Birth Choices is a group within the Fort McMurray Doula Association. Please go to www.fortmcmurraydoulas.com for more information about what the FMDA is doing in Fort McMurray, Alberta.
Birth Choices is a vonlunteer based group. We are passionate about providing information to expectant families so that they may make educated, informed choices during their journey through pegnancy, labour and birth.
In the past we have hosted Community Baby Showers for expectant women (and their families & friends) as well as an Annual Baby/Toddler Garage Sale in the late winter.
Currently, Birth Choices offers FREE prenatal information sessions once per month.
The prenatal sessions are held at The Hub at 10020 Franklin Avenue (in downtown Fort McMurray) on the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 7:30 PM. All are welcome at our meetings; we encourage you to bring your spouse and/or anyone else that might be with you during the labour and birth of your baby.
Birth Choices also has a lending library of books and movies available at the monthly sessions.
