I started out the class knowing what kind of birth I hoped to have, but fearing the pain and intensity.  Afterward, I feel calm, prepared and empowered, and am actually looking forward to giving birth!

Monica was both calming and encouraging. She provided a really helpful mix of information about birth physiology, emotions, and concrete pain-management techniques. The atmosphere is very supportive and Monica is truly non-judgmental, providing options that everyone can use in diverse birth experiences rather than suggesting there is a single right way to do things.
This class is a must!

Monica is a profoundly calming spirit and incredibly knowledgeable and supportive no matter what kind of birthing experience you want.
Highly, highly recommend!

The pregnancy seemed to be going really fast and felt overwhelming and scary at times. The Mindful Birthing class really helped put things in perspective, demystified the birthing process, and instilled in both my wife and I a confidence and comfort that we hadn't been able to gain through reading and talking to other moms. 

I can't express enough about how fantastic this class is, and would love to take it over and over again!

Absolutely a must if you are expecting. Monica is amazing, and it really feels good to be in a childbirth class that is rooted in evidence-based practices, support, and compassion.

This class gave me and my husband lots of useful tools. Afterward, we felt very well equipped to make choices that felt right for our family!

This course was the perfect blend of facts and information, hands-on learning, and internal work. I loved how comprehensive the material was, focusing not only on what happens in the body during birth but also what can happen in the mind and heart.
