Private Childbirth Education Classes

$200

You deserve childbirth education that makes you feel confident, not confused, overwhelmed, or terrified.

My Private Childbirth Education Classes are held in the comfort of your home and designed for families who want real, evidence-based education without the fluff.

 

This is a personalized experience where you’ll learn what’s actually happening in your body, what to expect during labor, what your options are in a hospital setting, and how to make informed decisions that support the kind of birth you want.

Whether you’re planning an unmedicated birth, an epidural, an induction, or you’re somewhere in the middle… this class helps you feel prepared either way.

Because the goal isn’t a “perfect” birth.
The goal is a birth where you feel educated, supported, and in control of your choices.

What We’ll Cover

Each class is personalized, but topics commonly include:

How labor works (in real life)

  • Early labor → active labor → pushing → postpartum

  • What’s normal, what’s not, and when to go in

Pain, pressure, and what helps

  • Coping tools for contractions

  • Comfort measures + positions

  • Partner support that actually matters

Hospital birth without feeling powerless

  • Common routines + policies

  • How to advocate for yourself

  • How to communicate preferences confidently

Interventions + options (without fear-mongering)

  • Induction, Pitocin, epidural, cervical checks, monitoring, etc.

  • The pros/cons and what they mean for you

  • How to stay informed if plans change

The mental side of birth

  • Calming the nervous system

  • Reducing fear + tension

  • Mindset tools that support physiologic labor

A plan you can actually use

  • birth preferences + flexibility

  • what you want your partner/support person to do

  • how to prepare your body and your environment

Pushing + meeting your baby

  • breathing + positions that support an easier, more effective push

  • protecting your perineum and supporting a smoother birth

Postpartum recovery + the first days at home

  • what to expect in the first 24–72 hours

  • how to recognize red flags vs normal recovery changes

  • realistic support planning: food, sleep, visitors, and boundaries

What Makes This Different

This isn’t a generic class with 15 couples and a PowerPoint that leaves you with more questions than answers.

This is a private, one-on-one class that’s tailored to:

  • your pregnancy

  • your personality

  • your provider/hospital

  • your biggest fears and goals

  • and the kind of support you actually need

You’ll leave knowing what to do, what to expect, and how to stay grounded when things get intense.

This is your chance to walk into birth feeling informed, supported, and ready.
