Embrace Childbirth Classes

Picture

Instructor:
Deidre DeGrado, CPM


A good portion of what I love to do in my midwifery calling is teach . Whether that be in a prenatal appointment or in a classroom I consider it an honor to share what God has taught me about women, babies and our bodies.

When I have the opportunity to teach a child birth class the two things l am most passionate about collide; Jesus and Birth! So, sharing scripture and talking about babies being developed and born  are beyond exciting for me . I'm so humbled that God gives me the opportunity to have a class where I can share His Word and His design for childbirth.  
Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass. 
​
1 Thess 5:24.25
 Are you expecting a baby and interested in attending a childbirth class with a Biblical perspective? In this unique childbirth preparation course God’s Word is foundational as we study and learn about pregnancy and the birth process.

The class offers a comprehensive range of topics for all expectant couples. Topics include: prenatal care, nutrition, labor and delivery, breathing techniques, choices in childbirth, designing a birth plan, working with your doctor and/or midwife, and what to expect with a hospital or home delivery.

The central theme is directed towards aiding couples in their understanding of the God-given responsibility to be educated about the fundamentals of childbirth and to empower them to make wise choices regarding their pregnancy and birth.  The goal is to encourage couples to entrust this special time in their lives to the Lord and to anticipate, with joy, the arrival of God’s blessing. Our hope is that your relationship with the Lord and with each other will deepen and grow as He creates this precious new life.

Note: This class will be taught by Deidre DeGrado and Brandi Thorne although Brandi's bio is not listed here.

What People are Saying


 “Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever you do develop good judgment,”  Proverbs 4:7.  Embrace Childbirth Class did just that! It gave us information so we could make an informed choice about our birth and make the best decision for our entire family. It also went into how to care for our new bundle of joy once he arrived. Our favorite part of the class was at the very beginning where we were reminded and challenged to make our marriage come first no matter what changes in our lives. Didn’t the Lord make you one with your wife? In body and spirit you are his. And what does He want? Godly children from your union. So guard your heart; and remain loyal to the wife of your youth. Malachi 2:15
Joe and Lindsay Gilmore

Embrace Childbirth Class gave my husband and I the opportunity to see a glimpse of God’s plan for marriage and parenting. It also gave my husband the confidence to assist me and the tools I needed to feel prepared for the birth of our son. We would recommend it to anyone preparing for birth!
