Childbirth Education leads to Better Birth Outcomes

Did you know Mary is a second-generation Lamaze Childbirth Educator? Her mother, Mary Philomena, after whom her business is named, was also a Lamaze Childbirth Educator. Mary is honored to carry forward this lineage of educating new families on what to expect during childbirth and the early postpartum period.

These are some benefits of childbirth education:

EDUCATION

Educating yourself about the childbirth process is crucial for making informed and confident decisions for you and your baby.

Knowledge of Options

Childbirth education classes inform parents about pain relief options, birthing positions, and methods.

Better Birth Outcomes

Research shows that childbirth education classes improve birth outcomes, increasing the likelihood of vaginal births, reducing the need for pain medication and interventions, and promoting breastfeeding and positive birth experiences.

BUILDING COMMUNITY

In-person childbirth education connects parents with local families who are expecting babies around the same time. It helps families build a community with other expectant parents and normalizes the birthing experience.

There are many benefits to childbirth education. Our main goal at Philomena Birth is to eliminate any fear or anxiety around childbirth and to build confidence, love, and excitement. We offer a rotating schedule of six classes every month. Sign up for one or all of them.
