FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long do your classes take?

Intro to Childbirth, Preparing For Your Hospital Birth, and Bringing Home Baby are aimed to be about 4 hours. The time that the class will take each family is going to greatly depend on how much time you choose to spend on each activity. Our Breastfeeding class is geared to be about 3 hours, but also depends on how much time you spend on each activity.

Who are these classes for?

All of our classes are geared towards educating families, although if you are a perinatal professional, you will also find lots of helpful information in these classes.

What is the difference between your classes and the classes that my hospital offers?

Our classes are comprehensive, hands-on, communication based and activity-based. They include a helpful and easy-to-implement workbook. Hospital-based classes are larger in number of people, typically lecture-style, shorter in length of time, non-interactive and not as comprehensive. Our in-person classes are smaller (typically 7-8 couples) which allows for more conversation and activities.

How do I know what classes to take?

Most of our birthing classes are geared for medicated or unmedicated births. The focus is informed decision-making and communication with your partner and healthcare provider. We strongly believe that your options can help you have an improved birth outcome.

Do you have these classes offered in any other languages other than English?

All of our virtual classes are offered in both Spanish and English. Click here to learn more about our Spanish classes.

Should I take a breastfeeding class?

We highly recommend taking a breastfeeding class if you plan on breastfeeding. Our breastfeeding class comes with a very helpful workbook and is more comprehensive than most hospital-based classes.

In-person classes may be available in your area in 2024, please check the map to see if they are offered.
