Navigating Your Birth: Secrets from a Doula

A 6-week childbirth series

Join a group of expecting parents as we dive into everything you can expect during your time at the hospital. Whether you are desiring an unmedicated birth, are stoked for the epidural, or aren’t really sure yet!

Having supported births as a doula for over 4 years, I offer a unique insight into what birth is really like, and how to successfully navigate birthing in a hospital setting. In this class you will learn the evidence-based information you need to know to make the best decisions for your birth. Plus, you will connect with other expecting parents, learn lessons from a doula, and hear real stories from real women.

Cameron is informed, compassionate, and organized, and she is clearly passionate about her work and mother/baby well being. She shared information, resources, and wisdom that you won't get from the doctor's office or online research
