Fun, interactive, evidence-based classes in Winnipeg, MB.

Fun, interactive, evidence-based classes in Winnipeg, MB. Feel prepared, empowered and confident heading into birth!
Get all the information that you need to make informed choices, give birth in the way that feels right for you and learn how to birth with comfort and ease.
Birth Classes taught by two passionate doulas and birth educators who support all birthing families in a judgment-free, supportive and welcoming environment. We take a holistic approach to birth by looking at all aspects - physical, mental and emotional - of the birthing and labour process.
After taking our birth classes you will walk away:

​• With a confident Birth Partner who is familiar with birth and knows how to support you
• With a sense of trust in your body and what it is capable of
• A clear understanding of Physiological Birth and what you can do before and during labour to encourage a normal, healthy birth
• Knowing your options (whether you are birthing at home, birth center or hospital) in Birth and how to navigate interventions
• A Birth Plan that you can provide your health providers to help communicate your wishes and preferences regarding care during labour
• Tools for Coping with Labour Pain and Strategies for Labour Progression
It can be really hard to discern fact from fiction with all the birth stories out there, social media articles and movies portraying birth in a negative or false way!
It’s totally normal to feel nervous and excited all at the same time when you think about giving birth.
Whether it’s the first, second, third or tenth time!
Maybe this is your first time birthing or you’ve given birth before but you know deep in your gut that there’s got to be a better way.
If you’ve given birth before, maybe you want to do things differently this time around. You want to feel empowered, confident and aware of your options surrounding birth.
In our comprehensive birth class series we will cover:
​• The Mind/Body Connection
•Mindfulness and Pain Perception
•Stages and Phases of Labour
•Breathing, Relaxation and Coping Strategies
•Birth and Body Confidence
•Navigating Your Options & Medical Interventions
•Birth and Postpartum Planning
•Breastfeeding and Newborn Care
