class! Your preparation and deliver of the class was
superb! We felt comfortable and confident that you were and
expert and could help us understand what we will be

than I could have expected - you are a great teacher!”
– Molly Stafford
“Thank you so much for a great class. I feel so much more
confident now about labor, not only because of what I
learned, but what Danny has learned. Knowing he is now
educated and has an idea of what to do makes me feel so
much more secure. Knowing he will know how to help me and
keep me on track with my birth plan makes me feel so much
better. I really enjoyed the class and will recommend you
to all the pregnant women I come across!”
–Ashley Vega
“I have two step sons, and my husband Troy, initially was
un-excited by the idea of going to a birthing class as he
said it didn’t make a difference anyway. He thought, “Every
woman should just get a pain shot and formula feed” because
his two boys turned out fine. Fortunately for me, he did
come to Laurie’s class. Once there we were able to open up,
have effective communication and humor with each other. We
developed genuine trust and I know he will be there so
support me during labor and afterwards. I am so grateful
that it happened because support, trust and the knowledge
that Laurie bestowed on the two of us in such a short
amount of time will have such an effect on the most
important day of my life, the birth of my daughter.”
–MIchelle Hubb
“I just delivered our little girl. We were lucky to have a
natural birth without help and all three of us are happy
and healthy! Laurie’s breathing and labor techniques were
essential and her labor support book was such a fabulous
tool during the labor and delivery and my husband used it
as a reference guide the whole time! He was an amazing
support partner. The staff at the hospital during labor was
fantastic, especially nurse Genevieve!
–Jami, Aubri and baby Jaya
“A friend recently became pregnant and found a list of
classes at her doctors office. She called to ask me which
classes were to take and I gave her my best advise, “Take
ALL of Laurie’s classes!”.
–Liana Ositis
“Laurie Chamberlin is a doula, childbirth preparation
teacher and lactation specialist! She is the entire package
and she is loving, warm, non-judgemental and has two
beautiful children of her own; so she knows first hand not
only what the process of pregnancy is like, what births are
like but also raising children and the joys and challenges
that come with it. She was our lamaze teacher and I fell in
LOVE with her! We did not use a doula but we considered it
just because we thought it would be nice to have her
presence, love and support in the delivery room....I HIGHLY
recommend your contacting her.”
–Saralyn Crossen
"We really learned a lot yesterday, and it put my
thoughts and priorities in order much faster than
otherwise. Chika is going to do great, and I will do
everything in my power to boost her confidence and good
feelings."
–Art Healy
“We learned so much in all the classes we took, the Newborn
Care, the Childbirth Class, and the Breastfeeding Class, we
just can’t show our appreciation enough, thank you!
–Brian Hixon
"That class should be like a prerequisite to having a
baby!"
–Matt Manning
“I believe that I would have felt extremely lost and
unprepared without Laurie’s birthing class, even though I
have read FIVE books!
–Linnea Quinn
"I learned an INCREDIBLE amount of
information and have been telling a lot of people about
what I've learned. I would have been so dumbfounded during
the labor process if I didn't have the knowledge that you
taught me. So again, THANK YOU!"
–David Daly
"Thank you so much for teaching such a wonderful class. I
found it so informative and helpful. My husband Dave was so
excited to win a 'This Dad Supports Breastfeeding' t-shirt
he plans to wear it on our next date!"
–Summer Bookout
"Your class helped so much during labor. Adam also did
really well making sure that I was breathing and resting
during contractions. The book you gave us came in very
handy! Thank you, your class was awesome!"
–Karrissa White
"I just want to say thank you so much for your childbirth
class. I learned so much. After 24 straight hours of back
labor, breathing really came in handy! I did end up having
nubain but I know that if I hadn't learned what we did from
you I would have had a spinal, and I'm so glad I didn't!"
–Antoinette Costa
"I don't know what you did in the Prenatal Counseling
sessions, but when Callie came home after her appointment
with you she was like a new person, for the very first time
she was actually looking forward to giving birth!"
– A father-to-be
"My cousin took a childbirth class at the same time as me
in a different town. When she went into labor she was
having back labor so I gave her a bunch of tricks over the
phone which really helped her. Later she asked how I knew
about all those comfort measures and I told her I learned
them in Laurie's class. My cousin never learned any of
these techniques in her class. We learned so much in
Laurie's class that we talked about it up until bedtime and
continued over coffee in the morning!"
–Stacey and Mike Dalbeck
"It was so helpful to go to the breastfeeding class before my son was
born. Laurie's class is very practical and gave us
many useful tips on how to get started with
breastfeeding. It was informative, creative and fun! I
highly recommend it to all expectant couples."
–Marish Finkler
"Thanks again for a great childbirth class. It is a great way for
the dad to be involved. We both feel it was an
important part of pregnancy and have learned so much.
You answered questions that we didn't know to ask. I
want to tell you that your powerpoint presentations
were dynamic! The graphics were absolutely
professional, interesting and easy to read. GREAT
JOB!"
–Amanda Welbaert
"Thank you for sharing your passion with us! You are
inspirational and touch peoples lives with your sensitivity
and compassion. I feel so fortunate to have had you for my
childbirth teacher."
–Andrea Hansen
"This class is a must! Laurie gave us so many different
tools for coping in labor and she taught us in depth about
all the different stages. My daughters birth went very well
because I felt very prepared and I knew what to expect
thanks to her class. Another great thing about Laurie is
her passion. You can tell she loves babies and their
mommies and sees birth as a wonderful miracle."
–Chelsea Cummins
"Thank you so much for taking the time to care, you have
been such a huge help!"
–Desiree Belding
"I can't begin to tell you how much more confident I feel
about breastfeeding when I left your class versus when I
arrived!"
–Cameron Herzog
"Thank you for all of your support through the classes, we
really enjoyed being a part of the group and it helped us
tramendously."
–Michelle, Nick and Baby Bodley
"Thank you for the birthing classes, I was really able to
relax and understand the process this time around."
–Jill Grassick
"What would I change about Laurie's classes?....Absolutely
nothing!"
