Classes

Having a baby is a huge change in a woman’s life! It not only changes your body, but also your mind, your relationship with your partner, and even how you see the world!

I teach holistic childbirth education where each woman finds her unique way of birthing. Rooted in philosophies (birth is instinctive), you will come away feeling confident about your upcoming birth. You will also better understand your ability to birth and how to make choices for YOU.

These classes provide evidence-based information for you to feel informed, empowered, and ready. Class topics include: optimal pelvic positions for pregnancy and labor, overcoming fears of childbirth, consenting to choices in labor, stages of labor, labor positions, comfort measures, postpartum recovery, about your newborn, breastfeeding, and more! Many individuals find that these classes give you more information and personal insight than a traditional hospital-based class.

Classes can be started anytime in your pregnancy, and they are not just for first-time parents. Moms birthing again have found the information to be beneficial in filling the gaps or wanting a different birth experience. These classes are most beneficial when taken with your partner, or labor support person. Classes will allow you and your partner to enter into conversations with each other about decisions to be made for your labor, but also discuss those early parenting days.

Classes are taught in a group setting or private class for you and your partner/support person. Interested in setting up a private class? Please use the contact page to reach out and schedule. To register for a group class, please use the registration button below.
