"This approach is helping me feel I have a team and I’m not alone in my efforts. I’m so glad I decided to add this course to my birth package. It feels safer, less daunting and chaotic, to accompany people on their birth paths who are prepared and knowledgeable. I can’t thank you enough."

"I watched every module of this course and I can say that Intentional Birth 100% encompasses its name. This class series helps woman/pregnant people to understand, embrace and claim their birth power like no other curriculum I’ve ever seen before."

"I find that parents own their birth experience! There is no blame, and I am witnessing less trauma, absolutely! Another benefit is I attend births that are no longer 30, 40 or 50 hours of support: families help me come in when they are ready, but Intentional Birth has prepared them to really connect deeply with their birth partner. They are able to connect and create a wonderful bond!"

"The Intentional birth course completely changed my views about birth. Before the course, I was hoping for a VBAC in the hospital but had a lot of fear and honestly doubt in regards to my body’s ability to have a VBAC, and even though I loved the idea of a home birth, I thought it would be impossible for me. Working through the Intentional Birth course opened up eyes to not only the possibility of a home birth, but also gave me 100% confidence in my body’s ability to have a physiologic birth and make an informed decision for myself. Every single question or fear I had was addressed in the course. As I progressed through the course, my excitement and preparation for birth just continued to grow. By the end of the course, I knew that my body would do what it needed to do to have the VBAC I so badly wanted. I ended up transferring to the hospital after my home birth due to a hemorrhage. The knowledge I gained from the course allowed me to advocate for myself during my hospital stay. I knew exactly which interventions I wanted and didn’t want and felt the freedom and confidence to make the decisions that I felt were best for me. I would not have been able to have the empowering home birth I had without the Intentional Birth course."

Katie Osterlund

Mother

I would absolutely recommend it, without any hesitation. Intentional Birth helped me have a successful VBAC, with all my labor in my own home. It helped me make my own informed decisions and to stick to those - and to feel confident when they changed in the moment.

Holly Good

Mother

Truly appreciate the course and the webinars, they have given me so many tools to not only make informed decisions for myself but feel confident in them as I get barraged by everyone else who can't quite grasp the concept of giving birth without an epidural, much less out of the hospital.
