Anna’s Memorial
Sunday, March 16th: 2:00pm at Tuckers Grove Park, Area 5
Anna was a beloved midwife in Santa Barbara since the 1970s. She was our mentor, our partner, our midwife and our friend. She was an original member of SB Midwifery, and an essential part of the history of the Birth Center and of the stories of thousands of families in our town. We love her and she is missed deeply.
Please come and share stories and sweets to remember and celebrate Anna. Please RSVP if you plan to attend - annabmemorial@gmail.com
*In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Anna Bunting Midwifery Fund to support access to midwifery care.
About Santa Barbara Midwifery
Santa Barbara Midwifery is an independent midwifery practice that is the exclusive contracted provider of services for the non-profit Santa Barbara Birth Center.
Since 1978 SB Midwifery has had the privilege of working with people during one of the most transformational times in their life- the birth of their children. We see pregnancy and birth as a sacred event, and a time when someone can gain strength and confidence. We believe having a baby is a healthy normal event, and the process itself can contribute greatly to the personal growth of each person as well as their family and the entire community. It is our commitment to support and guide each person along this path.
We welcome people seeking our care who are any gender, color, class, religion, family constellation, nationality or sexual orientation.
We are ready to listen to you, learn about what you need, love you and support you all the way through!
