Childbirth Education

Childbirth education helps you learn about choices in labor and birth.

Giving birth is a life-changing event that requires mental, physical and emotional energy.

You probably will experience pregnancy and birth only a few times in your life.

You will be surrounded with opinions and stories from many sources, including the internet. Taking my high-quality childbirth education workshop is an important step in deciding what you might want during your child’s birth, and preparing you for what you might encounter.

I bring my training as a birth doula and home-birth midwife to my workshops. My years working with adult learners has informed the way I like to work collaboratively.

Together we will explore the range of options that you have and the variety of situations you might encounter. I will show you ways to sort through information and misinformation by giving you sources for evidence-based information so you can make your own decisions.

This is your birth! The more you learn about birth, the better prepared you will be.
