Natural Resources

My husband and I took our childbirth preparation class here and it was excellent. I loved the welcoming vibe and very knowledgeable and nice owner. After my son was born, I found the store to be a great place to stop by, hang out, brows books and chat. The new facilities are big and comfortable and the owner has a nice inventory.

We highly recommend the 6 week Childbirth Prep classes, as well as the Breastfeeding and Infant Care classes. We learned about childbirth processes through discussion, exercises, video and readings. Both Tracy Massillon and Michelle Welborne provided up-to-date information to best support parents in pregnancy, labor and birth. The book list and collation of readings were incredibly eye-opening. This education changed the way we approached our care providers, hospital and birth process.

I took the 6 week Childbirth Preparation with Tracy Massillion at Natural Resources. I can see the draw of an 8 hour crash course, but over the 6 weeks I was able to really get to know the wonderful teachers and parents in the class (something that would not have been possible in just an 8 hour class). I strongly encourage parents (I'm a single mom, so I brought a different close friend to the class with me each week) and single moms to consider taking the longer, more intensive and rewarding class sessions. There were many points during my labor when I thought about things I learned in the classes and I was glad to have that knowledge on my side. Enjoy!
