Rabbi Miriam Cotzin Burg is the founder of Hava NaBaby. Soon after giving birth to her first child, she realized that combining “Jewish” and “childbirth education” had the potential to be transformational for many people during this liminal time of life. Since then, she has taught expectant parents in Chicago, Baltimore, and Los Angeles, where she now lives.
Miriam is a childbirth educator certified by the International Childbirth Education Association and has been a rabbi for more than two decades.
Lucy Marshall is a queer Ashkenazi Jewish educator, facilitator, ritualist, and network weaver. Passionate about cultivating Jewish belonging, she is the Director of Engagement & Education at Jewish Family & Children’s Service of Minnesota. Previously, Lucy directed the Rising Tide Open Waters Mikveh Network at Mayyim Hayyim, taught at Shir Tikvah Congregation, and served as the Twersky Education Fellow at the Jewish Women’s Archive. She earned her MSW from the University of Minnesota and MA in Jewish Education from the Jewish Theological Seminary. Lucy is a proud ema (mother) to her babies Lazer and Raizel on Dakota Land in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
