Class Content


My class is essentially a pregnancy class, birthing class, breastfeeding class and newborn class all in one, saving you time and money. I’m not employed by any hospital, doctor, insurance company, or midwife. I am employed by you, and my goal is to meet your specific needs!

Classes are kept small so they can be specifically tailored to fit your pregnancy needs. Small classes ensure active participation and produce more successful results. Studies show that small class sizes are most important when the application of knowledge is the concentration. I strive to keep class sizes limited to 6 couples for optimal learning.

This class will help prepare you to have the birth of your choice. Joy Filled Birth classes are a 12 week series, designed for the expectant mom and her partner. Twelve weeks may seem like a lot, but this length allows time for physical preparation, relaxation practice, labor rehearsal, development of confidence and allows time to prepare for the arrival of your little one. Statistically, couples who take a 12 week series are more likely to give birth naturally.

Class topics include:


  • Exercise
  • Nutrition
  • Comfort in Pregnancy
  • Relaxation Techniques
  • Father’s Role: Coaching
  • Childbirth Basics-Labor & Birth
  • Labor Positions
  • Giving Informed Consent
  • Cesarean Sections
  • Breastfeeding
  • Newborn Care
  • Postpartum Care
