Lamaze is so much more than the breathing techniques we are known for. Lamaze promotes a natural, healthy and safe approach to pregnancy, childbirth and early parenting practices. Knowing that pregnancy and childbirth can be demanding on a woman's body and mind, Lamaze serves as a resource for information about what to expect and what choices are available during the childbearing years. This helps to simplify and clarify the childbirth process and alleviate fears. Most importantly, it helps women feel more informed and prepared so they can achieve safe and healthy pregnancies and births. Lamaze education and practices are based on the best, most current medical evidence available. They can help reduce the overuse of unnecessary interventions and improve overall outcomes for mothers and babies. Working closely with their families, health care providers, and Lamaze educators, millions of pregnant women have achieved their desired childbirth outcomes using Lamaze practices.
