Hello! Welcome to Intrinsic Birthing and congratulations on your upcoming birth! I'm so glad you have taken the time to research your birthing options in the Central Iowa area. You have already completed the most critical step of parenthood - knowing that you HAVE choices on this amazing journey, and that you have the right to exercise those choices! I am a CAPPA Certified Childbirth Educator and I am also a Labor Doula. As a note of interest, I personally attended Bradley Childbirth Classes during my own pregnancy.
Here is a quick summary of what Intrinsic Birthing is all about...
* I believe that as women we are born with an intrinsic wisdom regarding birth. That wisdom should be honored and respected.
*I believe birth is a natural process, not a medical event to be feared.
*I believe natural childbirth is the safest way to give birth for most women - but not all women.
*I believe families have the right to informed consent.
*I believe all forms of childbirth benefit from preparation and support - but natural childbirth requires it!!!

Women around the world deserve access to education that can not only make their birth experiences more rewarding, but can very well save their lives or the life of their newborn child. For this reason, a portion of all of Intrinsic Birthing's profits support CARE International, a humanitarian aid organization focusing on improving the lives of women and children around the world. Currently, I am working toward purchasing a virtual CARE Package which would equip a birthing center in the developing world with essential medical supplies and equipment to help ensure healthy deliveries!!! If you would like more information on how you can help, please contact me.
I am also a volunteer for Operation Special Delivery, which provides trained volunteer doulas for pregnant women whose husbands or partners have been severely injured or who have lost their lives due to the current war on terror, or who will be deployed or unable to attend the birth due to military reasons.

I am also a volunteer for Ruth Harbor, a Christ-Centered home serving young ladies facing an unplanned pregnancy. Learn more here!
