Hello, my name is Zabrina Cox, I am a Labor & Delivery RN, Certified Labor Doula, and Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator. I am currently working on my certification as a StillBirthday Doula for families experiencing loss. I have lived on the Central Coast for 17 years.  Since 2007, I have been serving in the birth community. I have had the honor to care for birthing families in both SLO County and Santa Maria. I truly LOVE what I do.
 
I am excited to bridge the gap between childbirth professionals and families on the Central Coast to grow a bigger and stronger birth community TOGETHER. In my free time, as often as we can, I love to have family days of our own with my husband and preschooler enjoying anything outdoors.

My name is Jasmine Haddad, I work as a Naturopathic Doctor at East West Natural Medicine Center. Throughout my training and continuing education- I have focused in Natural Childbirth, Fertility, Hormones, and Reproductive Endocrinology to be able to support patients throughout their entire perinatal journey. 
 
I am excited to be a part of the CCCN board to help further support and bring awareness to all of the amazing services and providers the Central Coast has to offer the community trying to start or expand their families. 

Hi there! My name is Liz Worthen, and I am a mom to two boys, ages 4 and 2. I've worked in Education for the past decade both as a high school English teacher and as a University Supervisor for student teachers at Cal Poly. 
 
My first son was born in 2020 when the world was shutting down, and it was a challenging time! The isolation so many of us experienced made me passionate about helping families connect to resources and each other as we move through such a unique stage of life. That is what initially led me to start @cencoastkids so I could collate activities, parks, and events for growing families. I also serve as the Kids' Activities Chair for the AG Harvest Festival. I love our local community, and I am so excited to work with CCCN to help families realize and connect with the amazing resources and community we have here on the Central Coast

Hello, my name is Erin Hernandez. I am a mom of two (4 year old girl and 2 year old boy) and an emergency room nurse for almost 12 years. I am passionate about health and wellness and empowering families to be advocates for their own health. As an ER nurse, I have always seen the importance of ample support and care for growing families. After becoming a mom in 2019 and my own pregnancy and birthing experiences, I realized to a further degree how impactful this community can be on the parenthood journey. I hope to be a part of empowering parents, connecting them with the vast network of resources available and helping to optimize their story of parenthood. 

I have lived on the Central Coast for 5 years with my husband. We love being part of this community and experiencing all it has to offer including hikes, beach and generally being outside and enjoying sunshine! I also enjoy reading, exercise and baking (especially sourdough bread).

Thank you again, for this opportunity! I am looking forward to it.
