FOR GROUP & PRIVATE CLASS TEXT: +63920-905-2737
ONE ON ONE: Private Birth Class also available preferably for one whole day (or two half days) in the comfort of your home. Please prepare for lunch & for dinner if we extend (no additional charge for the class). For classes outside Metro Manila (example: Cavite, Laguna, Bulacan), it will be one whole day, example 10:00am-7:00pm (may extend an hour or two if necessary to cover all topics so please keep the whole day open). Additional charge of P2000. if venue is far from Pasig City & if outside Metro Manila. Out of town/country Birth Class is also possible/arrangeable with free board, lodging & transportation fare. Might be cheaper if you come to Manila.
OTHER AVAILABLE SERVICE: I'm your Doula Service" (or Professional Labor Coach) during your birth. I will be with you from Active labor until your baby is born. Please reserve now. Limited number of births a month.
Requirement: You should have been able to complete Birth Class. I would like to be with you in one of your visits with your OB, at least once, to discuss your birth plan. Acceptance fee of P6000. nonrefundable to be settled right after the doctor's visit. Some hospitals need permission for a second person/coach to be with the woman during her labor & birth, so you/we would need to acquire that from the hospital.
Important notice: Advice me, any time of the day, as soon as labor has started to allow me ample time to get ready & to meet up with you during Active Phase in the hospital. Since the time of your birth is unpredictable, I will try to proceed immediately as soon as possible. Just like your OB I too I have a partner/reliever I work with who is very caring & just as reliable who can be with you just in case I can not be there though it is not likely that this will happen.
CANDID PHOTO SHOTS: What better way to capture your wonderful birth experience & remember the first time you held & smelled your baby but through photographs? Capture your first family bonding experience. Lady photographer recommended by several OB's. Please visit her fabulous work: http://www.mystoryphotography.com.ph/
