Private Childbirth Prep Classes
We offer private childbirth classes for you and your support person, in the privacy of your own home.
Private childbirth classes can cover all the same topics as our group classes, but they have the added benefit of being tailored exactly to you and your family’s unique circumstances and needs.
You may want to cover everything or you might just want to focus on one topic that you have questions about. We can do that.
We bring all the teaching tools to your door so you can see how the uterus, pelvis, and baby interact during birth. You can touch various medical tools that you might need to make decisions about and work through some exercises to help you feel confident in your decision making skills. You will learn breathing techniques and your birth partner will learn comfort measures specific to each stage of labor.
To top it off, you will receive a Silver Falls Family Support Childbirth Prep workbook, so you have all your resources to practice your new skills on your own time between sessions.
Classes are interactive and hands-on!
Our 6-hour package is our most popular choice, because it allows enough time to get a really solid foundation for your upcoming birth. That said, classes can vary in length depending on your needs, but are typically 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours in total and can be split up into different sessions to accommodate your schedule.
Private childbirth classes are an excellent add-on to doula support!

A note from us to you about partner support
You might have an awesome, loving partner(s) who is/are fully invested in all things child rearing as equally as you are. Or you might be parenting on your own, navigating this pregnancy on your own, hoping to calm your own fears and embrace your own power as the strong birthing person that you are!
We stand with all parents and all families.
Bring your partner(s), bring your mom and dad, your grandma, a friend, a neighbor, or just yourself.
Be your own best support person. Or let us be your support person.
You belong here.
