Birth plan class
Type of class: in-person, private classes or group classes
What this class is about: A birth plan is a decision making guide. It can also help you find healthcare facilities and providers that align with the type of care you want. They are good for advocacy as well. Learn how to make a comprehensive and successful birth plan.
Class outline and curriculum:
Why take it: Everyone makes a birth plan. They may not call it that or write it out, but everyone makes decisions for their birth. Learn what decisions you will have to make and what options you have in a birth plan class.
Who it’s open to: This is open to pregnant women at any gestation.
What to wear: This is a lecture/discussion class. We won’t be doing any hands-on activities. Dress comfortably (no need to dress for flexibility).
What to bring: Students don’t need to bring anything. If they do have a birth plan written or drafted, they are welcome to bring that.
Where class is: This class is available in person in the Dayton, Ohio area. Service area is based on county. See the Classes I teach page for more information. All classes are in-home unless a student can host at their church or other public location (in public is preferred if able).
How long class is: 2-3 hours
When: All classes are by appointment only.
Cost: Private classes are $150. Group classes are $75.
