- Why Choose Independent Education?
- You only have one chance to birth this baby. You owe it to yourself to be as prepared as possible going into birth and the newborn stage. And that preparation starts with a solid education. Learning what your options are and how to stay low risk will give you more choices in labor. Birth is a process that can bring about an amazing sense of empowerment and joy. But it all begins with education!
