The Balanced Birth Method™
A Holistic and Fear-Free Approach to Childbirth
The Balanced Birth Method™ is a proven, step-by-step system created by Jessica and Ben Lagrone to prepare couples for unmedicated birth and be ready for unexpected. Used by thousands of families in over 40 countries, it blends the best natural birth techniques with evidence-based knowledge — so you’re ready for anything.
Hospital birth classes are often too basic while natural-birth classes don’t cover interventions enough. The Balanced Birth Method is different: it’s balanced, holistic, and couples-focused.
Moms and partners learn the natural and the medical side of birth together - so they’re on the same page.
At its core is a simple framework: PREP
Prepare your body & mind → Learn evidence-based tools to manage contractions, shorten labor, and push without tearing.
Ready for the unexpected → Understand every stage of labor, know your medical and natural options, and confidently navigate the hospital system.
Empower your partner → Train your partner with proven techniques so you labor as a team — not alone.
Powerful Beliefs → Replace fear and doubt with confidence and joy, so you enter birth strong and finish more connected as a couple.
Why it works
It’s comprehensive — covering both natural and medical sides of birth.
It’s couples-focused — partners aren’t sidelined, they’re equipped.
It’s transformational — preparing you for more than just labor; it strengthens your relationship and your transition into parenthood.
The Balanced Birth Method doesn’t just prepare you for a birth — it prepares you for one of life’s biggest transitions, giving you the confidence, peace, and connection you need to welcome your baby with joy.
