Intuitive Birth’s Childbirth Education Class is unique in its approach to empowering parents. Rather than pushing an agenda about how birth should be—e.g. unmedicated or medicated, in a hospital/home/birth center, and so on—Intuitive Birth teaches expecting parents essential information to prepare them for having a baby, regardless of where and how they choose to give birth.

This class not only informs parents about the intricacies of childbirth: it also helps them discover the kind of birth they want. Ultimately, birth may take unexpected twists and turns that deviate from a birth plan, but the Intuitive Birth Childbirth Education Class is designed to help parents navigate the evolving process with confidence and essential information.
