About Christine Novak

 

“Birth is sacred work. I am dedicated to bringing the Calm Birth program into maternal-child health centers and hospitals globally. Throughout my 20 years experience as a holistic Labor and Delivery nurse and childbirth educator, and my 15 years experience as a doula, I remain true to my vision that it is possible for us to approach birth with deep respect and reverence. As a recipient of the 2008 Nursing Excellence Award from Overlook Hospital and the 2009 Best for Baby Award from the March of Dimes, I know others recognize my commitment to co-creating opportunity for birth to be a healing, transformative process. Understanding that the way we give birth and what occurs in the crucial period after birth has life-long impact on mother and child is essential. I encourage obstetricians, midwives, nurses, doulas, and childbirth educators to learn about Calm Birth meditation practices. Calm Birth offers women the choice to heal their nervous system, empower their immune system, and gain energy and a sense of wellbeing in preparation for birth. This program is a gift for complete prenatal care during the 21st Century and I am honored to carry this work forward”. Atlantic Health / Overlook Hospital,
