Nesting Hour

Let’s chat on zoom!

This is your time to ask questions, explore your options, and feel more informed about your pregnancy .

You’ll walk away with clarity, confidence, and a bundle of resources including tailored information and suggested questions to ask your healthcare provider.

Think of it as an empowering pause in your day to nest, plan, and prepare your way.

Here are some examples of topics you could explore during your Nesting Hour,

  • Understanding your maternity care options

  • Navigating antenatal appointments

  • Common tests and screenings explained

  • Induction of Labour

  • Vaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC)

  • Creating a birth plan

  • Stages of labour

  • Breast feeding basics and support

  • Managing your mental health during pregnancy and emotional recovery after birth

Here at Body Owned Birth, we use the Green Bottle sliding scale model to help make our sessions more accessible while still honouring the time, energy, and care that goes into this work.

With thanks to Alexis J. Cunningfolk for creating this model, we approach pricing with trust and fairness, acknowledging that everyone’s financial reality is different and all are welcome here.

Affordable pricing

Choose the price that fits your needs. No questions asked.

Diagram titled 'The Green Bottle' showing a sliding scale of personal financial experience with three bottles. The left green bottle represents high financial well-being, with positive statements about meeting basic needs, owning a home or car, employment, healthcare, savings, and ability to afford vacations. The middle bottle shows moderate financial stress, indicating some debt, employment, healthcare access, savings, and ability to buy new items or take vacations annually. The right bottle depicts financial hardship, with statements about food insecurity, limited or no savings, unemployment, and inability to afford vacations, highlighting the struggles of living with no expendable income.

For a sliding scale to work, it depends on honesty and a sense of shared responsibility.

I don’t ask for income proof, I trust that you’ll choose the rate that feels right for where you’re at.

Together we can make education about pregnancy and birth more accessible to everyone !
