New babies are exciting and require many adjustments. Our childbirth classes provide you with the information and skills needed to help you understand and deal with pregnancy, labor, delivery and the care of mom and baby after birth. We encourage you and your partner to attend early in pregnancy to receive the most benefit. All classes are held at the hospital from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. in the Conference Center. If you pay for all four classes the book "Understanding Birth" and all handouts are included. If you choose to attend single sessions you will receive the handouts for that session only.
