The term "Childbirth Educators" refers to professionals who provide education, support and guidance to expectant parents during their pregnancy journey. These individuals may be certified childbirth educators, doulas or midwives, among others, who have specialized training in providing evidence-based information on the physiological aspects of labor and birth, as well as emotional and physical preparation for parenthood. They often offer classes that cover topics such as breastfeeding, newborn care, pain management techniques, and coping strategies during labor. The goal of childbirth educators is to empower expectant parents with knowledge and skills to make informed decisions about their birth experience, and to feel confident and prepared for the journey ahead.
