What People Say About Karen's Workshops
I just love the holistic nature of this course. A must for parents, prospective parents, and all birth-care providers. I love the evidence-based nature of everything you presented. I also loved the discussion on child-initiated/led breastfeeding and the physiological benefits! –Participant, Madison, WI
Very good class. It was very succinct, clear, and interesting. Cord info is great, the overview of resuscitation was great, and the practice part was sufficiently long.
–Berkeley, CA
This was the first NRP class where I went from terror to a feeling that if/when I have to do [resuscitation], it is to help the baby – and that it might be welcome, not forced.
–Sue Baelen, San Francisco, CA
