Holistic Childbirth Preparation

You Can Birth prenatal childbirth classes and doula services offer a nurturing and positive foundation for your family through pregnancy and birth.  Prepared prenatal childbirth classes follow the Birthing from Within® model and are guided by an understanding of the simplicity of birth amid the complexity of our medical system.  Classes offer you the space to explore your hopes and fears, your inner resources, and cultivate an intuition and confidence that will serve you in labor and parenting for years to come.

You gain strength, courage and confidence by
every experience in which you stop to look fear in the face.  
You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
                                                --Eleanor Roosevelt

Asking Questions

Asking questions is a natural part of prenatal childbirth preparation.  Childbirth is a rite of passage, a journey.  And as with most journeys, you most likely have questions about  the 5 W’s--Who What Where When and Why - and How.

What will labor be like?

What will labor be like?  Who will help me?  Where is the best place to give birth?  When do I need to call my birth attendant or doula?  Why do people keep telling me to “just get the epidural”?    

How will I get through labor?

Many parents also question How?  How will I get through labor?  How will I handle it if my labor is different from my hopes? How will I act in labor?  How will I know the right thing to do?  How will I help my baby and myself?  How do I know if I know enough or myself enough? 

Finding Answers

Some questions can be answered by reading books and researching prenatal, pregnancy and childbirth information online.  Other answers come from searching within.  You Can Birth prenatal childbirth classes offer you the guidance and tools you need for the inner preparation for birth alongside the practical information.  Birthing From Within® prenatal childbirth classes meet the needs of parents whether they plan to birth at home, hospital or birthing center.  Content is tailored to the interests of class participants. 


As in all of life, childbirth and parenting challenges are expected and normal, and an opportunity for Soul growth.   Reduce suffering and increase your confidence to handle whatever comes your way by learning about birth as a rite of passage and practicing the coping-practices taught in each class.
