About the facilitators
Gem Tan
Gem's passion for doulaโing was rooted in my childhood. She was raised by strong women and gentle men. Mothers were, and are, the shoulders upon which she gratefully stands on. Her undergrad and post-grad research work with feminist, fertility and childbirth anthropologists, as well with birthing families themselves. She strives to deliver evidence-based and heart-centred information that can be of service to birthing couples.
Dewi Chen

She draws upon her training in Spinning Babies, Body Ready Method, Optimal Maternal Positioning, Evidence Based Birth and Prenatal Yoga to support birthing couples from #wombtoworld. She believes that the world can be made better if we do more to empower and support birthing couples. โฃ โฃ
