      Highly recommended. My husband and I took a 4 hour semi-private prenatal childbirth and infant care class with Stephanie yesterday. The class was excellent: well-organized, upbeat, clear, and managed to pack an amazing amount of information in to the time. Stephanie is clearly an expert in all aspects of before\/during\/after birth and she is also an extremely competent educator. The class was structured and fast-paced, but it was also conversational. With such a small class size, I felt comfortable asking questions and sharing concerns I definitely would not have among a larger group, and I particularly appreciated Stephanie\u2019s direct, confident replies. We took the class as a supplement to a childbirth class at the hospital and now I can\u2019t imagine feeling as well-prepared without Stephanie\u2019s class. She also emailed us several super helpful resources following the class and offered to remain available for follow up questions.<\/blockquote><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
