8 trees are being removed from Isham Alley (the area behind the three residential buildings on Isham St. west of Broadway) because they are partially over the pathway.

A couple of flyers I spotted from around the neighborhood today:

The manufacturer of that dangerous looking tongue slide in Indian Road Playground has recalled it for… fall hazards. Shocker…

It has been wrapped with caution tape and a keep off sign was attached.

***Announcing New Bradley Class Dates! AND A NEW LOCATION!***

Sunday, February 12th, 4:30-7:30 pm, in Inwood

Saturday, March 10th, 4:00-7:00 pm, MindBodySoula Yoga in Washington Heights

Unless otherwise noted, these series dates will be the first foray teaching at MindBodySoul Yoga, an amazing community driven yoga studio founded and directed by a personal friend and past client of mine, Alyssa Snow. Class includes a binder of handouts, a copy of Susan McCutcheon’s Natural Birth the Bradley Way, and access to my ever growing library including Dr. Robert Bradley’s Husband Coached Childbirth. It runs consecutive Saturdays, and make-ups are included, at a separate location.

I feel The Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth is by far the most comprehensive childbirth course available, covering a wide ranges of topics, including:

Nutrition, Exercises / Positions, and Relaxation
Anatomy & Physiology of Birth
Father / Coaches Role: Obstacles, Challenges, & Techniques
Massage
First and Second Stage Labor Techniques: Labor Rehearsals / Coaching Keys & Tools
Planning Your Birth
Variations & Complications, including Cesarean Birth
Postpartum Preparation (for mom and family)
Immediate Post-Birth Discussion (includes newborn procedures, cord clamping, skin-to-skin, and breastfeeding)
Newborn Care, including holds, colic tips, and early sleep tips.
As a Certified Lactation Counselor, my course also includes a session on Breastfeeding Basics and when possible, a Babywearing Introduction, by our very own Caprice Corona of The Art of Babywearing.

Couples unsure of the different philosophies of childbirth or not yet ready to commit their time to a full series are encouraged to come just to meet me and learn more about the Bradley classes in the first session, before making a commitment. I am also happy to recommend other independent childbirth courses as the more educated we are about our options the better choices we can make!

Please let me know if you have any questions or need any materials to pass along.

Here’s to Happy Birth-days!
