My wife and I took Amanda's private virtual prenatal class on Zoom. We enjoyed the class so much - it is very educational and Amanda's teaching style is very engaging. We were able to ask all our questions (from labour, to birth, to the newborn stage) and Amanda provided clear answers. She has a medical background so was able to educate us on the science part (which is fascinating) and she is also a mom so she gave such great practical tips. If you are hesitant in taking her class online, don't be! My wife and I have come away from the class feeling ready and excited for the birth process. Thank you Amanda!

I didn't think I needed to attend a pre natal course as I've spent a lot of time around babies. But my husband and I booked a weekend course at Samara Birth Services and it was the best thing we did. We learnt so much (it's totally different when you're having your own!). Amanda is lovely, friendly and very knowledgeable. It was reassuring to know she is a nurse and worked on the maternity ward at St Paul's Hospital. I strongly recommend her courses.
My husband and I did the group weekend class. It was nice to meet other would-be parents but it was a small group of 4 couples which was fantastic. We were dreading going to class for 6 hours each day but it was totally worth it. Since we are first time parents and have no family in the city, both of us left the class much more informed and less scared about the process and what we should be doing. Amanda was amazing in answering all our questions and she gave everyone individual attention. I highly recommend these classes.
We were in the weekend prenatal class a few weeks back. The class is 6 hours long per day. Our class size was only four couples, which was great because we easily had all our questions answered. We initially thought that the class would be a chore, since it takes up the entire weekend; however, Amanda, who is full of energy, made the class enjoyable. As a self proclaimed \birthing nerd\, Amanda is very knowledgeable about the subject and teaches perinatal nursing at BCIT as well as being a perinatal nurse at the St Paul's. She provides a balanced discussion on the options available (pain management, delivery options, etc) and discusses the pros and cons of each option to help us make an informed decision. This was something we really appreciated as it didn't feel like we were pushed towards any particular option. There's a great deal of breadth of subjects in the class as well, from what to expect, techniques for pain management (including hands on practice of massages), breastfeeding, and more. Thanks Amanda, we are a lot more prepared now after taking your class. We will definitely recommend your class to our friends and family.
Highly recommended! I’m a first-time dad and this class was absolutely fantastic for me. I came away feeling much more confident about the impending birth because afterward I felt like labour suddenly wasn’t such a mystery. Better than from reading books, I could visualize the processes and know what to expect. Amanda is a fabulous instructor and an absolute wealth of knowledge (medical science and traditional). She teaches, but also prepares the class for the birth experience.
