Birth is a Love Story; the story of how you and your baby will meet and fall in love for the first time. In our evidence-based classes we provide comprehensive education, support, and guidance as you prepare for the love of your life. Curtis Method families leave class empowered and prepared, both physically and emotionally, for any birth scenario.
Our goal is to facilitate a secure, joyful bond between parents and their new babies, and a positive birth experience can help smooth the transition from pregnancy to parenting. We believe that you should be able to walk away from your birth feeling empowered, respected, supported, and loved, no matter what path your journey takes.
