This is a series of four classes taught by Melissa Haley of Wyld Garden Doula Services.
This class includes hands-on pain coping strategies, birth partner communication, practical information about labor, medical decision making, postpartum planning, and interactive activities and self-reflective work to build confidence and strengthen your ability to meet whatever the birth of your baby may bring.
You can expect to learn through "three ways of knowing:"
Modern knowledge about pregnancy, labor, and postpartum from an evidence-based perspective
Intuitive knowledge from an old-as-time perspective - the sort of knowledge that birthing mammals act out in our instincts
And self-knowledge, made of the meanings you take into birth and parenting. Understanding what is uniquely important to you is key to knowing how to access the first two types of knowledge.
Come ready to build confidence and strengthen your ability to meet whatever your birth may bring!
Class is capped at 4 couplings.
