Healthy Babies

The primary goals of the Bradley Method® are healthy mothers and healthy babies. The method holds that, in most circumstances, preventing unnecessary interventions is the best way to achieve that goal. The kind of pregnancy, labour, and birth our children experience has a profound and lifelong effect on their health, including their mental, emotional, and physical health. The Bradley Method® attempts to give babies the best possible start in life by teaching how to have a natural pregnancy and a natural childbirth.

Healthy Mothers

The Bradley Method® views birth as a natural process. It is our belief that most women with adequate preparation and support from a loving, supportive coach can naturally deliver their children. The Bradley Method® encourages mothers to prepare for birth with good nutrition, exercise, and education and trust their bodies during labour with the help of natural breathing and relaxation.

Healthy families

The Bradley Method® teaches women and their partners about exercise and nutrition so that they can get healthy during pregnancy and bring a healthier baby into the world. Bradley’s® approach also encourages women and their partners to seek information from their health practitioners - doctors and midwives - allowing them to make informed decisions about pregnancy and birth. Through preparation together, parents can create a stronger bond to each other and their child.
