Childbirth Education

Whether you are expecting a baby for the first time or have other children, all parents have questions about birth and caring for their newborn. Childbirth Education classes increase your confidence and give you the opportunity to become familiar with the choices you have and help you make informed decisions about your labor, your birth and your baby. 

Our childbirth classes follow the content and time guidelines recommended by Lamaze International and the Boston Association of Childbirth Educators. All of our instructors are certified in their area. 

Classes can be taken anytime to fit your schedule. Our recommendation is after 28 weeks and completed ideally about 4 weeks before your due date.
