DIY is overrated.

As perinatal educators, there is an underlying notion that in order to be great, we have to do it all: build curriculums, design presentations, craft parent materials, and everything else that fills our days.

In many other educational settings (from elementary to university), educators don't feel the same pressure to reinvent the wheel. They begin with well-researched curriculums, expertly designed textbooks, and engaging presentations. Then, they make them their own.

You deserve a running start, too.

We believe:

You shouldn't have to start from scratch.

That's why we're devoted to equipping you with professional, up-to-date and flexible curriculums, presentation slides and parent books that both you and your clients will love to use.

Excellent Postpartum resource!

The Settling In with Baby book is single-handedly, one of the best Postpartum resources on the market. I purchase one for every single one of my birth Doula clients… And they love it! It has great pictures and explanations of things that they need to know after the baby is arrived.

Great product

Our Branded Healthy Pregnancy booklet is a great source of information for our clients! I love the clean look and it is all the information we need to share with a parent in a great looking package. The sales team was great to work with too! Very responsive and helped us design a booklet that was perfect for our clinic. Thank you!

Absolutely wonderful brochures and customer service!

We have ordered breastfeeding brochures from Plumtree Baby for many years, and they are such a helpful resource for our new mothers! The quality and content of the brochures is outstanding. It is so nice that they can be personalized with our hospital's branding. I highly recommend these brochures and this company!

This booklet is almost perfect

I use the Breastfeeding Your Baby book in a breastfeeding class at 36 weeks pregnant for my primes and it is wonderful. I follow the pages for the order of the class, and I appreciate the information, the pictures, and the simplicity but completeness of the material.

Well worth the investment

Using Plumtree materials has truly elevated our birth classes to the next level, with beautiful easy to understand materials that aren't just dozens of paper handouts! Will definitely order again.

Before we go on...

Let's address the elephant in the room.

Most perinatal educational materials look like they were created decades ago. (We said it, but you were thinking it.) Don't worry, all things from Plumtree Baby are:

Fresh

We would say "modern," but even that word sounds cliché. The truth is, our teaching resources balance tried-and-true practices with up-to-date research in a visually appealing, easy-to-digest format that today's parents are accustomed to.

No more embarrassment about design quality

Finished

Each curriculum comes complete with short and longer lesson plans, teaching scripts for inspiration (or to read word for word), and engaging classroom activities. Add on coordinating presentation slides and parent guide books for a true open-and-go experience.

No more photocopied handouts.

Flexible

Whether you're teaching in-person or online, your class wouldn't be your class without your special something. So, our materials can easily be adjusted to delete anything not relevant to your lesson, add in things that are, and tweak anything in between.

No more disclaimers about the content.

Take a look for yourself.

Our ready-to-go materials will make you look fantastic. But, if you want to take your professionalism to the next level, consider custom branding.

We'll transform any resource with your logo, colors, and fonts to align your collateral with your brand. Plus, if you need something we don't offer yet, just ask! Oftentimes, our in-house team of educators and designers can whip it up for you.

Your work matters so very, very much.

Since our beginning in 2011, our team of healthcare providers and educators have placed over a half million resources into the hands of our peers. It's certainly a big number to celebrate, but what it represents is much more meaningful to us. We do what we do because we care about babies, we care about parents, and we care about you.

Boring or overly complex information simply gets overlooked (how many copies of What To Expect When You're Expecting do you think go unread?). Yes, we know. Women have been giving birth for centuries—it's natural! But without education, parents don't know what they don't know, and best outcomes are replaced with "the best we knew at the time."

We believe parents deserve all the facts, babies deserve informed parents, and you shouldn't have to figure out how to get the message out all on your own. It's a true honor to serve alongside you in what we consider to be the world's most important work.
