Interested in prenatal classes?

Prenatal classes are a great way to familiarize yourself with expectations for labour and learning basic baby cares.

Prenatal classes are generally provided in two formats: a series of classes or intensive weekends. Attending prenatal classes are also a great way for partners to learn how to help during labour and after your baby is born.

Some of the topics generally covered during prenatal classes include:

  • Signs of labour
  • Normal progression of labour and birth
  • Pain management (natural and medications)
  • Labour/Birth interventions
  • How partner/support system can help
  • Postpartum planning
  • Newborn Care
  • Infant Feeding
  • Infant Massage

Whether it is your first baby or you want a refresher class, prenatal classes are great opportunities to ask questions and gain insights into labour, birth and caring for baby.
