"My first BirthWorks Educator Workshop was truly transformational and challenged many ideas and thoughts that I previously had about birth. It has helped me develop more faith and confidence in birth and in women's bodies to birth as well as in myself to serve childbearing women and their families. Regardless of what method of childbirth you ascribe to or your ideas about birth, BirthWorks will be beneficial for anyone serving childbearing women."

“Do you remember holding the Birth Works workshop at my house? My daughter was just a baby at the time, a home birth after cesarean. That baby is now 17 and interested in reading about birth, although hopefully her first child is still several years in the future. I am buying your book, Birthing in the Spirit, for her- could you autograph it for her? Although I no longer teach, I carry BirthWorks in my heart. I recently attended the birth of my first grandchild and it all came back to me. I realized that it has always been with me, and that BirthWorks isn’t just about birth, it is about life. Thank you for that.”

We help women have birth experiences that bring joy for the rest of their lives! Teaching women about the labor/birth process is straightforward: the challenge is to help women believe they’re born already knowing how to give birth. Our classes are for every woman, with any birthing background, to discover wherever she feels safest giving birth.
