Wisdom for Birth

Comprehensive Couples’ Childbirth Classes

INVESTMENT OF $175/COUPLE

I began teaching over 25 years ago. I trained with CAPPA, Lamaze, HypnoBirthing, Birthing from Within and the BOLD Method. The class is designed with elements from many sources. It is a one-day comprehensive class. There is hands-on learning with you practicing techniques.. I do not show videos but do provide links to videos I think may prove helpful. After the class, you get a plethora of material in a google doc file to reinforce and enhance the information received.

I teach privately with two hour minimums. The investment is $35/hour. I book from leaving my home to leaving the location of class. I offer several private classes as well as catering to your specific needs.

The five hour comprehensive class covers:

  • The normal, holistic process of labor and birth, and health-care practices that support it

  • Changes during late pregnancy and the holistic stages of labor

  • A wide variety of coping strategies for managing pain in labor

  • The importance of labor support

  • Movement and positioning during pregnancy, labor, and birth

  • The use of a rebozo, birth ball and positioning for labor and birth

  • Medical interventions and their indications, risks, and alternatives

  • How to communicate with your health-care provider and other support people

  • Developing a birth vision that is individual for you and then a strategy to help make that vision possible

  • Breastfeeding and newborn optional procedures and care- although we do not cover breastfeeding to the extent that a breastfeeding class that is offered separately provides

  • Partnering roles, exercises and tools for helping your pregnancy, labor, birth and postpartum easier

    We limit the size of the class to offer intimacy and time for sharing. So, register early to hold your spot.
