Private Classes for Natural Childbirth

Our private classes help mom prepare for labor and birth and to help dad be an active participant in helping mom achieve a natural birth. We understand that labor is an athletic event and a journey so preparation and a willingness to look at your fears and learn techniques to help manage pain are a part of this wonderful process. Frank and Jennifer teach these classes together so that dad's can feel more comfortable and feel supported by another dad who has experienced birth with both of his children.

We meet with the couple for 4 sessions. Classes are tailored to the couples needs and concerns. The cost is $185 per couple and includes 4 sessions in the couples home, unlimited access to my extensive reference library and 24 hour phone support for labor and postpartum.

Our Goals:

~ To prepare each couple so that they feel comfortable with what to expect in labor.
~ To prepare each mom so that she has the information to have the safest and most rewarding birth experience possible.
~ To thoroughly prepare the coach to better facilitate the laboring woman's ability to birth naturally.

What you can expect from our classes is to come away with confidence that you have the knowledge and the skills to have a positive birth experience in whatever setting you have chosen.

We want you and your baby to have the best, safest and most rewarding birth experience possible. For that reason, we endorse and teach the following:

• Natural childbirth

• Active participation by the coach

• Excellent nutrition (the foundation of a healthy pregnancy and labor)

• Avoidance of drugs

• Early training

• Natural breathing combined with relaxation techniques

• Tuning into and working with your body

• Immediate and continuous contact with your new baby

• Breastfeeding beginning at birth

• Positive communications

• Informed parents sharing in the making of responsible decisions

• Parents prepared for unexpected situations (such as emergency childbirth or cesarean delivery)

We look forward to talking with you! Feel free to call and ask questions about the class or to register.
