“We spent 12 weeks in Alyssa’s Bradley class preparing for a drug-free labor and home birth. The curriculum is very thorough and focused on making sure you are able to apply the material (even during the most hormone filled hours of your life). There was homework every week, followed by in class learning and activities to ensure retention. We enjoyed sharing our prenatal journey with other couples and hearing other birth stories.
One of the things we really appreciated was that there were additional learnings aside from the birth experience. Alyssa went through some techniques that could be used to invert babies that were positioned “head up” late in the pregnancy, relaxation, nursing, teething, baby carrying, and more. She is a wealth of knowledge, candidly shares her own experiences, and is very well connected in the community. Her guidance in creating a birth plan (in case we had to go to the hospital instead of our planned homebirth) was invaluable… especially when we DID end up in the hospital when my water broke four weeks early. Alyssa was there with us as our doula as well and she was fantastic in guiding both of us. Even though we had studied hard, she still spotted things that could help labor progress. We highly recommend her class and her doula services and will be using her as our doula for future births as well!
Thank you Alyssa for all of your investment in families in our community!”
