Join us in a beautiful, relaxing space at The Zen Loft in Batavia for a holistically-minded and interactive childbirth education class. Errin Bald, experienced and knowledgeable doula and birth educator, will be sharing interesting and helpful information to better prepare you and your partner for your birth. The class will be tailored to those attending and will be relevant if you are birthing at a hospital, birth center or at home. This class can be taken at any stage in your pregnancy journey.

Topics covered include:
How the complex hormones like oxytocin + adrenaline affect labor
Ways you can support your body’s birth process before and during labor
Labor signs and the physiological stages of labor

Important movements and positions that can move baby lower in the pelvis
Coping with labor at the different stages

A portion of the class will be devoted to practicing breathwork and the various movements and labor positions so you and your partner are familiar and ready for the day labor begins. Dress comfortably! No need to bring anything aside from water, a snack and note-taking material if you would like. We will have handouts for you.
As a special gift, each couple will walk away with items for their birth & postpartum bag:
Nourishing herbal tea blend for pregnancy + postpartum
Labor comb to help manage labor sensations
First 48-hour postpartum meal guide
Discounts on private education classes with Errin
And more!
Schedule your class as soon as possible as space is limited! Errin will be reaching out to you ahead of the class to learn more about you and your upcoming birth. Please note: you do not have to be partnered to attend! Each birthing person can bring one support person, whether a partner, family member or friend.
