"A La Carte" Childbirth & Postpartum Classes
Helping you prepare for one of the most significant events in your lives!
An event you will remember for a lifetime!!!

If I hire a doula, do I still need childbirth classes?
YES. And here's why: In order for a doula to support what you want, you first need to know what you want. Classes explain your options, as well as your rights, and teach decision-making skills so you can decide what’s important to YOU. BirthWise class participants enjoy small class sizes and individual attention . They are designed to provide you with the tools you need to meet your individual goals-whether that is for minimizing, postponing or avoiding medical interventions. You’ll get a deeper understanding of how the labor process works--what happens when it unfolds in a completely uninterrupted way, how your hormones and physiology are designed to support normal labor, and what risks/benefits/effects are associated with various labor interventions.
Childbirth will be a transformative event in your life -- and as we all know, transformation tends to happen OUTSIDE our COMFORT ZONE. Our classes can help you become better prepared to approach birth as an experience that builds self-confidence, enhances parent-child bonding, and deepens your relationship with your partner.
BirthWise in Birmingham also offers Postpartum Classes to help you feel better prepared for life after baby arrives. Take these classes as part of planning while you are pregnant, or bring your newborn with you to class!
