Class Details
- Classes are held at Northeast Christian Church on Brownsboro Road, just outside the Gene Synder in Louisville, KY (~12 miles from downtown Louisville, near the Summit Shopping Center)directions will be provided when you register.
- Class size averages 4-6 couples and will not exceed 10 couples.
- The charge is $120 for the 6 week series, a $20 deposit will confirm your enrollment, with the rest payable at the first class; other payment terms can be arranged.
- Bring 2+ pillows and a blanket to sit on. Wear comfortable clothes. I will provide drinks and snacks during the class.
- I am not currently taking doula clients. The good news is there are many good doulas in Louisville, so check with www.birthcarenetwork.com, call 5-6 doulas, interview 2-3 in person and choose the one who feels right for you! Average fees in Louisville are $350, but money should never be the reason to not have a doula if you want one! Most doulas will work on a sliding scale or payment plan.
- I am certified by Lamaze International (www.lamaze.org). I am also a certified doula (labor support professional) through DONA International (www.DONA.org) and have attended approximately 100 births. I was previously certified as a Bradley Method instructor and a Hypnobirthing instructor and incorporate techniques from both methods in my current classes.
