As a 2011 affiliated Bradley Method® Instructor, I teach and endorse the following:
Pregnancy and birth are natural events in the course of a woman’s life. Though there are
many routes to pregnancy, our bodies are superbly designed to accomplish this miracle with
little more than good maternal nutrition and a healthy trust in our own strength and wisdom.
In generations past, this faith in our ability to grow a healthy baby and to give birth normally
was nurtured by the community of women surrounding the expectant mother. Unfortunately,
as a society, we’ve lost our connection with this womanly wisdom formerly passed down from
mother to mother.
For many women today, the entire process of pregnancy and birth is one of fear. Without the
wisdom of a supportive community to depend on, women are giving up their power and trust
to their care providers. As a result there is an overuse of technology, medication, and
intervention in the natural processes of pregnancy and birth, leading all too often to
dissatisfying experiences.
There is a better way. Let me help you learn to trust your body and prepare to birth your
way with classes in The Bradley Method® of Natural Childbirth.
