“ Just what I was hoping for...knowledge, confidence, education, faith in myself and my husband - I don't think I would change anything about the class. She makes you feel that childbirth is something you can handle and get through. It's a great class which covers all the bases, and comforts your biggest concerns and fears. ”

– Lauren Ryan, March 2000
