Birth Center Hires Local Expert to Help With Expansion

Largo birth center looks to well-known communications specialist and birth professional to help expand services to the community.

Breath of Life Women’s Health and Birth Center announced today that communications specialist June Connell has joined the birth center as its first-ever Community Relations Manager.  For the last nine years, June has worked in the Tampa Bay birth community as a certified childbirth educator, birth doula and prenatal yoga teacher.  That experience, combined with decades of experience in media and communications in the New York Metro area, makes her a perfect fit to help grow and lead the birth center’s new community outreach efforts. 

“I am so excited to have an expanded role at Breath of Life,” said June, who has taught birth classes at the center since 2008.  “To work with the skilled and experienced Certified Nurse Midwives is such an honor.  I am committed to helping the center create a solid community of pregnant and new parents to help provide them with the resources they need during the life-changing transition to parenthood.”

"June will be an instrumental part of the birth center's growth. We are happy to have her on board."
