In my classes you and your partner will learn about various labor techniques and positions, prenatal exercises, medical interventions (and how to decide when they might be necessary), pain management, positive communications, the post-partum period, intro to breastfeeding, and an introduction to life with a newborn.
I especially focus on tuning into your body and your sensations, relaxation, and training your partner as a labor coach to help support a person in labor.
I currently teach private classes, 6-hours of instruction, broken into two or three sessions. Cost is $500.
My personal focus as an instructor is to prepare you for labor and birth, raise your confidence in your body and your agency over any decisions that arise, and overall, increase your birth satisfaction through knowledge and comfort techniques. If you would like me to travel to your home, I may need to charge a travel fee, depending on distance. Please contact me to find out my schedule!
