As a first time mother, I had no idea what labor and delivery was going to be like. Rachel really calmed my nerves on the day she came over and walked me through every detail of labor perfectly with answering every question my husband and I had. Rachel has the patience of a saint and made learning about something that was once scary to me so fun and interesting. On the day I gave birth, all I kept thinking about were the things Rachel taught me (such as terminology, techniques, etc.) which I found very comforting. Rachel’s experience, knowledge and fun/outgoing personality makes for the perfect birthing class and I would highly recommend her services to anyone.

My husband and I took Rachel's class as first time parents at 34 weeks pregnant. Her private class allowed us to be relaxed and ask any questions we had, putting us at ease for what lies ahead. Rachel is extremely knowledgeable and her demeanor about birth is empowering while still being realistic, which is exactly what I needed as a first time mom. We both came away with actionable strategies for birth and feel as though Rachel will be there for us through the entire process, as she continuously offers us support through her constant communication. I would (and have!) recommended Rachel to any first time mom.

My husband and I felt so prepared for any birth scenario thanks to Rachel's childbirth education class. Her class was extremely thorough yet palatable and she herself is a wealth of knowledge.

Rachel's class was a crucial part of me preparing for my first labor and delivery. It was very apparent that she had a lot of knowledge and experience, she was able to walk me through the step by step process of what I should expect. She answered any and all questions I had from what to do during labor, ways to advocate for myself, and things I should expect and be prepared for throughout the entire experience. There were times throughout my labor that I called back to specific things Rachel taught my partner and I. I gained knowledge and confidence from our session and I am incredibly grateful for that. Her class also was a really easy and comfortable way for my partner to become informed and prepared. Once my baby was born, Rachel was still so helpful. She checked in often and offered advice for postpartum and breastfeeding. I would highly recommend her to any first time expecting moms!

My husband and I took Rachel’s childbirth class when I was about 35 weeks pregnant with my son Oliver. As researched as I was, there were so many unknowns and questions as this was my first pregnancy and soon to be labor. Rachel gave us a thorough and easy to digest presentation and welcomed any and all questions! She always put my mind at ease and simplified everything for me. I texted and called her with anything that came up… she was there for me throughout the entire process and was a calming voice for me when I was laboring at home before I went to the hospital! Rachel radiates such positive energy which is so important for a mother and family during this special time!!! 10/10- Rachel is the BEST!

There are not enough words to thank Rachel for the incredibly informative and useful childbirth class she provided to my husband and me. As first time parents, we had no idea what to expect, especially during a worldwide and unprecedented pandemic, which did not make things any easier. Rachel immediately calmed us and brought each of us ease with her knowledge, professionalism, preparedness, and overall demeanor. Not only was the class helpful, she delivered it in a way that made it fun and enjoyable for the both of us. She went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable asking countless questions, which was really important to us. I also had limited knowledge about breastfeeding, and was honestly nervous to try it out. Rachel also helped me feel comfortable in that area, and breastfeeding ended up being a beautiful experience for myself and my daughter. We were truly blown away by Rachel’s knowledge base in the subject area and felt confident going into delivery when it was time. We can’t recommend Rachel enough as an instructor. Please take her class! You will be so happy that you did. THANK YOU RACHEL!

This class is thorough yet very efficient - the best combination! It takes about 3 hours to cover topics that other courses cover in multiple hour long sessions.

Rachel is a clear expert, and covers the topics in a way that is easy to understand. Additionally, Rachel made us feel extremely comfortable to ask any and all questions around these intimate and awkward topics.

Could not recommend Rachel and her course more. We feel as prepared as possible to have our first baby and go through the crazy child birthing experience!
