Journey to Parenthood: What They Say
“I highly enjoyed my Childbirth Class. Cara is very knowledgeable and very sweet. My husband and I were able to learn a lot from this class. This class answered a lot of my questions and made me feel less nervous about labor. Also, I participated in the Infant Care Class also hosted by Cara. This class was very helpful, too. I highly recommend. It taught me a lot about caring for an infant.”
“My husband and I took Cara’s birth class and I have recommended it to everyone I know since then! She was so thorough, informative and engaging. I’m a nurse and felt like I learned so much from the course! My husband, who knew nothing about childbirth before this, felt so empowered as a partner to be able to help me through the labor process. After this class he felt like he had a role to play, which was really special! He’s even been telling everyone that they should get a doula! lol We also used Cara’s services for placenta encapsulation, Cara was prompt and the process was easy. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Attending Cara’s birth class was an enlightening experience that left me and my husband feeling empowered and confident about the journey ahead! Cara has lots of expertise that was so apparent as she navigated through the information of pregnancy and childbirth, equipping us with knowledge and encouraging us along the way. The class covered a comprehensive array of topics and informed us of various comfort measures for labor. The approach was not only informative but also deeply reassuring, creating an environment where questions were welcomed and concerns were addressed with empathy and understanding. What set Cara’s class apart was her ability to instill confidence in each participant. Through practical tips, expert advice, and real-life acting (yes she mimicked what active labor would look like!) she enabled us to approach delivery with a newfound sense of assurance. Coming out of Cara’s class we had a newfound sense of confidence in ourselves and the journey ahead. I am grateful for the knowledge and support she provided, making what could have been a daunting experience feel so much more manageable. It’s a must-attend class for anyone embarking on the beautiful journey of parenthood! ”
“Cara’s Childbirth Class was a monumental pivot in not only my ability to proactively learn about labor and delivery but also my husband's ability to support me. This class allowed us to be able to learn together common processes that occur when you don't know what questions to ask, especially in a hospital setting. While unmedicated birth may not be the desired outcome for all, this class allowed us to have an assertive, knowledgable and positive birth experience in a hospital when the time came.”
“Cara was amazing! Her birth class was very informative and fun. I would recommend her to every expecting parent!”
“When my wife and I were pregnant with our first child we knew we had to do something to prepare so we looked at a couple different options and decided to take a birth class with Cara George. Cara was an excellent teacher and walked us through each step as part of her class. The pacing and attention to detail was great and we walked away feeling very prepared. When the time finally came we were able to put many of the pain management, and partner care tips into practice and had a wonderful birthing experience.”
“My husband and I took this class with Cara at the Addice Birthing Center and it was great! Super informative and helpful. I feel more confident going into natural labor now that we’ve taken the class. She gave my husband plenty to do to help me during labor. I highly recommend taking this class if you’re giving birth soon. Even if you plan on doing it medicated or at a hospital or home birth. She really goes over everything that might come up and she’s very friendly.”
“My husband and I attended Cara George's birth class. She is an excellent teacher. She provided so much helpful information to help us prepare for the birth of our first child. She gave practical tips and provided demonstrations of supportive measures for labor and birth. She has a calming presence and is great at connecting with class participants. I would highly recommend Cara!”
“Cara’s birthing class was so amazing and so informational for my husband and I! Highly recommend if you want to feel empowered for your birth!”
“Cara did an amazing job with my placenta! She made the process very convenient for me and my family following my birth. She was very communicative and quick! I noticed a huge difference from my first postpartum experience (no placenta pills) and my second postpartum (taking placenta pills from Selah birth services.) My mood, thoughts and temperament were much more peaceful while taking placenta pills vs more anxiety and mood swings when I did not. Very thankful that Cara made the placenta encapsulation process such a no brainer for me and made my postpartum experience more peaceful. Highly recommend!”
“Last September (2023), Cara George helped me by taking my placenta and making it into pill capsules I could take over the course of the first few weeks of my postpartum. She was incredibly easy to get in touch with and came over at a convenient time for me the day after I gave birth. Cara went above and beyond in asking if I wanted artwork made from the placenta, which is beautiful because I now have a picture of the organ that sustained my baby for 9 months. With my first child (2021), I did not know this service existed and I am so grateful to Cara for providing this service, as I believe taking the placenta capsules helped me regulate my hormones and helped me feel better faster than I would have without it. 5 out 5 stars!”
“Cara led such a great class - all the information she provided, and the extensive resource list she has in the follow up email is very much appreciated! Her positive and cheerful energy and spirit was so wonderful to be around, and I really appreciated her making all this information less scary and overwhelming, being a first time mother-to-be. She is very skilled at teaching these classes, and is a wonderful doula, I have no doubt! I also appreciate the neutrality in providing the information and creating so much openness for different preferences and views.”
