Birth Boot Camp is a nationally recognized Child Birth Education and Doula Certification organization. I am certified as an instructor as well as a doula. Birth Boot Camp offers a variety of classes including; 10 session Comprehensive Class, 6 Week Hospital Birth Class, 4 Week Out of Hospital Birth Class, 2 Session Reboot Class, Bringing Home a new Recruit, Food and Fitness, Comfort Measures, and Sibling Prep.

Private Class

If you desire a live 10 week class yet your schedule does not fit my class schedule, (if my schedule permits) I offer private class taught in your home
Contact me for more information if interested in this option.
*If you find another couple to take this class with you I will adjust the price.

Birth Boot Camp for Siblings

If you are considering having big brother or big sister at your birth this is a wonderful class to begin preparing them and help you know how to prepare siblings for the sights and sounds and miracle of birth. This class is a onetime 1-3 hr class (depending on age and focus of children). I teach this as a private class in your home.  $45/family
You can also purchase this workbook on your own and do a self taught class. Go to HERE to order your sibling prep workbook for only $15.95

Reboot Childbrith Class 

Refresher Course: I offer this class for those who have given birth naturally but would like to refresh your knowledge and get ready for this birth.  If you have taken Birth Boot Camp before (weather from me, online or another instructor) you will get one 2-3 hour personal class at a convenient time for you either at my home or in your own home.  $65
If you have had a natural birth but have never taken Birth Boot Camp I teach 2 classes (each 2-3 hrs) $100
​*These refresher courses are not condensed version of Birth Boot Camp. The Refresher class includes a comprehensive workbook with relaxation exercises.   If you have not had a natural birth please enroll in a full course.

On-line Classes

Birth Boot Camp offers online classes in addition to live classes. A live class is always preferred over the online option. However, if your schedule is just too hectic to accommodate a live class OR you live too far away, but would still love to have the amazing Birth Boot Camp education this is a great option!
