History

Two decades, one mission

From a single childbirth class in 2004 to a team trusted by seven hospitals — here's how MomEase grew.

  1. 2004

    MomEase begins

    Carolyn Alexander founds MomEase in Alexandria, Virginia, with a simple mission: turn the fear around birth into confidence through honest, evidence-based education.

  2. 2006–2010

    Sibley Memorial years

    MomEase instructors serve as childbirth educators at Sibley Memorial Hospital, redesigning the hospital's prenatal curriculum with InJoy Birth and Parenting Education materials alongside the parent-education director and staff.

  3. 2010s

    Trusted by institutions

    Corporate and institutional clients — including March of Dimes and the George Washington University Health Plan — bring MomEase in for classes, infant and child CPR training, customized postpartum benefits, and corporate baby showers.

  4. Today

    A full continuum of care

    Partnerships with seven area hospitals and three birth centers, a board of medical advisors, and a diverse team — with over 12,748 couples and their families served, and Denver on the horizon.

Along the way

Tools we built for parents

When the right resource didn't exist, we made it — some at a hospital's request, all still rooted in the same evidence-based care.

The Progression Guide

An 8"×8" foldout that opens to a 24" wall chart — visual fetal development month by month, with illustrations, exercises, and fitness tips for each stage of pregnancy.

The Baby Bathrobe

A 100% terry-cloth bathrobe designed for after-bath — water-absorbent and gentle, made for drying newborns and for infant massage.

Measure & Relaxation CD

Created at Sibley Memorial's request with our childbirth educators, midwives, and labor doulas — visualizations and relaxation techniques to ease mothers through the stages of labor.
