What Others Have Said

Amazing Course!!
By: hannah

I am so grateful to have found such a well rounded and easy to complete course. I feel so ready to be a Childbirth Educator and it is such a passion of mine I am incredibly grateful to have all this knowledge and education to help others have a wonderful and informed birth experience. The extra workshops were key in filling in the small gaps this course didn't cover like homebirth, vbac, breastfeeding and PMADs. Jenn and her team have done such a wonder job creating this class set up doable and fun. I have 2 Littles 1 and 3 year old and it was fun and easy to do while they were napping and playing. I even looked forward to my own "mommy study time" when the kids went to bed. Thank you for offering this course and helping others. You can really tell that Jenn has a passion and is giving back to the community by offering scholarships (I have been able to take advantage of that myself) and I am so very thankful. Also I can't wait to start on the Doula program as well! I am sure it will be just as incredible as this course is.

I absolutely loved this course, the flexibility and ease as being able to learn at your own pace was super helpful with my 2 young children. Jen, was super quick to respond to my questions. I can't wait to start my other classes as well; I highly recommend.

Throughout this course i was amazed by how addicting it was. The further i got through the course the more i wanted to know. I would highly recommend this to someone new.

Informative and convenient

This course truly enhanced my personal and professional life. The self-paced feature is ideal for a stay-at-home mom with minimal free time. I am forever grateful for Jenn and can’t wait to give back to the community to help others prepare for birth!
