In this engaging and intimate setting, you will learn essential knowledge and skills to build your confidence and feel as prepared for labor and birth as possible, to help you have a safe, healthy birth in line with your ideals.

You'll also connect with and learn from other expectant parents in your community.
There is no one right way to labor. We stand by the philosophy that birth is a normal process and hope to inspire confidence in everyone we teach by sharing what possible things to expect, helping you develop the skills to move through your labor and leaving you feeling prepared to work through whatever your journey turns out to be. It is our goal to educate you about the full spectrum of options for birth, and then to support you unconditionally.
Taught by experts who have assisted 20,000+ expectant parents through a wide range of birth choices and experiences
Session 2: Pain Coping Practice
Labor and birth demand both physical and mental preparation and requires more than just information alone. As you anticipate your upcoming birth, it's crucial to equip yourself with a diverse range of comfort measures and coping techniques. The tools and techniques you will learn and practice in our class will form your labor toolbox, ensuring that you and your support team are well-prepared to reduce your perception of pain, decrease stress and anxiety, and increase your comfort during childbirth, while also potentially shortening your labor and increasing the likelihood of a vaginal birth. By learning and practicing effective labor positions, strategies to promote labor progress, breathing techniques, guided visualizations and more, you'll enable your body and mind to rise to the challenge of birthing your baby. You'll discover how to minimize discomfort and approach labor with confidence, equipped with the transformative power of pain coping skills.
Session 3: Lactation & Newborn Care
In this session expecting families become familiar with the basics of infant care & feeding in the early days and weeks after birth to start with confidence! Swaddling and diaper changing techniques are also practiced.

Invest your time and energy in preparing for postpartum with us, and gain essential skills to navigate this period with confidence. Unlock the secrets to building a strong care team, promoting physical and emotional healing, maximizing precious sleep, and nourishing your body for optimal well-being. Our expert instructors are dedicated to helping you stay connected to yourself, your baby or babies, and your partner (if applicable), ensuring a smoother transition to parenthood.

The school highly recommend that students schedule any prenatal classes or workshops to end by the time they are 36 weeks pregnant. If they schedule class for after they begin their 36th week, they run the risk of having their baby and missing their class without a refund. In the event that they go into labor before 36 weeks, they may apply 90% of the class cost to another class (i.e.: CPR) or service (i.e.: postpartum doula care).
In the special circumstances of a mother-to-be being placed on bed rest or delivering before 36 weeks before the beginning of a class series, they may apply 90% of the class fee to another class or service at Birth Day Presence. If bed rest or delivery happens while they are in the middle of a series (and they would have completed their classes before they began their 36th week), they may apply the fees from the unused portion of the class toward another class or service at Birth Day Presence.
We are not responsible for providing make-ups or issuing any credit for classes missed as a result of scheduling conflicts, vacations, illness, emergencies, or other circumstances beyond our control.
