How childbirth class helped me.

Many moments in life are uneventful. For example, I highly doubt the moment I took to choose the color of my socks this morning will lead to a meaningful change in my life. A few moments in life, however, are truly life-changing.  Childbirth class was such a life-changing event for me. Let me tell you why.
Childbirth class with Nichola changed me from an educated women to a confident expectant mother. Calm and collected, Nichola guided us through the overwhelming amount of information in a way that made sense. Each individual came to their own, different conclusion based on the same information. I was able to choose my own birth adventure, thanks in part to the knowledge and support of a wonderful childbirth educator.
My childbirth classmates have become some of my dearest friends and our children continue to grow and play together. We have shared the highs and lows of parenthood and leaned on each other for everything from babysitting and parenting advice to fun nights out sans kiddies!
Childbirth class ignited the passion in me to become a champion for women and children’s health. I knew from the moment I discussed the idea with Nichola that I would become a childbirth educator. This fall, after many months of preparation, I became just that.
So, thank you Nichola. Thank you for sharing a confident-boosting, career-changing, life-altering experience in my life. I will certainly never forget it.
