Heather Bell is a certified childbirth instructor AAHCC and Doula. She has been teaching The Bradley Method of Natural Childbirth for three years and has had two successful natural child births on her own (one hospital, one homebirth). Heather became a certified teacher after the birth of her first child Chloe.
