About Evidence Based Birth®
Join me and other soon-to-be parents who want to know the latest research evidence about birth in this hybrid series that combines pre-recorded weekly videos with 6 weeks of live, interactive classes. This program dives deep into various birth topics including: stages of labor, comfort measures, relaxation practice, advocacy and birth planning, birth interventions, breastfeeding/chestfeeding, newborn care, and more!
Evidence-Based Birth® is a cutting edge, comprehensive program that will support you and your chosen birth companion in feeling exceptionally informed, practiced, and empowered for your birthing time. During the series, you have the opportunity to read, practice, and watch videos weekly. You are encouraged to bring your questions and thoughts to class each week and to make class time work for you. This class is for anyone who desires any type of birth.
