Breck Hawk has over 27 years experience as a midwife, doula, prenatal instructor, and Registered Nurse specializing in Maternity and Neonatal Intensive Care.

In Canada she assisted in over 250 homebirths as a direct entry midwife, founded the Alberta chapter of the Association for Childbirth at Home International (ACHI), and served as President and prenatal instructor. She lectured, organized community fundraisers and lobbied the local governments to relax homebirthing laws.

In the United States Breck worked for ten years as an RN at Sacred Heart Community Hospital in Eugene, Oregon. She nursed in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (Level III) where she cared for premature babies for five years. And later in San Francisco she established her own successful doula practice.

Breck is currently a Neonatal Intensive Care nurse in San Diego, California. But who knows where she’ll be next year or the year after that...

Breck was raised in Japan, Germany, North Africa, and the Pacific Northwest. In the sixties she was the quintiessential flower-child and lived in Haight Ashbury, San Francisco; Soho, New York; a commune in southern Oregon; and, for three days, Woodstock.
