Robin Ross, CEO of Blissful Births and Babies, Inc. and co-founder of Blissful Mama, has dedicated more than 16 years to supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. With a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education and a Montessori certification, Ross’s journey began with her own empowering birthing experience in 2007, which has fueled her passion for education and understanding of the importance of early childhood development and natural approach to birthing.

Ross is now a certified HypnoBirthing instructor, birth doula, lactation educator, and more, guiding individuals and families with evidence-based knowledge and equipping them to make informed choices. “Pregnancy, labor, and birth is a very vulnerable time in a person’s life, and with so much information available—especially on social media—some of it is misleading,” she says. “My role is to help mothers and families navigate through these processes and provide evidence-based information to make their own decisions.” Ross has supported over 1,000 births for individuals and families wishing to birth in a hospital, free-standing birth centers, or home birth settings; and is known for her commitment to ongoing education. She is a compassionate, knowledgeable guide, providing a calm, positive environment during one of life’s most profound experiences.
