Birth Prep Course Now Enrolling!
Hello and thank you for your interest in my childbirth education class to prepare you for a positive labor/birth experience! I only have room for 4-5 couples for each session, so this class will be extremely personalized for you!
This class will cover a general overview of birth phases, exercises for your pregnancy to help baby be in a great position for birth, common interventions offered with their risks and benefits, tips for your partner to support you during labor, relaxation techniques, creating your birth plan, a brief explanation of what to expect during postpartum, and so much more!
This is a TWO day class and is PERFECT for anyone due through May 2025. Classes on both days for each session will be from 9 am - 2 pm. (NOTE: If a class must be canceled due to the instructor getting called to a birth, I will text each participant as soon as I go to the birth. Participants will be able to attend a future class date if the session is not already full OR we will reschedule for a date and time as soon as possible, provided there is availability at Empower Pelvic Health. Every effort will be made to ensure that you receive the full course content.)
I will be offering this class in the future, so if these session dates don't work for you, please reach out and let's see what dates do work for your pregnancy!
SESSION DATES (Note: You will only sign up for ONE of the following session dates):
2024 Session 3 Cohort: 11/30 & 12/7, 9 am - 2 pm each day
2025 Session 1 Cohort: 1/4 & 1/18, 9 am - 2 pm each day

FREE BONUS OFFER:
Anyone who completes my course will receive a certificate from Empower Pelvic Health for a COMPLEMENTARY perineal stretching session and guide (redeemable by 36 weeks gestation). This is a GREAT way to prep for your birth, especially for better postpartum healing!
