How it works
Our Evidence Based Birth® classes use a flipped classroom model—a modern, proven teaching method designed to give you more support, more confidence, and better learning outcomes.
Instead of spending class time listening to long lectures, families review short, easy-to-understand lessons at home before class. These lessons include videos and readings based on the latest research on pregnancy, birth, and postpartum care.
Then, when we meet together, class time is used for what matters most:
Asking questions
Practicing comfort measures and coping techniques
Working through real-life scenarios
Building confidence through discussion and hands-on learning
Connecting with your instructor and other parents
This approach allows you to come to class prepared, so you can dive deeper into topics, clarify what matters most to you, and apply the research directly to your own birth plans.
