Abstract
As a childbirth educator (CBE), it is important to maintain an ethical, evidence-based practice. For the Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator, this is guided by organizational documents in the form of the standards of practice and the code of ethics. However, these ethics and standards are universally relevant and should be used when considering a contemporary definition of professionalism for CBEs. This article examines professionalism and organizational standards and finishes with vignettes to further explore their application. For parent-centered antenatal education, professionalism should be seen as emphasizing ethics, evidence, and inclusion while moving toward a gold standard for antenatal education.
