Spinning Babies® recognizes that more than good techniques are needed to shift birth culture. As professionals, we deserve time to practice what we are going to bring back to our communities. Birth Skills Training offers a space to reflect, practice, and reshape birth culture. More than mastering techniques, it’s about bringing your values and wisdom to your work and communities.
Physiological birth is the body’s innate process for childbirth, and the neurobiological catalyst for deep and abiding attachment and bonding. Normal birth reveals itself in a wide range of normal variations. Physiological birth is not just avoiding intervention– we can understand the birthing body’s signs of function and wellbeing, and therefore, discern when interventions are necessary and life-saving. We promote simple restorations of normal birth function. We want to trust birth, and by understanding physiology better, we can trust again.
