"Beth is a fantastic instructor. Very knowledgeable and explained things in a down-to-earth / easy-to-understand way. We learned so much this weekend and really grateful that such a great class was available!"
“It was everything I needed in a birth class! Beth was PHENOMENAL. My partner and I are very pleased with the class. My husband learned so much and we both feel very prepared for our natural birth.”
"The class was informative and beneficial, and it went by quickly. Both my partner and I feel prepared and ready to have the baby. The class alleviated much of our apprehension and nervousness.”
"It left me feeling excited and empowered. I loved the neutrality of the class and didn't feel like we were being forced into thinking a specific way about the "right" way to birth but rather have the unbiased information to think critically about what is best for our personal circumstances."
“It was very informative and also relaxed. It was nice that it didn't feel like we were sitting in a classroom just taking notes. It was very engaging and we really enjoyed being able to ask questions and practice the coping positions. We definitely recommend the weekend class to friends and family.”
"Very informative and not at all boring. Can't believe that most people go into this experience not knowing what we just learned!"
“I had a great time in the birthing class, it was educational and interesting and had some special interactive elements for the couples that were fun and useful! I think it's a good overview of what to expect and understand in the birth process.”
“Very informative, and helpful. Brought up acceptance around birthing aspects I did not want to accept. I loved making meaningful connections with my partner, and they were also given specific roles and responsibilities. Workbook was also great!!”
Birth is inherently somewhat unpredictable, and while you can’t dictate exactly how it will go, you can be better prepared to navigate the experience as it unfolds.
In partnership with Birthsmarter, Heart Tones founder Beth Hardy teaches unbiased, inclusive pregnancy + parenting classes. Regardless of your plans for your birth location, interventions, and pain management preferences, our classes are perfect for you. We cover all of your options in birth so you leave feeling prepared for however your birth unfolds.
We offer classes in 3 formats: a weekend intensive, a 3-weeknight series, and a 1-day express class. In all of our classes you will learn the Birthsmarter 3 Actions of Birth, the 5 Partner Responsibilities, and most importantly, you will learn how to think critically about your individual context and how to make decisions that are right for you during labor.
