As doulas, we often stress the importance of non-judgmental, unbiased support, but when it comes to childbirth education options, they are often sprinkled with judgmental undertones about birth and parenting, particularly when someone is wanting to have a birth or parenting experience that is not considered “natural”.  Many classes are notorious for inciting fear in tools commonly used in birth, provoking distrust in medical providers, and pushing personal agendas about parenting decisions such as epidurals, vaccinations, and circumcision.

We know that people make all kinds  of different birthing and parenting decisions, and at Peaceful Passages, we wanted to offer a childbirth education option that remained unbiased as the care we provide our doula clients.  Our classes needed to be accommodating for those who would have medical births and non medical births in the hospital, birth center, and at home.  For many families, it is hard to commit to a program that spans out over the course of 9-12 weeks,  so our program menu needed to have shorter options without leaving out important information.  It is with our  great pleasure that we announce our new childbirth education options to the public!  With the various options we have available, there is sure to be something for everyone.  We offer a 2 hour class, a 3 hour class, and our full series, a 9 hour course that meets once a week for 3 weeks.  

Especially unique to our program is how the classes are offered.  We offer group classes at our office location, private classes in your home at a time that works best for you,  virtual classes, and our semi private classes.  In a semi private class, you provide the space, and invite your other pregnant friends to join.  For being the host, and helping  get other couples registered for the class, you can receive a credit for the cost of the class or even get the lass complimentary!
