Our Prepared Childbirth class presents extensive information on all aspects of pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum care. We believe in giving parents the most accurate scientific information and letting them make the best decision for themselves and their family. Every family is different and it is our goal to give you the information you need and the tools necessary to make the best decision for you and to help you accomplish your goals.
Why should I take a class? Doesn't my body already know how to give birth naturally?
Yes, it absolutely does. Your body was made to give birth, but truly understanding what is happening and knowing how to work with your body is the key! This helps to reduce any fear about the birthing process, eliminates unnecessary pain and interventions, and can shorten the length of time you will be in labor.
Knowledge is power and never will there be a more important time for a woman to acknowledge and own her power then when she is giving birth to her baby!
