BSBA is a godsend. It is a program made for us by us; the curriculum is current and update with additional hands on learning if you choice. Midwife Christina gives great gems and nuggets and you will connect with friends for a lifetime... I gleaned a lot from her so much that looking for a preceptor or mentor or midwife I was able to be a birth assistant for two midwives.
Jamilla Adams
I enrolled in the Birth Assistant course with BSBA. It really kick started my transition from teaching to full time birth work. Christina is invested in us from application interview to well after completion. The course includes a quality foundation of knowledge.
From what is a birth assistant to medical terminology to accruing certifications needed. It helped me get a midwives assistant position and her support gave me the drive to continue on to applying to midwifery school!
