“Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making parents - strong, competent, capable parents who trust themselves and know their inner strength.”
- Barbara Katz Rothman
Point Defiance Birth is located in Ruston Washington, in the shadow of Point Defiance Park. While pregnant, Tacoma native Ann von Moritz, CD(DONA),HCHD, CLC, would walk for miles through the trails finding solace in the trees and a quiet place to work through her hopes and fears for labor, birth, and early parenthood. Ann hopes to bring that same solace and piece of mind to each of her clients - giving them a safe space to talk about what is on their minds and explore all birth and parenting options with the guidance of evidence based knowledge, experience, and intuition.
