About Kristin
Kristin has been interested in birth and babies for much of her life. When she was growing her own family, she learned everything she could about pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and newborn care – all while keeping the dream of teaching and supporting other new families in the back of her mind.
After a long career in the business world, Kristin was trained and certified as a Lamaze Childbirth Educator so she could fulfill her passion. Her goal is to help each family in her classes find their personal birth journey.
Whether a family opts for natural childbirth, surgical birth, or anything in between, Kristin believes the most important thing a childbirth educator does is support the family’s opportunity to choose what’s best for them.
Which is better: Taking childbirth video classes or in-person classes?
It all depends on your preferences. If your budget is tight, watch Kristin’s free classes on YouTube → and you will learn what you need to know to have the birth you want. But if you’d like a more interactive experience learning with other families and asking questions along the way, please sign up for in-person classes in Sacramento →. They’re worth every penny. You’ll be happy you did!
