Your body is doing constant work throughout your pregnancy. It’s taking every ounce of your energy to grow and sustain your baby, and as a result, your body is feeling the pain. If you are looking for the best way to show yourself some much-needed love right now, I would love to introduce you to Victoria at Here Together Birth. As a Champaign newborn photographer, I adore working with women as they prepare for motherhood. Here is why I think you are going to love working with her!

Here Together Birth is owned and operated by Victoria Baez, or Toria, for short. She has been practicing yoga since she was a teenager and continues to see it as a way to stay grounded in even the most difficult of seasons. She adores working alongside expectant moms to show them how they can create a practice that nourishes their bodies throughout every season. When she’s not busy leading yoga sessions, she creates artwork that celebrates and supports new parents. As a mother herself, she understands this journey and wants to help you however she can!

Here Together Birth is a certified doula and yoga instructor who currently offers yoga classes around Champaign. She sees the practice as a way to treat your body while also creating a community that will be there long after your baby arrives. She offers small-group sessions that encourage discussion. In order to join a pod, you will start out by sending her an email. Once she has at least four students, you will be able to move forward with booking your class. Typically, sessions will have between four and seven students.
She offers sessions at Pure Being, located in Urbana. Yogis of all levels are welcome to join along, but she does require you to be out of your first trimester. Each session will last around an hour, and the classes will run for six weeks at a time. She encourages you to arrive at least 10 minutes early so you can find a space and grab some props before settling in. In an effort to make these classes available to all, she does offer a sliding payment scale.

Here Together Birth is constantly looking for brand new ways to aid parents. She offers birthwork services across the area, assisting with deliveries as a doula. I also adore her artwork! She creates hand-painted illustrations that are rich with color and detail! She has a newsletter where you can subscribe and get all of her work forwarded straight to your inbox!
If you have been looking for the best way to show your body some care, I think you are going to adore Here Together Birth! With Toria, you are going to have a friend as you prepare to meet your little one.
