Mentor Pod by Birth Care Pod

Find guidance, offer guidance, or stay open to mentees.

Birth Care Pod starts with Mentor Pod: a simple opt-in board where birthworkers and birth-adjacent providers can show what kind of support they want to give or receive.

Join the pod

Basics first. Short intro optional.

Mentorship

Tell us how you want to connect. You can change this later.

Start with the basics. You can finish the rest later.

The board

Browse who is looking for guidance, happy to mentor, or open to mentees.

Example card

Sharlene B.

Birth doula · 90004

Open to mentoring newer doulas around client communication, birth plans, and building a steadier referral circle.

Happy to mentor Open to mentees

Cards show public-facing details only: name, care focus, ZIP/region, short intro, mentorship intent, and optional public link. Email and phone stay private.

How people connect

Browse the board, follow public links, or ask for a warm-context intro.

Public link You choose what points out.

Add a website, booking page, Instagram, or public profile if you want people to reach your existing work directly.

Warm intro Context still matters.

If someone wants help making the ask, Birth Care Pod can keep the first request clear so people are not treated like a contact list.

Community rule No forced gatekeeping.

You own your work and links. The protected layer is for consent, context, and better handoffs when a relationship needs more than a cold DM.

What’s coming
