One Day Childbirth Class - Preparing You for Your Best Birth Experience

Our dynamic Labor & Delivery Nurse/Certified Doula team, teach this comprehensive, one day childbirth class. Preparing for Birth covers what to expect during your upcoming birth and how to cope with common discomforts. This class is perfect for first-time parents or anyone needing a refresher before welcoming another child.

You’ll learn about the stages and phases of labor, ways to manage the discomfort during each, and will be able to practice some simple ways to ease the discomfort that is common towards the end of pregnancy and during labor.

We’ll talk about non-medical and medical pain relief options and discuss ways to promote comfort, relaxation, and encourage labor progress with or without an epidural and whether you have a vaginal or cesarean birth.

You can expect evidence-based information presented without any bias for or against any choice you may make about your pregnancy, birth, or parenting.

The course fee includes an 80-page reference book to refer back to throughout your pregnancy and as you adjust to life with your newborn.
