Get Equipped. Be Encouraged. Walk with God.
Get Equipped.
Equip yourself with knowledge as you prepare for the journey that is parenthood. Childbirth classes offer the opportunity to explore the incredible ways God designed a woman’s body to carry and deliver her child. Classes give foundational information about common interventions, complications and coping strategies to help you be successful in the journey.
Be Encouraged.
Explore the perfect and beautifully crafted story God has written for your pregnancy and birth. Meet with a labor expert who is ready to answer your questions, offer support and guide you as you prepare your birth plan. Find ways to make this journey personal, spiritual and uplifting.
Walk with God.
Out of His love for us, God sent his son to Earth as a baby, born in a humble stable. Jesus lived a blameless life, and still chose to die on the cross to save us from our sins. This is where our hope lies- in God’s deep love and care for us. He promises to be with us through every twist and turn. Let’s transform our fears into trust in the Lord and embrace the excitement of faith.
Mission
My mission is to equip you with knowledge and encourage you as you walk with God through your pregnancy and childbirth journey.
Welcome…
My name is Kimmy Petty. I am a Labor and Delivery Nurse, wife, mother of three beautiful children, and above all else, a child of God. I created A Thrill of Hope Childbirth Ministries out of obedience to God’s calling and my desire to help women view birth as an exciting opportunity to see God, rather than a fearful, complicated medical event. I eagerly anticipate how God will use my passion for teaching to impact others. With 12 years at the bedside as a labor and delivery nurse and personal experience with “out of hospital” birth, I offer practical information and encouragement to equip you in your journey to motherhood.
Childbirth Classes
A Thrill of Hope is excited to provide Birth Restored Childbirth education classes in private and group settings.
Birth Planning Consultations
A Thrill of Hope also provides personalized birth planning sessions to help ensure all your questions are answered and you are equipped for labor.
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from you
when I was made in the secret place,
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body;
all the days ordained for me were written in your book
before one of them came to be.
Psalm 139:13-16 NIV
