Why Lamaze, as opposed to another childbirth education class?
There are a lot of choices when it comes to childbirth education - you can take a hospital class, a Bradley Method class, Hypnobirthing or Hypnobabies, and more.
So, why do I choose to teach Lamaze, and why might a parent choose to take a class with a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator?
Lamaze is so much more than the breathing techniques we are known for. Lamaze promotes six healthy birth practices, and encourages a safe approach to pregnancy, childbirth and early parenting practices. Knowing that pregnancy and childbirth are demanding on a woman’s body and mind, Lamaze serves as a resource for information about what to expect and what choices are available during the childbearing years. This helps to simplify and clarify the childbirth process and alleviate fears. Most importantly, it helps women feel more informed and prepared for achieving a safe and healthy pregnancy, birth and start to parenting.

Every pregnant woman wants a healthy baby, but routine maternity care practices may actually make it harder to have a safe and healthy birth. There are a number of interventions that seem like they make childbirth easier, but could have unintended consequences and potentially make birth more difficult and less safe. Expectant mothers may have to push for the care and overall birth experience they want. Routine care may not be designed for a mom’s and baby’s unique needs. Pregnant women may also feel pressure from family or friends to speed up or schedule the baby’s birth, or agree to other interventions.
