"I don't care what kind of birth you have...a homebirth, scheduled cesarean, an epidural hospital birth or if you give birth alone in the woods next to a baby deer. I care that you had options, that you were supported in your choices and that you were respected."
- January Harshe
THE BIRTH JOURNEY
Whether you are planning to birth at home or in the hospital, with midwives or a doctor, with or without pain medication, this course is for you. My goal in class is always to provide you with the information you need to be able to advocate for yourself and make informed choices that feel aligned, safe, and best for you and your baby. I want you to leave feeling inspired, connected, powerful, confident, and informed. Partners! This class is for you, too! Learn practical tools for providing physical and emotional support during labour, and know what it means to be the ‘Gatekeeper’ of the birth space! This course will be held live and in-person with classes spanning 5 weeks. It can easily be moved to a virtual class should that be required.

POSTPARTUM PREP COURSE
So, you’ve arrived on the other side of birth…what now?!
Come to this 3 hour course for birthers/couples and prepare for the beginning of your next big adventure! The preparation for your postpartum time is just as important as your labour and birth journey, if not more. Birth is a glimmer, but postpartum is forever.
This course is a beautiful addition to the Birth Journey Course, however anyone is welcome who is interested in gaining practical tools and information about the first weeks following the arrival of your new baby. Partners and support people are welcome and strongly encouraged to attend!
