prenatal class/childbirth education
At Rebirth, it's our mission to help expectant parents become active participants in their birth experience. For you, the birthing mama, to be fully present and connected to your experience, trust your courage and strength, and make decisions that feel right for you. We are committed to helping you feel supported, loved, and proud of your birth experience, no matter how you bring your sweet babe into the world. We believe you are deserving of deep love and respect for the strength, courage, and wisdom it takes to bring a baby into the world.
We also aim to help partners feel confident in their role as a support person, and more importantly, feel connected to the experience as a proud partner and parent (not just a ‘coach’). Our class is structured In a comfortable and supportive setting, where participants will have the opportunity to explore, learn, and discuss with the instructor and one another.
This course is ideal for parents-to-be planning a hospital or home birth.
