You’ve heard the stories ... birth can be crazy to say the least.
You’ve had friends tell you about scary things that can happen during birth. You’re understandably nervous that this might happen to you and your baby. You worry your partner won’t know what to do, or how to advocate for you. You want to be prepared so that your experience is as smooth as possible.
But, it’s hard to find clear, reliable information that you can trust.
- Your care providers are busy and usually have little time to answer all of your questions
- Hospital prenatal classes are generic and often don't consider your unique circumstances
- With the abundance of online information, it's hard to know where to start, let alone what's reliable and relevant to you
That’s where we come in.
Know Your Body, Own Your Birth combines a virtual, self-paced online program with in-person sessions that gets you completely prepared for birth.
What to expect in our program
Our prenatal program is eligible for coverage under your third party insurance as naturopathic and physiotherapy services. Available for residents of Ontario only.

What our patients say...
"I love how the information is laid out. It all makes a lot of sense to me and I can see how this will be useful in labour"
"... personable, knowledgeable, and makes you feel completely at ease. Not only did she help me prepare for Childbirth, but she also helped me recover well afterwards. My recovery was so much faster and more successful because of her knowledge and care."
"I had a lot of anxiety about labour but after going through all the information and learning the exercises, I actually feel confident about it now"
Know Your Body, Own Your Birth is best started in your second trimester, but can be done anytime prior to week 36 of pregnancy and be combined with a hospital class if you've already taken one.
Classes and consults take approximately 2 weeks to complete. You will receive immediate access to the self-paced online portion immediately upon registration.
