Spinning Babies Education
Comfort, Connection & Physiology
As a Certified Spinning Babies® Parent Educator, I will introduce you to the amazing world of Spinning Babies! I will use my skills as a yoga instructor and birth doula to explore opportunities for you to connect with your body and baby during pregnancy to ease discomforts and work towards creating an easier birth by learning about fetal positioning. You will experience what it means to use, “physiology before force,” and feel confident and ready to have yourself, your partner and your baby be an active participant throughout labor and birth.

“I am so grateful to have had Erin as my doula through my first birthing experience. From day one, she provided us with so many resources so I didn't have to fall down the rabbit hole of the internet. I knew I could trust in full what she gave to us, and every resource was amazing.” – Anya
