What people are saying about this series:
"Your enthusiasm and years of obvious experience made it fun, kept our attention and made it a wonderful experience. I am so looking forward to giving birth, and feel much more at ease now, having had your class … I was especially happy to see how interested my husband, Brandon was. He wasn't at all bored or squeamish, and seemed to intently listen in hopes to be the best coach he can. I could tell you captured and held his attention on almost every subject, and that is a huge milestone! He told me after the class how excited you made him and now he can't wait not only to meet our little one, but to go through the process with me." – Emily
"My husband Eric and I were in the refresher course you held in December. I just wanted to let you know that we delivered our little girl last Friday, and it was the PERFECT natural VBAC! I just wanted to thank you because your words got me through.. Having a VBAC was the BEST thing I've ever done. You relieved a lot of anxiety I had about it, and you made me feel positive about my body's ability to deliver. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" - Kim
“I can’t imagine why we ever went to a hospital class. The time we spent in your classroom enlightened us and made us feel great about our birth. The videos were fantastic and really inspired us. We learned so much and Jay is doing a great job helping me relax into sleep every night. I think it helps him too… I am learning to listen to my instincts and take better care of myself before Alyssa comes.” – Dana
