‘Partner be the doula’

private childbirth preparation class

This package includes five hours of one-on-one childbirth preparation and unlimited prenatal and postpartum contact via email as well as the possibility of an upgrade to the ghost doula services package at anytime.

This package offers in person education where we will address your concerns and follow your own pace privately, or in a group setting.

In this class you will know what truly expect from the process of labor and postpartum. The goal is to prepare you for the normal typical scenarios and their options so you can feel empowered to go to the route that feels right to you rather than the one that someone else suggests to you. You will learn the difference between a suggestion and a medical advice. You will learn techniques that will help you to truly be a part of the decision making.

We will cover childbirth procedures and options, mostly from the emotional stand point so you don’t feel overwhelmed with all the risks x benefits which may just create stress, guilt and doubt in the system you are trusting to birth in. The goal is that the information from this class will empower you enough to follow your instincts, and chances are that your instincts combine with information will guide you to the decision or route that will help you to have a positive experience. Another goal is also to make an unfamiliar process be a little familiar once you are going through it. We will practice techniques that will help women to cope with the discomforts of labor and improve such discomforts, as well as help partners identify labor patterns and the ideal positions and coping mechanisms for such labor pattern. The classes are equally focus on the partners, if not more, so they can have the confidence to be the primary support person during labor.

We will talk about what to expect not only from labor/birth but also from the postpartum period, the real deal, so while you are in it you don’t feel that you are the first human being going through such thing. I wont just help you to understand this new and temporary reality but how to possibly deal with this life transition in ways to make it more of a positive experience.
