Birthing a Family Natural Childbirth classes are for both first-time parents as well as experienced parents interested in a labor and birth refresher, plus more!

My classes are unique.  Taking a holistic approach, this course helps parents prepare for birth on all levels: emotional, physical and spiritual.  The classes prepare new parents in the fundamentals:

• the basics of labor, postpartum, and newborn care
• pain coping techniques and practices

In addition, Birthing a Family Natural Childbirth classes also encourage new parents to think of birth as a Rite of Passage. The course teaches techniques that enable parents

• to dig deep and develop their inner-resources for the challenges of parenting
• to prepare for the personal transformation of birth and parenting
• to increase their confidence in the choices they face during pregnancy, labor and with their new baby

Birthing a Family Natural Childbirth classes incorporate many multi-sensory experiences from journaling to Birth Art to encourage parents to find answers to their questions about birth. The course also uses Birthing From Within: An Extra-Ordinary Guide to Childbirth Preparation by Pam England and Rob Horowitz as a reference and guide.

A new baby is a life changing event. Birthing a Family Natural Childbirth classes help you prepare on all levels so when you are finally holding your new baby in your arms, you will have the confidence to engage fully as a new parent.
