“My partner and I are so glad we took Ashley and Jill's Birth to Baby course. We learned so much that helped us prepare for birth, labor, delivery, and taking care of a newborn. There was so much I didn't know beforehand, and having a better idea of what to expect was so useful. It was especially great that they have hands-on activities like practicing labor positions or things like swaddling a baby. I felt like this class was so much better than if we'd taken one online. It was also nice to meet other couples in the same stage of life, and see how other people are preparing and what questions they ask. Ashley and Jill answered any questions people had, and were clearly knowledgeable about so many different scenarios. I feel like our experience of labor and birth was definitely improved because we'd taken this course, and I'd recommend it to anyone pregnant.”

“This birth class was extremely helpful! Jill and Ashley are so friendly and a wealth of knowledge. Learning about the birth process and practicing labor positions & coping techniques helped prepare us for our birth. Plus, it was fun to take the class with other couples. Everyone had a different vision for their birth, which fostered an environment for great discussions (which you can’t get from reading a book). My husband felt the class was really helpful too and it helped him be an active partner during our birth. We highly recommend this class!"

“This birthing course really prepared me every possible outcome. They helped me create a back up birthing plan, which I needed. Though no one wants to think about the ‘what if’s’ in life… when having a baby it is so necessary. If I hadn’t taken this course, I would have not been prepared for how my labor went and would not have known how to make a proper informed birthing plan for myself. I would recommend this course to anyone who is a first time parent!”
