Even the most seasoned parents need a refresher now and again. With an ever-shifting birth culture, new studies, and new practices each year, taking a Childbirth Education Class with a well-qualified instructor will help ensure you're on top of the latest recommendations.

Choosing a class can seem daunting. From old standbys like Bradley and Lamaze to newer additions like Hypnobirthing and Birthing from Within, it can get overwhelming. When choosing a class that fits your family, it's important to weigh the pros and cons of each one and go with the one that resonates with you the most. It's also important to make sure that the course is something that engages with you and your partner. Often we see classes that focus just on the birthing person, it's important for all involved to learn the information!
