PRIVATE CHILDBIRTH CLASSES

PRIVATE PREPARED BIRTH CLASSES

When you book a private Prepared Childbirth class with me, you can be sure that both partner and birther will be prepared for all that may come along, from medical issues that may arise, to different ways to relax and breath during contractions.

I believe that every birther has the right to have comprehensive, evidence-based childbirth education. Regardless of your choice of birth location, my classes prepare you for the journey of birth. My unique childbirth classes utilize several different birthing techniques, allowing this class to be the perfect education for a home or hospital birth. You will have the tools to adapt to whatever feels best for YOU and YOUR unique birthing situation.

COMFORT MEASURES FOR LABOR WORKSHOP

As a teacher, it's my job to teach you, and your partner, the techniques I use to help my clients be comfortable during labor. As a former Doula, it was my job to help my clients be comfortable during labor.
My Comfort Measures for Labor workshop is great for couples that want to practice how to manage pain and be comfortable during labor and birth. This private workshop is great for refreshing skills from a previous birth or gain some additional knowledge to complement other classes taken.

THE WORKSHOP INCLUDES:

• Relaxation
• Breathing
• Attention focusing
• Visualization
• Positions
• Use of a birth ball
• Rebozo
• and more!

This class is perfect for those who are having their second (or third, or fourth) child, or if you've already taken a full birthing class but want extra practice with hands-on comfort measures.
