ABOUT US

We are ChildBirth Education

Our goal is to provide education to expectant parents that will help them to experience a healthy pregnancy and birth, while increasing their knowledge and confidence and living their dreams.

Our prenatal classes are designed to encourage group participation and sharing of knowledge.

We use a variety of teaching techniques: discussion, videos/DVD’s, small group format, practice sessions and guest speakers.
