General information

 

We chose the Active Birth model for childbirth support because it best suits what makes the most sense to us. During the childbearing year women have an opportunity for deep growth and transformation as their body changes and their lives change with this new experience.

What we do is to work with the challenges, upheaval and fears that often accompany this time of great change in order to help couples clear the space in their lives for this awesome process. Often what is most needed for them is to discover how to find and receive the support they need, both from family and from pregnancy and birth support people. This works best where there is an acceptance of the crucial role played by commitment to relationship with everyone involved. In other words, we ask that you hang in with us through the tough times, and we'll do the same.

We meet every Friday evening from 7:30 to 9:30 at the Family Life Center. 20 Elm St., Albany, NY 12202. Call us any time at 465-0241 or 449-5759.
