This is not your average childbirth class!

Our instructors have helped expectant families for a combined 45+ years...and they’re all parents themselves. We cover the nitty gritty of labor, childbirth, and postpartum, so you’re as ready as you can be. We also touch on how different cultures and generations view childbirth and the postpartum period, so you can navigate those complexities with grace.

After this class, you’ll be able to:

Prepare for giving birth–mentally, physically, and logistically
Identify 3rd trimester symptoms
Name the stages of labor and their typical symptoms, knowing when it’s “go time”
Navigate the transition with your older children
Differentiate between methods of pain management
Navigate the stages of birth, with a medical team (vaginal or cesarean)
Maximize the benefits of The Golden Hour
Care for your body and spirit in the days and weeks immediately after birth
Implement strategies for grown-up self-care during birth and postpartum
Seek help from trusted sources when needed
