Beyond Birth

Childbirth Education

We teach the only comprehensive childbirth education class in the region. 

The information provided in this course is beneficial whether you plan to birth at home, a birth center, or any of the local hospitals. We strive to present unbiased information so you feel adequately informed when making decisions about your labor and birth. We are the only DONA-certified doulas teaching childbirth education in the Permian Basin and have an interactive curriculum that will make your class memorable and enjoyable! While the Lamaze Healthy Birth Practices are the foundation of our class, we use information from The Bradley Method and Husband-Coached Childbirth, as well as Birthing From Within. All of our classes will be held in a comfortable and intimate setting with a maximum of five couples per session. The small class size allows for questions, open discussion, and hands-on learning experiences. Childbirth education classes are a great place to build friendships with couples in the same season of life who share similar desires for their birth experience!

​

This class is taught by DONA-certified doulas and costs $200 per couple.

MotherhoodClasses

Our classes are open to all, no need to be a Birth Center client.  These classes are free for clients (use code FREECLIENT at checkout). Otherwise, the cost is $100 for you and your partner.
