KAREN WALLACE & JEFF DEAN
We have had 9 natural beautiful Bradley® births, and every one of them was an incredible experience. When I was pregnant with our first baby, we took Bradley® classes together in New York City, where we lived at the time. Jeff learned how to be a confident, effective labor coach. We gained a deeper understanding of birth and baby care—and things we did not even realize we needed to know, from the stages of labor to breastfeeding, to the Brewer Pregnancy Diet, to how to avoid unnecessary interventions.
Teaching Bradley® classes is something we really enjoy. They are fun, interactive, and empowering for expectant couples. Jeff brings a bit of humor to the classes and draws from his experience as a father, husband, and coach.
After 20 years of teaching in-person classes in four locations—Connecticut, New Jersey, California, and North Carolina—we transitioned to teaching online nationwide. Now, we have couples attending from all over the United States. Couples can take our interactive classes from the comfort of their own homes—or wherever they are. Online Bradley® classes are so convenient. Over the years we have learned how to effectively convey information to expecting women and their partners so that they are prepared to give birth and know how to advocate for themselves if they need arises. Our classes include games, break-out rooms so you can interact with the other couples in your Bradley® series, positive birth stories, and ample opportunities to ask questions.
Our classes our appropriate for those planning hospital births, home births, and freestanding birth center births. We also provide information to VBAC moms, couples expecting twins, and parents who already have one or more children. Our Bradley® classes are unique because we team teach as a couple to couples. Jeff uses his experiences to teach men to be empowered, confident, knowledgeable labor coaches.
I gave birth to my first child at in my twenties and gave birth to my ninth child in my late forties. I have given birth in a hospital, a freestanding birth center, and at home. My most challenging births were my sixth and eighth babies.
