Birth Tub Rental

Blossom Birth has one La Bassine Birthing Eco Pool birthing tub available for rental. Details on the tub can be found here: www.yourwaterbirth.com/la-bassine-birthing-eco-pools-la-bassine-®-birthing-pools-p-276.html.

The rental fee is $100 (includes the tub, electric pump to inflate the tub, no cross contamination water pump), plus an additional $15 fee for the non reusable liner. We require a refundable deposit of $40 to reserve the pump. Please give us as much advance notice as possible to make sure the tub is available for your use (we will need a minimum of 15 days notice to reserve the tub).

Please call us at 650-321-2326 for details and reservation, or email us at blossom@blossombirth.org.

Here are some details to review about renting our tub:

  1. You will need to sign a rental agreement with us.
  2. The tub fits in a box and easily transportable - it comes with an electric pump to inflate the tub, a high quality no cross contamination water pump, a hose to fill the tub, a one time use liner to protect the tub. Instructions are included.
  3. You will be responsible for purchasing a hose to remove the water, to ensure there is no contamination. You might also need a connector for the hose to fit on your faucet.
  4. You are welcome to schedule a time with us to come see the tub.

In addition, local midwife Ronnie Falcao, also rents tubs and has a link to other places that rent them: www.gentlebirth.org/tubs/tubsIndex.html.
