Bradley Method® classes are 12 weeks long. Classes are held for 2 hours each week and are located in Hudson, just a few miles south of Cedar Falls/Waterloo. Bradley Method® classes are one of the most extensive childbirth education courses offered and cover a wide range of topics both about labor and birth, but also about the postpartum period, and life with a newborn. Classes are team-taught by myself and my husband, Paul. Having Paul in classes offers a unique perspective for partners, and invites them to participate in classes -- and in the birth.
87% of Bradley Method® students, achieve spontaneous, medication-free births.
In Bradley® class we will cover:
*the natural processes of labor
*relaxation as a means of pain management
*active coaching by the partner
*excellent nutrition and pregnancy exercise
*informed consent
*newborn and postpartum care
*breastfeeding
*and much more!

We also feel that it's important to introduce you to a variety of resources that the Cedar Valley has to offer.
Because of this, we have many guest speakers join us for classes. We want to connect you to resources
so that when you have your baby, you're already tapped in to a community of support.
Learn more about:
*Midwifery
*Chiropractic care for pregnancy and newborns
*Postpartum mood disorders
*Breastfeeding
*Doula care
*Placenta encapsulation
*AND -- we will have several past Bradley couples
come to share their birth stories with you!
"Bradley® classes are the best birth classes when you're preparing to give birth.
Whether you are having a home or hospital birth, midwife or an OB, doula or no doula, these classes
are hands down the best birth prep tool I've seen. I took classes with Made to Birth when I was
pregnant with my first and I recommend them to all of my doula clients." ~Bethany
