Sovereign birth education

My sovereign birth education offering can be very in depth, just the basics, or somewhere between. I guide women and families for true physiologic birth. This is not comparable to any mainstream childbirth education programs.

Sovereign birth education is for:

- women and families who plan to freebirth* 

- women who're exploring various childbirth options

- women who plan in-system delivery and are just curious about all this

- birth workers who seek to understand the sovereign paradigm in birth.

I invite you to sign up at any point in your pregnancy or fertility journey, or at any point in your sovereignty journey.

Here's some things we cover in sovereign childbirth education:

* Deep dive into the truth of sovereign birth: spiritually, bio-psychologically, physiologically

* Clarify the difference between in-system and sovereign homebirth

* You, your family, and I get to know each other

* Clarify prenatal care options: wild pregnancy,** self testing, some in system tests 

* Clarify variations of normal on pregnancy, labor, birth, placenta birth, newborn appearance, and more

* Nutrition, and how what's best is unique to each person

* Untangle your dreams, fears, whatever else needs untangling 

* Birth story integration if you've birthed prior

* Go over the facts about hospital transfer 

* Create a postpartum plan

* Explore ways to return the power of MOTHERING TO MOTHERS.

All of sovereign birth education is included for my birthkeeper and midwife clients.

Option for me to be on call for virtual support during your birth is an add-on service, payable prior to labor, depending on availability.

Your offering, aka the fee is this: 

-$300 per session 

-$850 for 3 sessions

-$2100 for 8 sessions.

In person or virtual, ask how this works. For group meetings we can set up a package where each person/couple pays less than the 1:1 rate. 

The sessions are not timed, they're usually 2 to 2.5 hours. You can use the sessions starting prior to pregnancy and up to one year post birth. Venmo, Paypal, cash, or check prior to our first session. 

To connect with me, please email doulawoman@gmail.com  or sign up on the main page here for a discovery session. This free discovery session is for women who're already familiar with the concept of sovereignty.

Any woman may birth in sovereignty. This means "may birth," and not that anyone "should" do this.

You may have questions, been told "You cannot homebirth,"  been excluded from licensed midwife care, or need more information to see if sovereign birth is for you. We sort this out.

*To my knowledge, Jeannine Parvati-Baker coined the phrase "freebirth."

**To my knowledge, Yolande Clark coined the phrase "wild pregnancy."
