Birthing Babies VA’s seminar is a three day total immersion experience aimed at teaching prenatal educators about using evidence to support their teaching, how to’s of teaching people of childbearing age, preparing for certification, and launching their childbirth education business.

In 2020, Birthing Babies VA moved all trainings online and we chose to keep them online because we love it! That means you will have resources to go back to through your certification journey. That's right, you keep the online materials for 3 years! The classes are a combination of prerecorded modules and assignments with LIVE meetups throughout the day. Live meet ups take place at 9am, 12pm, and 3pm Eastern Standard Time and last approximately 30 minutes, but longer if needed. The goal is to give you accountability and the opportunity to ask questions, share, and connect with your classmates.
