NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, August 12, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Mother Goose Health, a leading digital maternity care platform committed to transforming perinatal health outcomes, is proud to announce a new partnership with NYC Birth Village, a trusted and community-rooted perinatal support organization serving birthing families across the five boroughs.This strategic collaboration combines Mother Goose Health’s data-driven digital care model with NYC Birth Village’s personalized doula and perinatal support services, bringing an unprecedented level of care coordination to expectant and new parents, especially those navigating barriers within New York’s complex maternal health landscape.
“NYC Birth Village is deeply aligned with our mission to bring whole-person, equitable maternity care to underserved communities,” said Kenneth A. Levey, MD, MPH, CEO of Mother Goose Health. “Together, we are bridging clinical, behavioral, and community care to give every birthing person the support they need—before, during, and after delivery.”

Addressing a Crisis in Maternal Health Equity
New York City continues to face stark maternal health disparities, particularly among Black and Brown birthing people. This partnership reflects both organizations’ shared commitment to birth equity, health system transformation, and care models that center the voices and needs of families.
Mother Goose Health’s platform is deployed in partnership with a number of New York obstetrical providers, offers digital care pathways, remote monitoring, care navigation, and closed-loop referral tools that drive measurable improvements in engagement and outcomes.
By collaborating with NYC Birth Village, the platform will further extend its reach beyond clinical settings, amplifying the impact of doulas and perinatal advocates as essential care team members.
