Safe Passage

Natural Childbirth Series

An eight-week, ALACE-inspired course covering the physical and emotional aspects of pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding. The classes cover the following information:

Class One-Birth Today
Class Two-Pregnancy and Prenatal Care
Class Three-The Physiology of Birth
Class Four-Designing Your Birth
Class Five-Complications and Unexpected Outcomes
Class Six-The Postpartum Period and Your New Baby
Class Seven-Breastfeeding
Class Eight-Networking and Community Building 

Classes run weekly and are three hours long. Private classes can be arranged, but I encourage you to take a group class if possible for relationship-building purposes.

$150/couple includes a copy of The Complete Book of Pregnancy and Childbirth

Breastfeeding Class

Four-hour class on the nuts and bolts of breastfeeding. Once a quarter, these classes are given as a fundraiser for LLL, but private classes may be scheduled in between those times. Additionally, a slightly condensed version of this class is offered during week seven of the Natural Childbirth Series, and it is possible to join in on that week only.

$30/couple includes a copy of The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding

Refresher Course

Four-hour class for women and couples who have already experienced natural childbirth.  Includes information on siblings at birth and introducing a new baby to your family.

$40/couple

Homebirth Information Class

Three-hour class for women and couples experiencing their first homebirth. Covers the basics of what to expect at home and from your birth team. If this is your first natural birth, the Natural Childbirth Series is still highly recommended.
