Welcome! Giving birth in New Orleans? Then you've come to the right place. I know my way around the birth community. If I can't answer your question, I bet I know someone who can! There are many options available for pregnancy, labor and birth in the New Orleans Metro area. Here you'll learn a little about birth, a little about me and a little about my hometown, too.

Class is in Session
On Monday, March 6, I began teaching a prenatal class series at the Pregnancy Testing Center in Gretna. The five-week course takes place each Monday evening on Lafayette Street and is a free service of the PTC. We are pleased to have Dr. Mompoint, OB/GYN and Dr. Bettencourt, Pediatrician, scheduled as guest speakers. If you have questions about the class, call the center at 504.227.9090.

Home Delivery
No, I'm not talking about babies born at home, although that's a good topic and a great idea!
Have you ever attended a class and felt uncomfortable with the formal classroom surroundings? Maybe you prefer one-on-one teaching and learn better that way. What about fitting classes into your schedule on the same night every week for 6-10 weeks? Did you opt out of taking classes for any of these reasons? Would you?
You now have an alternative. I'm opening up my services to include private Childbirth Preparation Classes done in your home on a flexible schedule. Interested? Email me at expectingnewlife@aol.com or call me at 504.453.2634 and we'll discuss the details.
I am taking new doula clients in 2006 and am also working towards a traditional childbirth preparation class (location may be Metairie) in the Spring. I'm considering resurrecting my weekend class that was supposed to happen in October, but was obviously cancelled due to Katrina.
Education and support during pregnancy go a very long way in making your birth the best experience it can be. Together we will make a great team! Contact me today.

Business Is Blooming
I'm happy to announce that Choices In Childbirth is open for business once again. Two couples have recently allowed me to be a part of their birth days and three more have hired me as their doula for upcoming dates.
My experiences at East Jeff and Ochsner post-Katrina have been encouraging, especially considering that they are among the few places where women can give birth in New Orleans these days. In both instances, the nursing staff was very supportive of my clients' goal of natural childbirth and did everything they could to help. Thank you to those special women!
If you are pregnant and would like professional support for your upcoming birth, be sure to contact me at 504.453.2634 to schedule an interview and learn more about how my doula services can make your birth a more satisfying experience.
