Professional Trainings and Workshops

 

For nurses and for Doulas

This workshop may be held as a private event for your unit or anyone may host as an open collaborative event the birth professionals in your area.

 

Labor Tools for Physiologic Birth:

Bringing Outside-of-the-Box thinking to the inside of the labor suite. Take a deep dive into the evidence based tools for the labor suite scenarios.

Experience lecture, role-play, and hands-on learning to better understanding of the biomechanics of labor progression, pelvic diameters, the role that maternal movement and positioning make on fetal position and station, what to do with asynclitic heads, posterior positions, moving the maternal body during medicated labors, protecting the physical body of the nurse/doula to reduce the risk of injury and thus, improving staff retention and SO. Much. More!

I have been to other workshops that were supposed to build my Labor ToolKit as a nurse and midwife, but THIS is the workshop where I finally understood the WHY behind the WHAT I was supposed to do. 100% recommend!

All workshops are facilitated by Emily Wannenburg, DN DM, CLC, HBCE, Adv Doula (DONA), 4TFM. Learn more about Emily here.

As a midwife for 45 years, there are few continuing education speakers and sessions that capture my deep listening from beginning to end. Emily Wannenburg not only brings excitement, expertise and energy to her presentations, but also a depth of information central to health-related needs of most pregnant and parenting moms — often never discussed in their healthcare. For anyone that has opportunity to spend time with Emily, you will learn more than imaginable.
