Giving birth to a supported and informed parent

Evidence-Based Birth® Childbirth Classes

What is Evidence-Based Prenatal Education?

Hospital practices can be outdated when it comes to giving birth….

The Evidence-Based Birth® Childbirth Class explores the latest, evidence-based practices in childbirth today and teaches them in a friendly and interactive way.

Why should I take this childbirth class?

You can’t learn it all from Google…and we all know there is a lot of innacurate and dangerous information online!

The benefit of the Evidence-Based Birth® class is that you have all the latest researched information curated for you and fit into your weekly sessions.

When you have questions, it’s great to have an experienced instructor on hand. I am there for you to provide you with guidance each week and answer your questions.

We talk about issues facing birth today and get hands-on practice with pain management during our Comfort Measures Rehearsal. I also love to share my hypnobirthing experience so you can add it to your birthing tool box.

I have been teaching prenatal classes for over 10 years, and by far this is the most complete class out there.

How can I invest in my birth?

the EBB Childbirth Class includes 6 live online classes, 3-month access to online content at EBB® Academy, access to PDF handouts, video and audio recording libraries and a digital workbook!
$315 (divided in smaller weekly payments) and billed as naturopathic education. This service is covered by most health insurance benefits.

What is the best time for me to take the class?

I recommend to take the classess between 20 and 30 weeks. This gives you time to learn the material and practice the techniques learned in class.
