Classes & Coaching

Take a class with me via the SoShe app or you can book me directly for one-on-one coaching sessions. See more details below.

SoShe is a great option if you are looking for a comprehensive birth class that walks you through everything you need to know, offers accountability in practicing coping skills, and gives you access to evidence based support at your fingertips. I recommend this class if you prefer to be able to go back and review/practice material again and again (highly recommended!) You can also upgrade to get 1:1 coaching with me through the app. This is the best value of all the packages I offer. $600 for FIVE coaching sessions PLUS the comprehensive online birth class.

How to download & upgrade SoShe

1. Go to the App Store on your iPhone or iPad (Web and Android versions of the class will be available soon.)
2. Download SoShe for free and get access to 3 videos, articles galore, and the decision-supported birth plan builder
3. Upgrade by tapping on “profile” at the bottom right corner
4. Select “upgrade your plan” under My Account
5. Tap “Sign Up” under Birth Class, or Birth Class + Coaching
6. Use promo code EXTRA20JD at checkout for 20% off your purchase

Check out the app for free. It includes a birth plan builder tool which is super cool because it helps you decide what you want to include. The first 3 videos in the class are free, and if you want to upgrade you can do it via the website or inside the app. Use my discount code for 20% off: EXTRA20JD.

The SoShe Birth Class is valued at $300, and is currently on sale for $99. The full class + coaching (5 sessions) is currently $600.

1:1 Birth Prep Coaching

Birth Prep Coaching is for people who are ANYWHERE in their birthing journey. Here are some reasons you might need or want to hire me:

• Pre-pregnant and want hands on help with planning your ultimate birth experience (which involves healthful choices before and during early pregnancy)
• Newly pregnant and exploring your birth options (OB or midwife? Hospital or Home?)
• Pregnant again and want a better experience than last time (VBAC, unnecessary interventions, etc.)
• Running out of time/close to due date: don’t have time for a full childbirth class (you had every intention but time just got away from you!)
• Working on a birth plan: Need a thorough discussion about your options. What is necessary to include, what’s not. How to get staff to take it seriously, Which things can be decided on later, etc.
• Need comfort measures/coping techniques as you are heading into your birth experience (tried and true techniques used by birth pros)
• Need a better understanding of any aspect of labor, birth and postpartum (from basic birth fundamentals to “things they don’t tell you”)
• Need a refresher: it’s been a while!
• in a unique situation: You have a unique condition or situation surrounding your expected birth that you’d like some support in navigating.
• have a birth partner/support person who needs guidance on how to advocate for the birthing person (building bridges with hospital staff while being their eyes and ears).

All you need is a reliable internet connection and an internet-connected device.
