Childbirth and Parenting Classes

There is a lot to learn about becoming a successful parent. That’s why we offer a wide range of classes taught by registered nurses certified in childbirth education. You can discover what to expect during pregnancy, and what’s likely to happen during labor and delivery of your baby. You can also learn how to care for your newborn.

Classes are also open to family members who would like to know more about the needs of new babies and their mothers.

Classes to help prepare for a new baby include Lamaze-prepared childbirth, breastfeeding, preparing for baby’s first weeks, prenatal yoga, prenatal stretch and tone, and classes for new fathers, siblings and grandparents. Classes for after the birth of a baby include postnatal exercise, postnatal yoga, infant massage, new mom’s discussion group and infant CPR.
