I've taken Bradley classes from Alyssa for my last two pregnancies. I think the best thing that
I got out of taking Bradley Method classes was that I became informed. It taught me to trust my body and
my instincts in birthing and in parenting. Even better than my natural birth, is that I am a better
parent now.

Learn to Give Birth Naturally!
The Bradley Method® of Natural Childbirth
If you are interested in a natural, healthy birth,
please contact ALYSSA BRAY 359-3159.
It's hard work
Learning, Preparing, and Birthing...
but thrilling beyond imagination to experience this MIRACLE!
The Bradley Method® is a beautiful way to have a baby!
As a Bradley® Instructor Alyssa wants you and your baby to have the best, safest and most rewarding birth experience possible. For that reason she teaches the following ideals in class:
- Natural Childbirth
- Active participation of the husband/partner as coach
- Excellent nutrition, the foundation of a healthy pregnancy
- Avoidance of drugs during pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding unless absolutely necessary
- Training "Early Bird" classes, followed by weekly classes starting in the 5th or 6th month, continuing until birth
- Relaxation and natural breathing
- "Tuning In" to your body
- Immediate and continuous contact with your new baby
- Breastfeeding, beginning at birth
- Consumerism and positive communication
- Parents taking responsibility for the safety of the birth place, procedures, attendants, and emergency back-up
- Parents prepared for unexpected situations such as an emergency childbirth, and cesarean section
These goals are possible for the vast majority of pregnant couples. Occasionally medical intervention is necessary and appreciated. Modern technology is compatible with natural childbirth. There is an appropriate time for intervention and an appropriate time to let nature take its natural course.
Educated parents have the responsibility to make these choices with input from many sources, including the birth team they have chosen. It is important to seek out care providers who have experience working with educated couples and will support their informed choices. This takes considerable effort and sometimes requires researching what is available locally or traveling great distances to seek the safest birth possible.
Your local Bradley(r) Instructor is a professional; trained to help pregnant couples obtain the birth experience they desire. These teachers have gone through intensive training and are required to re-affiliate each year. This ensures the highest educational standards.
