The idea for this foundation was born from the personal postpartum experience of the founder, Diane Schreiber and the idea that every mom needs a village.

Diane is a mother of three boys. With each child, the postpartum period grew harder. By the time her third son arrived, she was living in Texas — 2,000 miles away from family and running on empty. Her body was depleted. She was overwhelmed. She felt alone.

Diane became a postpartum doula so she could be that support for other women. And through that work, she realized the need was bigger than one person could meet. Not every mother can afford postpartum care. So she decided to find the funding, build the village, and bring support directly to the women who need it most.

Care Beyond Birth was built around the support that Diane herself needed.
