Looking for a custom, personal and interactive childbirth class that focuses on natural and normal childbirth? Well, Full Moon’s Daughter has just that.
The first step is to give us a call (503.737.8834). We’ll talk about when you’re due, where you’re giving birth and what you want to learn. I’ll then email you an agenda based on that information. You email me back and let me know if you agree to the topics. We then schedule dates for me to come to your house.
To your home I bring childbirth movies, large posters, model newborns, pelvises and placentas and art supplies (if you want that). We start the session with a small check in and end with a special closing activity. Each session is 60 – 90 minutes and there is a lot of information passed and always time for questions. At all the sessions you will receive handouts, activities, feedback, homework and community resources.
Private childbirth classes are a great option for busy folks, those that have specific needs and moms who just don’t feel like leaving home one more time.
If you’re interested in learning more, feel free to call or email.
