“The Birthing Your Way classes were personal and well-structured. As first-time parents, we had anxiety and so many questions about childbirth. Heather and Laura gave us all the information we sought, compassionately supported our choices, and gave my husband and I the confidence we needed. The classes made a huge difference for us, and We finally feel ready for the challenge and experience of childbirth!”

—Natalie & Doug Fairman

 These classes are meant to help couples empower themselves at their birth. The fear that is related to birth is usually a result of not knowing what is going to happen, by learning about birth and what is natural the fear is easily removed and replaced with confidence.  I hope to help my students gain the confidence necessary to relax and enjoy the birth of their child.  We teach relaxation, breathing, and coping mechanisms for pain. We believe that birth is a natural process that runs on its own clock.

We have a library of videos, books and magazines, as well as articles written by experts on childbirth that are available for my students to check out.  We encourage them take advantage of this and to read as much as they can.  They will receive over 60 handouts in class. 

We teach parents planning a hospital birth as well as those wanting to give birth in freestanding birthing centers or the privacy of their own homes.  Please look through the different classes offered below and find the one that is right for you.
