Hello and Welcome!
My name is Leslie Sullivan and I recently became an Affliated Instructor of the Bradley Method®. I believe in this method and have witnessed the positive outcomes that come from those who have taken this course.
Every pregnancy and birth is unique and different. I believe that being empowered and educated about pregnancy, labor and birth, you can make your own decisions about how you want to birth and have the experience you desire. While I am an advocate for natural, unmedicated childbirth, I also understand that at times there are circumstances that are beyond our control. If you are informed about labor and birth, you can make the best decision for yourself and your baby.
In my classes I use a variety of teaching aids, hands on techniques and birth videos to prepare you for the best birthing experience you can have.
You will learn about:
- Nutrition
- Exercise
- Relaxation techniques for pain management
- The stages of labor and birth
- Postpartum Care
- Newborn Care
- Breastfeeding
- Baby Wearing and Soothing techniques
-and much much more!
