Midwives do a whole lot more than just catch babies. 👏

This National Midwifery Week, the Tampa Bay Birth Network is celebrating the incredible midwives who serve our community!

Midwifery care isn’t just a trend, it’s the gold standard for personalized, evidence-based maternity care. Whether you’re planning a home birth, a birth center experience, or a hospital delivery, having a midwife on your team means having a fierce advocate who truly listens.

Because let’s be honest: women deserve care that respects their choices, trusts their bodies, and doesn’t treat birth like a medical emergency waiting to happen.
To the midwives working long hours, offering unwavering support, and fiercely protecting the birth space: we see you, we appreciate you, and Tampa Bay is so lucky to have you. 🤍

👇 Tag your favorite Tampa Bay midwife in the comments so we can show them some love!

Meet Ashley 🤍

She's a holistic pelvic floor occupational therapist and the founder of Pelvic Fleur—bringing over 8 years of experience to her practice.

Here's the truth: pelvic floor therapy isn't just about treating symptoms. Ashley's approach goes deeper. She integrates fascia release, visceral manipulation, and trauma-informed yoga to create care that honors your whole body—physical, emotional, and mental health together.

Her certifications include Pregnancy and Postpartum Exercise Specialist, trauma-informed yoga training, manual lymph drainage, and visceral manipulation. But what really sets her apart is how she shows up: compassionate, holistic, and deeply committed to creating a safe space where you feel understood and supported.

Whether you need support during pregnancy, postpartum care, or pelvic floor therapy that meets you where you are, Ashley offers personalized sessions—in-person, virtually, or even home visits in the St. Pete area.

World Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week is coming up (first week of May), and we're not waiting to talk about what actually helps:

✓ Providers who screen for mental health at every postpartum visit, not just the 6-week checkup
✓ Support that shows up before crisis hits
✓ Normalizing that postpartum mood changes exist on a spectrum
✓ Connecting families to therapists who specialize in perinatal mental health
✓ Partners and support people who understand warning signs
✓ Communities that don't shame people for struggling

Postpartum depression affects 1 in 7 birthing people. Postpartum anxiety is even more common. These aren't character flaws or signs you're not cut out for this.

If you're struggling: You're not broken. You're not alone. And you deserve support that meets you where you are.

Tampa Bay families: We can connect you with perinatal mental health specialists, support groups, and providers who take this seriously. Drop a 🤍 if you need resources.

Here's the truth: finding the right support for your little one's speech, language, or feeding challenges can feel overwhelming.

Meet Samantha Elder, M.S., CCC-SLP, of The Little Years Therapy Co.—this week's Member Monday spotlight 🤍

Samantha is a nationally certified and state-licensed Speech-Language Pathologist serving families in the Greater Tampa Bay area. With specialized training from Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital and degrees from UCF and USF, she brings serious expertise wrapped in warmth.

What makes her practice different? She uses a parent-coaching model that empowers you to support your child's progress at home. Her play-based, neurodiversity-affirming approach meets families exactly where they are—whether that's mobile therapy in your home or office-based sessions.

Samantha founded The Little Years Therapy Co. in 2023 to build a practice that prioritizes both family connection and evidence-based care. And the families she serves? They're seeing real progress—kids going from occasional words to clear daily communication, from feeding struggles to confident mealtimes.

Want to learn more about Samantha and her concierge speech, language, and feeding therapy services? Visit our website to connect with her and explore how she can support your family's journey.
