What are the class options?

 

Group Classes (5 weeks)

 

In the group classes, we will meet once a week for 2 hours for five weeks. I keep classes small (no more than 5 couples) to allow for a more intimate environment where everyone can get to know one another and I can guarantee plenty of one-on-one time with each couple. We will watch videos, share stories, discuss your plans and options and spend a lot of time practicing various relaxation techniques and other labor exercises. These classes will educate, support, and empower you so that you can enter your birth experience feeling confident and supported. 

 

 

Private Classes

​

This is a great option for those with a busy schedule, mommas on bed rest, or couples who just want a more private education experience. We will use the same curriculum that is used in the group classes, but can customize the content based on your needs and interests. I generally schedule either 2 two-hour sessions or 1 four-hour session for private classes but additional sessions can always be added if more time is needed or desired. We meet at your home, or wherever is convenient for you. Private classes with fewer or more sessions are also an option as we can customize a class series that works best for you.

 

 

Online Private Classes 

 

This is also a great option for couples who may be traveling or moving during their pregnancy and unable to complete a location-based class series. You will receive the same course material as group classes and private classes. In addition, you will have access to videos and other online resources that will help you to go deeper into the material. I generally schedule 2 two-hour sessions, but additional sessions can be added to customize a class that works best for you. To take this class, you will need to have a computer or tablet with reliable internet and a camera.
