What Prep4Partner™ Class Participants Have to Say
“When I was pregnant with my second baby, I was planning for a VBAC and hoping to go without an epidural. As a midwife, I felt confident about birth itself, but I also knew that if my husband wasn’t prepared, it could throw the whole experience off.
That’s why we decided to try Prep4Partner, and we are so glad that we did. It completely shifted how we approached birth. Instead of feeling like he was just along for the ride, my husband actually knew how to support me - physically, emotionally, all of it. He wasn’t guessing or waiting for someone to tell him what to do. He was present and helpful in a way that really mattered.
It turned labor into something we did together, and that made all the difference. If you’re even thinking about preparing your partner for labor, this course is 100 percent worth it. It gave us the tools, confidence, and connection we needed, and I’d recommend it to anyone.”
