resources and encouragement.

Community is an integral outcome of Spinning Babies^® approach. What started with a curiousity to be more helpful has now become a global web of community and connection.
