- OBGYN, Midwifery, Family Practice and Pediatric Offices
- Hospitals
- Libraries
- Retail Stores (Maternity & Baby)
- Gyms & Yoga Studios
- Community Centers
- Daycare Centers & Preschools

Benefits of Membership
In addition to a listing in the printed guide, our professional members are also listed on our website with a profile page highlighting their products and services. Over the last few months, our website has averaged 2,500 unique visitors a month and over 7,000 page views. The majority of web traffic comes from Spokane County and the surrounding region.
As a professional member you are also encouraged to provide us with your printed marketing materials so that we may give them out to parents who attend our Birth Options Class and other community events. Our members enjoy many referrals from our site and our classes.
Joining Bloom Spokane as a professional member is the best thing I’ve ever done to grow my business. At least 50% of the people who take the course found Inland HypnoBirthing through Bloom.
