    Natalie Guzman, Chieko Babb, and Anna Demetra Badoian tell us about the premier screening of a film you don’t want to miss – Pacific Mother – plus the work they are doing. I will also be speaking with Christine Diaz, a member of the BIRTH Fair Leadership Team, who will share information about this year’s BIRTH Fair. BIRTH (Bringing Information and Resources to Houston) is sponsoring the Houston premiere of the award-winning film Pacific Mother. The film will make its Houston debut on April 22, 2026, at Cafe Brasil, located at 2604 Dunlavy Street, from 7 to 10 PM. Natalie Guzman is a Salvadoran birth doula, student midwife, and ceremonialist, devoted to reclaiming birth as a sacred rite of passage. She is the co-founder of Aliento of Nacimiento – A school of traditional birth arts. It was the ecstatic homebirth of her son that opened the portal into birthwork for her. It was an initiation that forever changed her life and awakened a calling she couldn’t ignore. She also serves on Birth Fair’s Leadership Team and is a vital link between Birth Fair and spanish speaking families in Houston, Texas. Chieko Babb is a Japanese-Puerto Rican licensed midwife and co-founder of Aliento de Nacimiento. Chieko believes her midwifery training instilled in her the importance of taking on leadership in communities for the health of future generations. Her practice of holistic midwifery care is rooted in both evidence-based practices and respect for traditions. She brings all the tools of the trade she has gathered throughout her journey as a birth doula, herbalist, reproductive health ally, and home birth midwife into her practice. Anna Demetra Badoian is the heart behind Of the Earth Holistic Care and Of the Earth Botanicals. These are spaces where she gets to share her passions as an experienced bodyworker, plant lover and birth worker dedicated to the wellbeing of womxn, wombs and the childbirth continuum. Her background includes over a decade of work in the Rolf Method of Structural Integration, Scar Work®, Arvigo Abdominal Therapy, Yoga/Functional Movement and Energy Healing. She is a gifted teacher and healer in our community. Together, they are dedicated to spreading awareness of ancestral ways of birth, weaving workshops, ceremonies, and gatherings that honor tradition, culture, and the wisdom of the body. Christine Diaz is a long-time supporter and volunteer with BIRTH. Her first BIRTH Fair was in 2005, when she volunteered in the maternity fashion show, and she has been involved ever since. This year, she is serving as the Sponsor/Vendor Coordinator. After experiencing the empowerment of having her three children at home with a midwife, she became dedicated to helping others learn about their birth options and supporting the right of every birthing person to shape their own experience. Outside of her work with BIRTH, Christine has been active in community media, co-hosting KPFT’s Voices at Work for several years. She currently works full-time, enjoys fitness, and is a fan of Abbott Elementary. She is grateful to her partner, Gordon, for supporting her ongoing commitment to BIRTH Fair and its mission.

    Kirsten Nottleson, Hand in Hand Parenting
    Mar 31 2026
    Kirsten Nottleson, Parent and Teacher Educator is the proud mother of 2 sons, aged 20 and 26. She has been playing and working with children, parents, caregivers, and teaching professionals for 32 years. She sees that most parents in today’s society are working under significant stress, with insufficient support. She understands that parents and caregivers want children to be happy, healthy, and have good, big lives and are better able to do that when they are seen, heard, and respected. She supports parents to understand their own history, to bring awareness to the context in which they are parenting, build a practical support network for themselves, and heal from their early wounds, so that they can feel more confident, connected, playful, and lead their families more consciously and effectively. She has been a preschool teacher, summer camp owner/ director, mentor for instructors and parents. She has worked extensively with young and teen parents, and families with substance use issues. She helped develop a Peer Education Parenting Curriculum which she brought into 14 Texas prisons, training inmates to listen to one another to help each other heal. Her work is based on the Hand in Hand Parenting Approach which she believes to be nothing short of Peace Movement in Action. She raised both her children using the Hand in Hand Parenting Tools and is eternally grateful for the shift in her parenting that was possible as a result. Young children KNOW when something is not right, they protest loudly, YOU protested loudly, yelled, cried, had tantrums, tried to let people know with indignation that something wasn’t right. And very few of us had an adult who could listen well to these upsets They were quelled or squashed in one way or another So we learned to be quiet This pattern comes with us Being heard helps to undo that pattern, helps us to see and feel that we are not alone with the current struggles, that others care Leading a Parent Resource Group Booklet which describes exactly how you can set up a group in your community Hand in Hand Parenting Foundations Course with Kirsten, 6 weeks starting April 7, 2026 FREE CARE PACKAGE for PARENTING IN DIFFICULT TIMES.
