Chapa-De’s Prenatal Care Services & Baby Luv Program
Chapa-De Indian Health Auburn Grass Valley | Medical Clinic
At Chapa-De, we provide unique prenatal care services through our Medical Care team and Baby Luv Program.
The focus of our prenatal services is to monitor the health of our patients during and after their pregnancy, as well as to educate women about their pregnancy and birth. We want all expecting mothers to be healthy, ready, and confident during their journey.
What is the Baby Luv Program and why is it important?
We encourage patients who are receiving prenatal care at Chapa-De to join our Baby Luv Program. The program helps educate soon to be mothers about what to expect during each trimester. We also help mothers after birth, by planning for the future. The Baby Luv program loves to empower mothers!
When you are an expecting mother, there are lots of visits to the doctor. There are lots of conversations with nurses. There is a lot of planning for the baby and that can be hard. But when you have a Baby Luv Coordinator to help give you advice and walk you through the process, it is much easier.
Cynthia Martinez is our Baby Luv Program Coordinator and a Certified Childbirth Educator. As a specialist in prenatal care, Cynthia says, “Every mother and baby benefit from additional support and services during the pregnancy. The more a mother knows, the more power she has. She will have less fear, less anxiety, and more confidence.” An expecting mother with less stress is more likely to have a healthier and happier baby.

Incentive Program:
We also have an incentive program to help patients prepare for the baby.
