YOUR VOICE in this class!
YOU'LL BE AMAZED!
Janis has taught for so many years that some of her first Lamaze Babies are grandparents! Ask any one who knows her whether time and work have dampened her passion for Lamaze, the answer is NO!
At Aloha Lamaze and Breastfeeding, we believe in providing fascinating, fun and funny lessons, relatable anecdotes, parables, and stories so couples connect lessons to their own paths through birth.
She taught a Pregnant and Parenting Teen program in Kailua, Oahu, Hawaii, for 18 years with the agenda that teen pregnancy should be a STEPPING STONE, not a STUMBLING BLOCK!
"Earth to Birth Partners":
Both mom and birth partner take the Infant Instinct Breastfeeding workshop. Couples may also invite their after-baby home helpers (your moms, et.)
to attend too FOR free.
You also get FREE, UNLIMITED, PHONE CONSULTS IF YOU HAVE BREASTFEEDING ISSUES AND/OR A 20% DISCOUNT
(vs. what I charge the public)

With decades of experience in childbirth, Janis Bush has taught over 11,000 expectant and new parent couples how to birth and breastfeed gently SINCE 1977.
Using the authentic Lamaze
method in 1976 for the birth of her first baby, she delights in the fact that she had an Orgasmic Birth*---smiling and conversational as she pushed out her son! She had a "Spontaneous Fetal Ejection Reflex* with baby #2. And she experienced "The Lull"* with baby #3!
She has taught in Ys, churches,
colleges, high schools, grade schools, pre-schools, gyms, parks, on beaches, athletic clubs, homes (yours and hers), apartment clubhouses, and hospitals, --sometimes just IN hospitals, sometimes FOR hospitals.
REGARDING HOSPITALS: Never again will she work for HOSPITALS OR ANYONE who wants to pay her to lie FOR THEIR CONVENIENCE AND FINANCIAL GAIN. She has been fired twice and quit a hospital once BECAUSE SHE TAUGHT THE TRUTH about the perfection of childbearing women's bodies. They don't want you to find out that there are 8 physiological reasons why pushing a baby out feels good for starters!
For one thing, doctors and nurses have never been taught those facts themselves!

Medical and Nursing schools do not teach about the normalcy of pregnancy, labor, birth and breastfeeding....even though all of those aspects of childbearing are driven by NORMAL sex hormones just like PUBERTY is. All are NORMAL Physiologic processes :>) Everything contemporary doctors and nurses are trained for is maternal pathology--
Medical and Nursing schools do not teach about the normalcy of pregnancy, labor, birth and breastfeeding....even though all of those aspects of childbearing are driven by NORMAL sex hormones just like PUBERTY is. All are NORMAL Physiologic processes :>) Everything contemporary doctors and nurses are trained for is maternal pathology--meaning childbearing is an experience of illness, not health. Their "best, good idea" is to MANIPIULATE the process through the Male Medical Model of MANAGED Maternity Care. This is true even if your OB is a woman.
With very few exceptions, healthy, full-term mothers and babies do not need the routine ("everybody gets this, hope you like it, too bad if you don't") interventions that are forced upon childbearing couples and babies, often without warning or permission.
All patients have rights which are found in the "Patient Bill of Rights" of each medical practice, hospital, or clinic. The Joint Commission's* "Speak-Up Campaign" delineates your rights as patients---Even simple things like introducing themselves as they enter your room after knocking and asking permission to touch you before they do, are not evidenced by most medical staff members. Courtesy, respect, being listened to, and honoring of your cultural desires in birthing (your birth plan IS your birth culture) are trivialized and joked about at nurses stations nationwide.
NEVERTHELESS, PATIENTS HAVE THE RIGHT TO INFOMRED REFUSAL AS WELL AS INFORMED CONSENT.
Rarely will you even encounter a careprovider in an office, clinic, or hospital who has even witnessed a spontaneous labor (starts on its own) without unnecessary and dangerous interventions. They can't BE IT, if they can't SEE IT.
I will teach you your rights, how to word your "demands", how to write a loop-hole-free Cultural Birth Values List (birth plan) so your journey is one of honor
not dismissal.
But you have got to call me and trust me. With you both on board, I will do the rest!
* The Joint Commission is the American regulatory institution that accredits hospitals and keeps their doors open if the hospital is compliant to high standards or fines them, puts them on probation, or closes their doors if giving less that excellent care.

When I started my career 48 years ago, Lamaze was the cornerstone of private childbirth education. The method originated in France in the 1950s and arrived in America in the 1960s. Slowly hospitals hijacked the name ("lamaze") but their classes never have been nor will they ever be the quality and depth of content that you get from a private, certified childbirth educator---especially one who trained as I did. This will not just be a PowerPoint presentation with me reading the captions to the slides like the typical hospital class.
My course is the REAL DEAL!

My workshop, for both the mother and birth partner, is the polar opposite of the very flawed American Breastfeeding Method. I teach you how to get out of the baby's way so the baby can find the nipple and latch perfectly based on INSTINCTS rather than contrived positions. Hospitals rush* the baby's mouth to your nipple and the result is sore, cracked, and bleeding nipples within 3 days. We proceed on "Baby Time*" This is NOT your sister's or mother's breastfeeding course. You also receive unlimited FREE postpartum phone consults and/or a discounted price for visiting my Latch Center or if I do a house call.

Presented as a recording. This Lesson can be taken per the couple's convenience after Lessons # 1-5. It is the only non-interactive Lamaze Lesson. I circle back for emphasis on critical topics, and tie-up loose ends with peripheral topics needed to navigate any systems that are known to sabotage the rights and desires of birthing couples.
