Amy Murphy, CBE

Amy Brooks Murphy, AAHCC


Amy is a Child Birth Educator specializing in the Bradley Method®. She offers natural childbirth education and postpartum services both "Before and After the Birth."

 

"I became a natural childbirth educator because I have experienced first-hand that our bodies are designed to give birth naturally, spontaneously, and vaginally. I know that it is not enough to say you want a natural childbirth. You and your partner need to educate yourselves mentally, physically, and emotionally."
