Coral is the owner of The Well-Rounded
Maternity Center, which provides natural childbirth education; doula
labor support; prenatal fitness and yoga classes; parenting support;
C-section & VBAC support, and postpartum depression support.
"I believe that childbirth is a normal,
instinctive process that integrates body, mind, and spirit. It is
not an illness requiring treatment or routine intervention. Women
planning on birthing in a hospital most often say that they fear losing
control of their birth experience. Yet, to labor most effectively,
it is this very control that they must surrender, allowing the natural
process to flow. They are able to let go when they have faith in their
own bodies, and in their caregivers. Women are capable of giving birth
naturally if they have the commitment, knowledge, and support to do
so."
Whether you are still unsure or you
know exactly what type of birth you desire, Coral is dedicated to
helping parents-to-be make the choices that are right for them. She
understands well the pros and cons of the decisions parents face regarding
birth place, care providers, and interventions.
Coral is the parent of three; the
first was born in a hospital, the second at an independent birth center,
and the third at home. Coral has a doctorate in health education,
and is certified as a Bradley Natural Childbirth Educator; both an
ICEA and DONA Doula, an ACE Prenatal Fitness/Yoga Instructor, and
a Stress Management Counselor and hypnotherapist. She has been a doula
and childbirth educator for over seven years and has attended over
160 births.
