Labor & birth Basic Package $800

Private Birth Classes....$500*

• Free consultation

• This package consists of three private sessions in your home or my office to help you and  your spouse or primary support person prepare for labor, birth, postpartum, and parenthood. Each meeting lasts 1 1/2 hours, providing you with specialized information, guidance, and encouragement. These sessions are tailored to your unique situation and choice of birth location: home, birthing center or hospital, with or without medication for pain management, induction methods, etc. This package is ideal for the parent who may choose not to hire me as doula for the birth but would like to benefit from all the information and personalized support.

• Session 1: Stages of Birth- learn about the cervix, when baby is ready to move through the birth canal, and about birthing the placenta. 

• Session 2: Working Toward a Great Labor- learn various exercises and other habits to help your labor go as well as possible. Practice positions, breathing and pushing techniques to use during labor. 

• Session 3: Baby Care- Use a realistic doll to practice breastfeeding positions, burping, diaper changes, bathing and swaddling. 

*If you invite another pregnant friend or couple join you, the cost is reduced to $400 per couple. Please inquire about cost for larger groups. These classes can be taken over a 3-week period or I can tailor a private Birth Preparation Retreat if you are interested in taking all 3 classes at once (lodging and food extra).
