What is BirthWorks Childbirth Education like?

Birth is an emotional event. Therefore birth preparation needs to be experiential so that birthing parents walk away with an experience. With BirthWorks, you will get emotional and academic preparation for birth, that is both holistic and evidence-based. For example, we teach the Four Principles of Optimal Pelvic Positioning to help you move into gravity assisted positions in labor, making it a more positive experience.

Some of our focus areas include

  • Comfort measures for Labor and Birth
  • Philosophies of Childbirth, Exploring Belief Systems
  • Relaxation, Breath Awareness, Directed Breathing, Toning
  • Common Sense Nutrition
  • Energy Work and the Practice of Human Values
  • Physiology of Labor and Birth
  • Pelvic Bodywork, Identifying and practicing good positions for Labor and Birth
  • Risks and benefits of medical procedures
  • Obstetrical Analgesia and Anesthesia
  • Feelings, Grieving and Healing, Releasing Fears
  • Power of Positive Beliefs & Affirmations
  • Relationships with our mothers
  • Postpartum and Breastfeeding
  • Primal Health and Nurture Science

Talking about obstetrical drugs, medical procedures, and birth plans is straightforward. The challenge is to help women develop more trust and faith in their bodies.

This is the best childbirth education for you!

Our open-hearted childbirth class series, led by experienced BirthWorks Childbirth Educators, uplifts you and connects you to community! Right away, you learn BirthWorks is special — as you find trust and gain faith that your body and mind already know how to give birth. Through interactive discussions, short films, and small group experiential exercises, you find a safe place of laughter, joy and learning!


Ideally you attend during your first trimester, so sign-up as early as possible. You can register for one person or a couple – all moms in any birthing situation and all birth partners (fathers, wives, mothers, friends, aunts, etc) are welcome.
