HOSPITAL BIRTHING CLASS
"I always left Laurie's classes feeling
inspired and empowered" says Mike, a father-to-be, "I
walked in not knowing anything and left feeling super
prepared."
| Who needs a Birthing Class? |
Pregnant women and their birth partners.
Taking a childbirth class teaches about pregnancy, the
birth process, and what to expect after the baby is born.
Knowledge decreases fear and in this class we provide the
expectant women with information and actual tools to help
her labor along.

class lasting 2.5 hours. The time flies by as we explore
