Class information
A complete series of Bradley Method classes consists of one 2-hour class a week for 12 weeks. These classes cover childbirth education, coach training, pregnancy nutrition, pregnancy exercises, relaxation training, labor rehearsals from class 5, breastfeeding, postpartum preparation, and much more. Videos are shown in 8 of my 12 classes and all of my students have access to my lending library of books and videos.
The book Natural Childbirth the Bradley Way by Susan McCutcheon is required for my classes. It is available through Books A Million in Lake Charles, or it may be purchased new or used at amazon.com.
I encourage my students to have an assistant coach. An assistant coach supports the coach during labor and delivery. The couple should feel comfortable and work well with the person they choose. Assistant coaches are expected to attend most if not all of The Bradley Method® classes with the couple at no additional charge.
I charge $300 for a complete series of Bradley Method classes. The first $25 (supply fee) must be received by class 1. The remaining balance of $275 may be paid in full by the first class, or may be paid on a payment schedule if preferred. Trained couples are encouraged to attend the subsequent series (if available) at no additional charge until their baby is born. Any past students of mine who would like to take a series of classes as a refresher course with a new pregnancy can do so for a discounted price of $150 with the same $25 supply fee due by class 1 and balance payment options as stated above. A $20 discount on the remaining balance will be given to a couple for referring another couple when they all take the same scheduled series of classes.
To insure placement in a series of Bradley Method classes, please register by your 5th month of pregnancy - 6th month at the latest.
Classes are scheduled to begin according to student interest. Class times are adjusted to accommodate work and school schedules. Holidays are considered, and classes are worked around these days for family convenience.
