My Most Recommended Childbirth Education Classes!

Knowledge is power, and childbirth education provides a solid foundation for parents as they prepare for birth. I consistently see that families who have prepared themselves through quality education are more satisfied with their birth outcomes because they feel empowered to make the best decisions as needs arise.

We are blessed to have many in-person class offerings in the greater twin cities area, as well as excellent online and hybrid options.

Some of my top recommendations include:

In Person
Arisen Collaborative: I am a member of a Christian doula collaborative and am excited to offer these courses at a discount to my clients. I highly recommend these classes if you are looking for tools for an unmedicated birth, preparation for breastfeeding, prenatal nutrition, and more.
 
Hybrid
Bradley Birth: Miranda is a great teacher and skilled colleague who provides Bradley method courses that will prepare both parents to work together through the labor process. Most of the classes are held on Zoom with just a couple of in person classes to put it all together.
 
Online
Built to Birth: My favorite online course that includes comprehensive birth education, gives confidence and tools, and helps parents build a positive mindset for their labor and birth.
Mama Natural: Another favorite online course especially designed for families who are naturally-minded and want to be really prepared to meet their baby.
 
Specialized Courses
If you’ve already gone through a comprehensive childbirth education program or have already had a few babies, a niche class can be interesting and helpful.
​
Spinning Babies: Learn more about the physiology of birth and tools to prepare your body for labor.
Hypnobabies: Build self-hypnosis skills, deep relaxation, and more as a unique approach to childbirth.

*Note that other than Arisen Collaborative, I am not affiliated with any of these courses or organizations. I do my best to make recommendations that are in alignment with my beliefs and philosophy.
