Nashville Birth Mavens

What is a Birth Maven?

Merriam-Webster defines the word maven as, "one who is experienced or knowledgeable." It comes from a Yiddish root word meaning "one you turn to."

So a "Birth Maven" is someone you turn to who has experience and knowledge about all things related to pregnancy and birth.
