What you'll learn

Whether you choose the Two-Day or Seven-Week option, we cover the same evidence-based core curriculum designed around real-life birth and postpartum. Scroll below for topics we will cover.

How birth

works

The anatomy and physiology of labor (in a fun way — hello former elementary teacher vibes). We’ll cover the key things to understand about your body, the stages of birth, how hormones play a vital role, and what labor can actually look like in real life (hint: it’s nothing like the sensationalized birth scenes in popular shows and movies).

Why this course exists

Birth rarely unfolds exactly as expected. This out-of-hospital class helps you understand how birth works—and how to navigate it when things change or feel unsteady, so you can walk away feeling in control of your story and, most importantly, proud of yourself—regardless of how things go.

Who this course is for

This space is for every birthing person, regardless of your preferences or where you plan to deliver. Whether you are a first-time parent or a seasoned one seeking a fresh perspective, you belong here.

Lisa

"My partner and I took Harvest Moon Birth Services 7-week childbirth education class taught by Danielle Turner and learned so much throughout the process. We feel prepared and empowered for the upcoming birth of our baby. Danielle keeps the group small, to better connect with each couple and impart quality energy and attention on everyone in the room. If you are going to be a new parent, or just want a refresher on the huge changes that occur physiologically, mentally, and emotionally when another human enters your world, I highly recommend registering for this class with Harvest Moon!"

Rosemary

"After taking the 7-week course offered by this company, I felt significantly more prepared for the birth and care of my first born. Danielle was a wonderful teacher. Very caring, knowledgeable and fun. I highly recommend using her business if you are looking for more information about the birthing process and the initial days of being a parent, even if this is your second time having a child"

Sarah

"The course was wonderful. She had clear knowledge of the material. She offered information in place of opinion. She was able to teach about all aspects of the birth process without biases. This was important for me. I would absolutely recommend this course. I do wish I would have had time to do the seven week series, but the two day was what worked for us."
