care providers:

WHY SHOULD YOU ENCOURAGE BIRTH EDUCATION FOR YOUR PATIENTS?

Better outcomes, fewer and less severe cases of PPD/PPA, fewer interventions, and higher trust and satisfaction with you!

In class, patients will create goals and gain knowledge that you may, or may not have time to walk them through with your busy caseload. Let DDBE come help your patients understand their options, their responsibilities, and what they can do to help achieve an outcome and experience they are satisfied with. Even a plan “C” birth can be amazing, if they are prepared. Fully comprehensive courses are available, or shorter classes and workshops. Linked below are a few studies, and samples of the Birth Boot Camp curriculum.
