Birthing Classes
Having a baby is a wonderful yet bewildering
experience. Most parents are excited about bringing their baby into
the world, but are also faced with many unfamiliar questions and
uncertainties. Parents who have already had a child have the dual task
of updating their knowledge while learning from their past birth
experience and setting new goals for the birth ahead.

"What I liked best about the class is that it has made us both
feel prepared and confident--me to give birth, and my husband that
he will be able to support me through this process."
~A mother-to-be
"Major thanks for this learning
opportunity. After each class I felt armed with info I was
previously not aware of."
~A father-to-be |

Our sunny classroom |
Through our exciting and interactive classes, Birth Roots Doula Collective Inc. will teach you to discover and draw upon
your own strengths, abilities, and capacity to give birth with
confidence. Our classes emphasize the uniqueness of each woman’s life
experience and how it impacts her labour and birthing process.
Our goal is for you to have the best birth you can,
however you define it.
Our teaching philosophy
is to tailor each class to parents’ unique needs and circumstances.
A typical series will cover topics such as:
-
The birth process
-
Building a pain-coping mindset
-
Medical interventions
-
Giving birth by Cesarean
-
Effective communication with your caregiver
-
Special instructions for fathers and birth
partners
-
Feeding baby & newborn care
Our classes are participation-oriented, which helps
parents understand the knowledge in the context of their unique lives.
As well, parents are taught to build a pain-coping mindset to
integrate into daily life, rather than “dust-off” for labour. Most
importantly, our classes are fun, engaging, and entertaining.
Birth Roots Doula Collective Inc. offers many
different Class Options, including a Six Week Series, a Week-End Series and Private Classes.
All of our classes include a free copy of Birth Journey: A
Navigational Guidebook.
