Congratulations on your pregnancy and welcome to the exciting world of Expectant Parenthood! Choosing a Childbirth Class, a Birth Doula, a Midwife, an OB, a Hospital, Birth Center, a Pediatrician and/or a Postpartum Coach are just a few of the many decisions you get to make throughout your early parenting journey. There are many choices in childbirth education. Hospital classes offer a tour and a glimpse into birth. Private, Comprehensive childbirth classes provide an in depth educational experience.
Take A Comprehensive Childbirth Class taught by the Newborn Family Coach! I hope you will invite me to walk with you on your parenting journey! As the Newborn Family coach, I have 15+ years of experience as a childbirth educator, birth doula, and postpartum coach. I have supported & empowered couples expecting their first baby, fifth baby and multiples. If you are looking for a joyful and informed birth experience, take my Comprehensive class series called Joyful and Informed Natural Childbirth. Classes are small and intimate with a harmonious mixture of lecture, experiential activities, demonstrations, and videos that create a lively & instructional class setting. My hands on coaching experience as a birth doula provides coaches with essential tools for supporting a laboring woman. I specialize in delivering calm & confident parents to newborn babies.
