CHILDBIRTH EDUCATION

RN-founded and led, at Doulas of Austin, we believe in the power of education. We know that by providing expectant families with evidence-based information and support they’re better able to make informed decisions for themselves, their birth, and their baby.

We also know that birth is a highly individualized process, which is why we offer a Childbirth Education class that’s tailored to each of our client’s specific needs and preferences. 

No matter what type of birth you’re planning – hospital, home, medicated, unmedicated, vaginal, cesarean, with a support person or alone - our course equips you with the information and tools necessary to approach labor and navigate your birthing options with confidence.

“Chiminh was a calming presence who brought wisdom and knowledge as we prepared for a new and at times intimidating experience. She gave me confidence in myself, which allowed me to do just what I needed to when the time came.”
