You’ve got a lot going on, and fitting in extra classes that last for weeks at a time is not on the list. We get it, and that’s why all of our classes are done in a single day, so you can get back to all the other things on your plate. All classes are offered as virtual, private classes, via video conferencing. This unique, private childbirth education class, is customized to each individual family unit. You’ll still get all the same great handouts, and one-on-one question-and-answer time but without the interruptions and drive time of an in-person class! Private classes can be scheduled based on availability, with options for 6 days per week.
