Full Spectrum Childbirth Education

Offering culturally-humble, trauma-informed, and comprehensive childbirth education

Why?

Pregnancy can be overwhelming! Many people report feeing unclear about the options available to them in pregnancy and postpartum, and when they look for answers they end up getting unhelpful, unsolicited, and/or incorrect advice and information. 

These courses are taught through an advocacy lens, and is appropriate for anyone who is interested in exploring not only the options available to them as a pregnant person, but also the context surrounding the decisions they make about their care.

Classes are open to all birthing persons, including partnered or un-partnered, 2SLGBTQI+, and include the addition of a support person to attend with you.

What is Full Spectrum Education and Care?
