Charlotte's Premier Birth & Parenting Education Classes

While it’s true that parenthood doesn’t come with any instruction manual, you don’t have to completely “wing it” either. Our experienced and knowledgeable Charlotte, NC doula team will provide you with the education and support you need to confidently transition into the next phase of parenthood.

We offer comprehensive childbirth education classes, prenatal and postnatal consultations, labor and delivery support, postpartum care and more, so you can feel confident and prepared for your new role as a parent. Our doulas have been trained in a variety of areas, including nutrition, breastfeeding, parenting, sleep, and more, and are available to answer questions and provide guidance throughout your pregnancy and beyond.

Knowledge is power.
Power is confidence.
Confidence is peace.
