Savvy Birth Parent Workshop (Developed by Evidence Based Birth®) is a 3-hour parent-focused class all about advocacy in the birth setting.

Are you looking forward to having a baby, but worried about all the unknowns… like how do I know if my wishes will be respected? Will my birth plan be followed? Can I avoid a traumatic birth experience, if I had one before? The Savvy Birth Workshop for parents was developed by Evidence Based Birth® to give you and your partner the confidence and know-how you need to have a more positive, empowering experience in the birthing room. At the Savvy Birth Workshop, you’ll learn ways to communicate effectively with your doctor, midwife, and nurse. You will discover strategies for asking questions without seeming disrespectful and you’ll get the inside scoop on how to stack the odds in your favor of having a positive birth. Unlike other childbirth classes, we will help you avoid the typical assembly-line care with virtual “tickets!” These “tickets” are your secret advantage to coping with the unknowns of birth! At the workshop you’ll find out how you can use these tickets in the hospital or wherever you intend to give birth!I am excited to offer the Savvy Birth Workshop to parents in the Okanagan community. We believe that the knowledge you will gain from the Savvy Birth Workshop will leave you and your partner(s) inspired, hopeful, and excited about the upcoming birth of your baby… ready to approach the big day with a savvy swing in your step!This VIRTUAL Savvy Birth Workshop is taught by Anna Marie Gierach of Your Aligned BirthLearning Objective covered in the Workshop: <ul><li>Define evidence-based care </li><li>Discuss the availability and pros/cons of local birth options</li><li>Practice respectful ways to talk with your provider</li><li>Discuss how partners, doulas, and nurses can work together to provide labor support</li><li>Describe the benefits and limitations of birth plans</li><li>Discuss the human and legal rights of birthing persons</li></ul>*﻿*If you are a birth professional and would like to AUDIT the class - please email me at youralignedbirth@gmail.com.
