Classes taught by someone who
does this work every day
The best classes are taught by instructors who are not just curriculum-trained — they are actively practicing in the field. Every class at Birthstone Women's Wellness is taught by Tayna Chessman, California Licensed Midwife and IBCLC candidate, who brings real clinical experience to every topic covered in the classroom.
Our classes are practical, evidence-based, and designed for real families living real lives. No fluff, no fear-mongering, no outdated information. Just the knowledge you actually need to enter birth and early parenthood feeling prepared, confident, and equipped for whatever comes your way.
