Cuteness overload!

The Santa Barbara Birth Center celebrated its first year of service ― and 20 babies born ― on Saturday.

On a rare Indian summer day, a joyous reunion picnic was held in gorgeous Tucker’s Grove Park.

Guests included doulas, midwives, families and adorable babies brought into the world naturally.

The birth center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing complete midwifery care to women with low-risk pregnancies who seek a safe alternative to birth in the hospital.
