Are You Expecting?

Informed Beginnings is the result of the collective dream of a group of experienced natural childbirth educators. We are a not-for-profit co-operative that allows members to pool resources and share great ideas, resulting in the most comprehensive, up-to-date childbirth classes available to parents-to-be.
Rather than basing our classes on one person's work or one specific method, implying that there's a "right way" (and therefore also a "wrong way") to give birth, InfoBe draws on the wisdom of many experts in the natural childbirth movement, and is a dynamic organization that combines the wisdom of many childbirth educators and doulas. We teach mothers how to really relax and work with their bodies, and we teach partners how to effectively provide emotional and physical support and to advocate when needed. We provide a broad range of proven, effective techniques for coping with labor naturally and healthfully, recognizing that every birth is unique and each mother will use what works for her.
