How to VBAC: The Ultimate Prep Course for Parents

Advanced VBAC Doula Certification

At The VBAC Link, our mission is to make birth after Cesarean better, by helping parents preparing for VBAC birth build confidence in their birth choices.

We are Julie Francom and Meagan Heaton; between the two of us we have supported over 700 parents in their VBAC journeys, have had three HBAC’s, and one VBA2C. We get you!

Besides our VBAC courses for Parents and Doulas, you will want to make sure you check out our podcast of VBAC stories, VBAC blogs, and our Facebook community of support.  We also have a collection of VBAC doulas to help you during your VBAC pregnancy and more!

Welcome to The VBAC Link

We are Julie Francom (left) & Meagan Heaton (right)

Along with being doulas and moms, we have a passion for all things VBAC and empowering moms to play an active role in their pregnancy and birth by finding out the true VBAC risks and benefits.

With 4 kids under 6, Julie is always caffeinated and takes pride in finding new ways to encourage her kids to help tidy up. Current fave: cleaning dance parties!

Meagan is always on the go. Between doulaing for clients, running half marathons, and speaking and teaching about VBAC she likes long walks around the block with her husband at night so they can connect and catch up.
