Austin Childbirth Class
| Private
Parris, a birth doula and mother of five, created this childbirth class based on years of attending births and witnessing firsthand what parents need to know before delivery day. What sets her class apart is its focus on helping you identify and comprehend the stages of labor and understand how to manage best through each.
Parris provides insights into primary newborn care and breastfeeding. She offers valuable tips to prepare for the "fourth trimester." In this way, she can help you make a smooth transition into parenthood.
Her curriculum covers a spectrum of essential topics, including how to properly use an epidural, how to breathe and use positioning for each stage of labor, preparing for the unexpected, and how to ready yourself and your home for labor and your hospital stay. Unlike the hospital birth class, which focuses heavily on the science of how birth happens and what to expect from the hospital, this class focuses on teaching you how to give birth and how your loved one can support you best during labor and immediately postpartum.
This comprehensive class typically takes four hours and is conducted in the comfort of your own home.
At Circle Birth, our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence you need for a positive childbirth experience.
