Company Description

BirthCare & Women’s Health is a leading, community-rooted midwifery practice and birth center based in Alexandria, Virginia, providing comprehensive, relationship-centered care across the full spectrum of a woman’s life.

While we are nationally recognized for our expertise in physiologic birth—including home birth and care in our accredited birth center—our work extends far beyond pregnancy.

We offer whole-woman, lifespan care, supporting individuals from adolescence through menopause and beyond, including:

• Preventive gynecologic care
• Cycle health and hormonal support
• Preconception and fertility guidance
• Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care
• Perimenopause and menopause support
• Integrative, culturally grounded wellness services

Serving families across Northern Virginia, Washington, D.C., and Maryland, BirthCare blends clinical excellence, ancestral wisdom, and personalized care. We are deeply committed to improving maternal health outcomes, expanding access to midwifery care, and creating a model of care that honors the physical, emotional, and cultural needs of the communities we serve.

Role Description

We are seeking visionary, high-capacity leaders to join our Board of Advisors—a strategic, non-governing body that partners closely with executive leadership to shape the future of BirthCare & Women’s Health.

This is an opportunity to contribute to a rapidly growing organization at the forefront of maternal health innovation, community-based care, and whole-woman wellness.

As a Board Advisor, you will:

• Provide strategic insight and thought partnership to executive leadership

• Support and open doors for fundraising, philanthropy, and strategic partnerships
• Offer guidance on brand positioning, marketing, and community engagement
• Analyze key data and trends to inform high-level decision-making
• Contribute to expansion initiatives, including service lines, facilities, and regional impact
• Serve as a connector and ambassador, elevating BirthCare’s visibility and influence

This role is ideal for individuals who are not only advisors—but builders, advocates, and catalysts for systemic change in women’s health.

We are intentionally building a Board of Advisors composed of diverse, high-impact leaders with expertise in one or more of the following areas:

• Finance & Investment (healthcare finance, private equity, scaling service-based organizations)
• Philanthropy & Fundraising (major gifts, foundation partnerships, capital campaigns)
• Healthcare Strategy & Policy (maternal health, women’s health, health equity)
• Marketing & Brand Strategy (thought leadership, digital growth, national positioning)
• Real Estate & Expansion Strategy (facility acquisition, development, healthcare infrastructure)
• Legal & Governance (healthcare law, nonprofit/for-profit hybrid models)

Core Qualifications

• Strong financial acumen and experience in strategic planning
• Demonstrated success in fundraising, donor engagement, or partnership development
• Analytical mindset with the ability to translate data into strategic insight
• Experience building, scaling, or advising organizations through growth phases
• Exceptional collaboration and leadership presence
• Passion for advancing maternal health, gynecologic care, and whole-woman wellness

Preferred:

• Prior experience serving on a board or advisory council
• Established network that can support funding, partnerships, or visibility

Why This Role Matters

BirthCare is entering a pivotal season of growth—expanding access to midwifery care, deepening our impact in maternal health, and building sustainable models that support both families and providers.

As a Board Advisor, you will play a key role in:

• Advancing equitable access to high-quality maternal and gynecologic care
• Supporting innovative models of whole-person, lifespan care for women
• Contributing to solutions that address the maternal health crisis in the United States
• Helping build a scalable, community-centered healthcare model
