“My first encounter with Beth was outside of my Philly stoop when she was leading stroller-friendly exercises classes all over South Philly. She was inspiring, knowledgeable, and, most important, all about feasibility. She is one of the most realistic and creative health professionals I have ever met. She’s about sustainable and manageable ideas and goals and every parent at any stage needs a professional like that.”

“Jana is an incredible human being—not only the founder of an amazing organization but also a talented and compassionate yoga teacher, an empathetic leader, and an incredibly supportive employer. I feel so lucky to have been mentored and guided by her, witnessing her magic firsthand. The way kiddos engage and join in on the fun during her yoga classes is a testament to how naturally she connects with the children she serves. She deserves all the recognition, and I am proud to know her and be part of her team.”

“Dr. Jenny Pinero founded The Children’s Tooth Spa with a purpose far greater than providing exceptional pediatric dental care. Her mission is to create a safe, nurturing space where her team and patients alike feel valued, protected, and cared for. But her vision doesn’t stop at the walls of her practice—Dr. Jenny is committed to making a difference in the lives of those around her, leaving a legacy of love, generosity, and community. When a child arrived at the office soaking wet from the rain, Dr. Jenny didn’t hesitate to wash and dry his clothes, ensuring he left not only with a bright smile but with his dignity restored. Hearing about local children suffering from food insecurity, she created an 11-week initiative delivering meals to a community fridge, feeding 30 children weekly. And when a mother tearfully admitted she couldn’t afford both nitrous oxide for her child’s procedure and groceries for her family, Dr. Jenny covered the cost, ensuring the child received care without additional hardship. Dr. Jenny leads with compassion, never allowing others to take advantage of her kindness but always willing to help those in true need.”

“Dr. Tina Ho is an incredible professional whose expertise is matched only by her kindness and genuine care for her patients. From the moment you walk into her office, she and her team make you feel welcomed and valued. She takes the time to listen, thoroughly explains each procedure, and ensures your comfort every step of the way. I highly recommend Dr. Ho for her exceptional skills, warm demeanor, and commitment to delivering outstanding results.”

“Gabrielle Rathz and Dawson Marshall created something really special. Their physical therapy company was founded to break the traditional standard of physical therapy by seeing so many patients at once that there was no care or meaningful recovery behind it. These two genuine people believe in doing what’s right and founded a company to help people actually heal and live pain free lives again. Gabrielle specializes in pelvic floor therapy as one of the many modalities treated and Dawson works with runners and many other variations of patient care to help people thrive injury-free.”

“This woman-of-color owned business run by Dr. Yaz is a great dentist employing mostly women of color. All staff are skilled, knowledgeable, and friendly. With a giant puppet theater, sensory toys, and an excellent book selection — as well as a prize at the end — my daughter looks forward to going here twice a year! They also take all insurance.”
