Relevant Feedback
Amanda was fabulous! Well educated and made the class fun, which we were happy about since it’s not easy to sit through a 4.5 hour class.
The birth class today was very informative. Amanda was very knowledgeable and made the class fun and personable! Would definitely come back for other classes.
I loved the class! I learned so much, but it was taught in such a great and casual way that the 4 and a half hours seemed to fly by. I look forward to the other classes!
Amanda hosted the birthing class, and she was absolutely phenomenal! So knowledgeable, kind and experienced. My husband and I learned so much about the stages of labor and how he can help support me throughout the birthing process. I feel so much more comfortable and informed. Thank you Amanda for being an incredible resource.
