Lamaze Childbirth Education
When people think Lamaze, they often just think about the breathing, but Lamaze childbirth education encompasses that and so much more. When you sign up for this class, you’re signing up for current evidenced based information that is taught in a variety of ways to be sure that the information sticks. You’ll walk into your birth experience feeling prepared for whatever comes your way, and your support people will know just what to do to help out.
Here are just a few of the topics that you’ll want to learn about to feel well-prepared:
- The signs and stages of labor
- Comfort measures
- The benefits and trade-offs of a variety of medical interventions
- Medical Pain relief Options
- Birthing and greeting your baby
- Infant feeding
- Postpartum adjustment

Whether you attend an in-person or virtual series, you’ll leave my classes with the tools to create a birth plan that reflects what’s most important to you and the confidence to advocate for it. The key to having a great birth experience is to know your options, and I’ll make sure you also have a chance to try out tools so you know what to do when the time comes. You can choose from Lamaze Education, Hypnobirthing education, or a combination of both(which is my personal preference!).
