Looking for a comprehensive childbirth class that combines experienced mentorship with the convenience of learning online from anywhere?

In my practice as a doula, it is my goal to ensure that families are well prepared to enter confidently into their own unique experience of childbirth and the journey of parenthood. I feel strongly that parents deserve quality information, tools and support that allow them to make empowered decisions every step of the way. The Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth Class is perfectly aligned with this goal. Since becoming an EBB Instructor in 2019, I’ve been honored to share this class with hundreds of expecting parents, and I’d love to have you join in on an upcoming session!

This Evidence Based Birth® Childbirth Class is taught by Sandra Crawford, certified DONA doula, experienced Evidence Based Birth® Instructor, and certified lactation counselor.

– EBB Childbirth Class Student August 2020

“The walkthrough of labor was extremely helpful today. We both feel, overall, much more prepared and empowered. I thought labor and delivery would just be a horrific experience to get through, but now I’m actually looking forward to it! Thank you so much!!!!”
