Childbirth Education & Birth Support for NYC Families
Pregnant in Brooklyn — or anywhere in New York City?
Brooklyn Birth Shop offers childbirth education and doula guidance designed specifically for families giving birth in NYC hospitals. Founded by Brooklyn-born birth educator and doula Kerri Evers — with over 20 years of experience supporting families across New York City — our classes bring together everything she’s learned working alongside incredible OBs, midwives, and nurses, alongside the real stories of hundreds of families who came before you.
Introducing the Brooklyn Balanced Birth Class — everything you actually need to know about giving birth in a NYC hospital. So you can walk into your baby’s birth feeling informed, confident, supported — and genuinely excited.
At Brooklyn Birth Shop, we believe every family deserves honest, up-to-date information about how to have a baby in this city — and feel great doing it.
Reflections from our Clients


Birth in NYC is different. You deserve to understand how it really works.
Real, experience-based birth education for families planning hospital births in New York City — learn how to navigate labor with confidence, reduce unnecessary interventions, and feel truly supported every step of the way.
The class NYC parents wish they’d taken before giving birth.
After more than 20 years supporting families across NYC hospitals, one thing is clear: the families who feel the most confident aren’t necessarily the ones who know the most — they’re the ones who understand how birth actually unfolds in this environment.
That’s what we teach here.
This 4-hour childbirth class is designed for expectant parents who want clear, honest, fun, and supportive birth education — without fear-based messaging or information overload. Because let’s be real: who has time for weekly classes? Kerri’s class is tailored to your specific hospital, your provider, and most importantly — to you.
If you’re pregnant in NYC, this workshop will help you understand how labor actually works, what your options are, and how to make decisions that feel right for your family.
What to Expect
This is a grounded, real-world experience designed to help you understand birth, trust your body, and move through labor with confidence and clarity.
Blending evidence-based education with 20+ years of hands-on experience in NYC hospitals, you’ll leave feeling genuinely prepared — not overwhelmed.
Birth is one of the most important experiences of your life. You deserve to enter it feeling confident, supported, and ready.
We won’t tell you how to give birth. We’ll teach you how to understand your options, know what’s normal, and make decisions that feel right for your family.
