Third Annual

BIRTH FEST

"BIRTHFEST! What a blast! Singers, story tellers, bands, balloons, healthy snacks, gift bags, contests, stickers, local parents, local businesses. A unbelievably big affair, a local party in gym D with many of the recognizable faces of the Commercial Drive community who passionately care about families . After spending the day there I really got a sense of what the organizers of Birth Fest (the Vancouver Birth Lounge team) are creating, A GROWING, CARING COMMUNITY ! No wonder so many parents on the drive are pregnant, their community totally supports them - what a wonderful thing."

We’ve all heard that “it takes a village to raise a child,” but how many of us know what our village really has to offer? Vancouver’s families are invited to discover their village with the birth professionals of Birth Lounge.
