Natural Childbirth Education
(The Bradley Method, Hybrid)
The truth is that healthy, low-risk, holistic pregnancies and births do not happen out of thin air. They require education, commitment, and intention as far in advance as possible - physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Invest in the health of yourself and your baby with a comprehensive, in-person childbirth education class. You’ll also get to meet other local expecting couples!
Includes guest speaker sessions from other local holistic-minded birth workers, such as prenatal chiropractors, prenatal yoga instructors, postpartum doulas, etc.
Classes meet in Bowie on Sundays from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Certain classes are also virtual or self-study.
*Contact for pricing and registration.
Birth Doula Package
(Home Birth or Birth Center Births Only)
Reserving me as your doula grants unlimited access to support via calls and text to navigate concerns that may arise throughout pregnancy. We will also have 3 prenatal visits where I provide birth education, make guided recommendations, and discuss your birthing desires as they evolve. Once active labor begins, I provide hands-on physical and emotional support throughout the duration of your birth via unmedicated comfort techniques, holistic materials, an encouraging feminine presence, and advocacy. We will have a postpartum visit as well.
I know what it takes to successfully birth outside of the hospital system! Let me show you.
*Contact for pricing and a free 30-minute consultation.

Breastfeeding Class (Virtual)
Healthy pregnancy - check! Birth classes, birth vision and plans, birth team - check again!
BUT! Did you prepare for breastfeeding? Establishing breastfeeding can be the most difficult hurdle of the perinatal period. 60% of mothers do not meet their breastfeeding goals.
Breastfeeding is natural, but it often doesn’t come naturally. It requires attention, consistency, and believe it or not - technique! Yes, it’s true.
*Register below for a private breastfeeding education session where we discuss everything from proper latch, to how to maintain a robust milk supply.
