Can Spinning Babies truly transform your birth experience? Join us in this eye-opening episode featuring Cris, The Passionate Doula and the only certified Spinning Babies parent educator in Canada. Cris shares her journey and expert insights into how simple movements, mindful positioning, and the revolutionary Spinning Babies techniques can prepare your body for a shorter, less painful labor.
