Charis “Labor
Support” Workshop
Saturday, October 2, 2010
9 a.m. – 5 p.m.
at
Birthways Family Birth Center
in Sarasota, Florida
For
childbirth educators, doulas, midwives, or anyone who would like
to improve her ability to support laboring women.
At our workshops, learning is interactive, hands-on, fun, and
interesting. All Charis workshops are taught from a Christian
perspective, giving God the glory for His marvelous creation and
how He so wonderfully created women to bear children.
You will spend the day making new friends and becoming more
skilled in putting to use many techniques to bring a woman comfort
during each phase of labor, understanding the science behind why
the comfort measures work, creating an environment conducive to
the natural progression of labor, recognizing when a woman is
beginning to panic and helping her regain control, gently
encouraging a woman to effectively push out her baby while taking
advantage of the natural physiology of second stage, assisting a
woman in breastfeeding for the very first time, and so much more.
In addition to the valuable skills acquired at the workshop, you
will also take home with you a beautiful “labor support bag”
filled with an assortment of tools to help you successfully
support, serve, and bring comfort to your future clients as they
labor.
A delicious lunch will be provided for all the workshop attendees
to enjoy as you get to know each other better during a midday
break.
The cost is $200 for Charis members and $230 for non-members
(includes one-year Charis membership).

Our
Director's Heart
Elizabeth Lugmayer, CCE, CD, with Charis Director Kristin Schuchmann
Like a Proud Momma
Have you
ever been in a store with your children when the cashier comments on
what great kids you have? Or gotten a phone call or e-mail from
another mom telling you how happy she is that your child is friends
with her child? Or watched your children work very hard to
accomplish something and celebrated their success?
I experience something very similar on a regular basis as the
Executive Director of Charis Childbirth. I love watching our
students work hard to become the best birth professionals they can
be and it is absolutely thrilling to celebrate with them when they
reach and accomplish their goals. It is also pure joy to receive
phone calls and e-mails from people who have been served by Charis
birth professionals raving about the care they received or to hear
from midwives and OBs who love working with Charis students.
Especially exciting are the e-mails from expectant families
requesting a Charis-trained birth professional in their area because
they have heard how great Charis ladies are.
I don’t think it is an accident that Charis-trained birth
professionals have such a good reputation. Charis attracts women of
character who have a heart to serve with excellence. These women
didn’t choose the easiest, quickest, or least challenging course,
but the one that would prepare them best to serve expectant families
where they live. They study and work hard, and it pays off! Susan
Oshel and I are incredibly proud of our students! They truly are the
best of the best!
Blessings,
Kristin Schuchmann
