Birthing Baby's Complete Childbirth Class Series is a comprehensive course
which meets 2 hours, once a week, for 8 weeks. Make-up classes are usually
available if you must miss a class. The class includes lots of handouts,
in-class videos, and access to my extensive book and video lending library. I
am available to my students by phone well into their postpartum period to
answer questions, give referrals as needed, and provide support. I also host
an annual reunion for current and former students and doula clients. It's
always fun to see how the little ones have grown!
Birthing Baby's Complete Childbirth Class Series is built around the following
principles which are excerpts from the Mother-Friendly Childbirth Initiative:
* Birth is a normal, natural, and healthy process.
* Women and babies have the inherent wisdom necessary for birth.
* Birth can safely take place in hospitals, birth centers, and homes.
* A woman's confidence and ability to give birth and to care for her baby

We couldn't have done it without you. The birthing team read our birth plan and we were able
to have the baby the way we wanted. Savannah felt so good, we left the hospital a day early
the couples that come through your class have the positive delivery of their baby as we have
experienced.
Love,
Dave & Savannah (Patterson)"
Taking the Birthing Baby class & having you as our doula were the two best decisions we
made during this pregnancy. You were an amazing doula & you helped me find strength &
focus when I truly had no energy left. Thank you for your wisdom & patience in helping us have
the birth of our dreams & for giving our baby the best possible start. You will always hold a
special place in our hearts & we will always remember your birthday since it's the day after
Dean's!
Much love,
Erick, Minta & baby Dean"
