“Have met some incredible women with Birth Boot Camp and together with the training programs, I've become a doula and childbirth educator! So happy to now have the tools necessary to effectively assist expecting persons to have the birth they desire!”

“I recently became a certified birth boot camp instructor! It has been a really great exercise and I am so exciting to start teaching. For my training I took all the online birthing classes and I really enjoyed them. They are teach good true information that all moms and dads should have going into birth! Whether you know a little or a lot these will be a great addition to your knowledge.”

“Birth Boot Camp is so amazing! I attended their February training in 2021. I felt mostly prepared to start this journey before I attended the in-person training but when it was time to leave the training and start my business I knew I was ready! They are so hands on and help you to feel confident.”
