Looking for a childbirth method that works?


You found the right place.

The Bradley Method® offers evidence-based, experience-based, childbirth education, and has been the leader in teaching the principles of safe, natural childbirth to expectant parents for over 50 years.

To the right is my Zoom class schedule. After teaching for decades in person only, I found Zoom to be extremely effective, with many surprising and positive benefits for my students. It allows parents from anywhere in the U.S. join classes conveniently, while learning and practicing labor strategies right where you will begin labor - in your own home. 

Please note: Monday classes are Mountain Standard Time, and Wednesday classes are Central Time.

I am here to help you have the best birth possible, and will be giving you all the support you need via classes, phone, text and email throughout your pregnancy.
