Doulas Make An Impact On Birth Outcomes
Resources Given
No family should feel alone or unprepared in welcoming a new baby. The Mothership provides essential baby supplies—such as diapers, wipes, baby clothes, formula, and baby gear—free of charge to families in need. These resources are distributed through our Community Baby Showers and on an ongoing basis to support families during the early months of parenting.
Mothers Who Received Support
At The Mothership, we believe every mother deserves culturally rooted, compassionate care throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Our doulas are trained to provide emotional, physical, and informational support before, during, and after birth. By building a network of trusted, community-based birth workers, we help reduce birth disparities and restore traditional birth wisdom.
Parenting Classes
We offer free, culturally relevant parenting education for mothers, fathers, and caregivers at every stage of the journey. Our classes include childbirth preparation, postpartum wellness, infant care, breastfeeding support, and conscious parenting techniques. Through knowledge and community connection, we empower parents with the confidence and skills they need to raise healthy, resilient children.
Events, Gatherings, and Counciling
From film screenings and community brunches to healing circles and panel discussions, The Mothership hosts vibrant, informative events that center the voices and experiences of mothers and families.

The Mothership Center
4365 Reading Rd, Cincinnati, Ohio 45229
The Mothership Center is a nurturing space rooted in love, tradition, and justice—dedicated to uplifting women of color, their families, and birthworkers. Our mission is to provide culturally centered care through doula training, free parenting education, essential baby resources, and community events that foster healing, awareness, and empowerment. We are committed to restoring ancestral birth practices and building a strong, supportive village around every mother and child.
The Mothership Is A Community Hub
The Mothership is a homegrown institution rooted in the heart of the community, created by and for women of color. It serves as both a training ground and a sanctuary—where tradition meets advocacy, and where families are empowered with knowledge, care, and support. Through its educational programs, doula services, healing-centered events, and access to vital baby resources, The Mothership uplifts the whole village. The Mothership Center is more than a building—it’s a hub of connection, restoration, and possibility, where every woman is seen, every birth is honored, and every family is embraced.
When you educate a parent you lift up a family legacy.
Let’s be real—bringing a baby into the world changes everything. The joy is real, but so is the exhaustion, the overwhelm, and sometimes the silence that follows a hard birth experience. At The Mothership, we see you, and we created “A New Dawn” just for you.Location:
