What does it mean to “birth from within”?

It means…

…knowing that birth, by design, is to walk the path of the unknown

…understanding one’s cultural conditioning in regards to their attitudes about pregnancy and birth

…exploring a path toward birth that feels safe, supportive, and grounded in trust for you, your body, and your baby

…building a network of support around you and your baby

…creating appropriate space in the heart, mind, body, and culture to honor one of life’s most sacred rites of passage

It is my honor to walk with expecting parents on the path of birth.

No matter where your path takes you, whether it’s birthing at home or in a hospital, using analgesics or not, it is my hope to guide birthing parents and their partners so they feel empowered, informed, and able to separate feelings of self-worth based on a particular birth outcome.

Let’s connect today to talk about class options and ceremony offerings that feel in tune with your birth goals. Following Pam England’s revolutionary Birthing from Within framework , these classes go beyond your average pregnancy and labor prep series. By design, these classes are completely personalized and offer the opportunity for you to connect with your body, your pregnancy, and your partner. No two class sessions will be alike (just like birth!) Topics we will explore include:

Anatomy and Physiology of Labor

Pain Coping Techniques

Interventions 101

Birth Art

Storytelling: Myths and Archetypes of Birth

Fourth Trimester- Body and Soul

Real Postpartum Planning (before your world is rocked!)

Did you know that over 60% of birthing people in the United States receive an epidural for pain relief during childbirth? Despite the fact that the majority of hospital births include epidurals, very few people know what to expect before going into the procedure.

This one-of-a-kind class for pregnant people AND their birth partners is designed to de-mystify the epidural. This class is designed for everyone, whether you are certain your birth will include epidural use or you are planning to birth with no pain medication (if there’s one thing we know is guaranteed in birth, it is to expect the unexpected!)

By taking this course, you will…

-Understand the procedure, benefits and risks of epidural use for labor

-Know the questions to ask your care provider

-Practice body positioning and alternative pain coping techniques

-Feel empowered by your choice to use epidural during labor

Partners will…

-Practice concrete ways to support your partner physically and emotionally during birth

-Gain insight into the birth experience and develop compassion and empathy

-Learn and practice techniques to be your partner’s advocate during labor and postpartum

Stay tuned for live, in-person offerings of this course in the Wilmington, Delaware area soon.

This two-hour, interactive class is offered one-on-one, private instruction via Zoom. Participants will be able to learn from the comfort of their own homes. Date and time of class will be determined upon receipt of registration.
