Childbirth classes are an important part of preparing  to welcome a new family member, while also preparing you to become a parent.  Get up to speed on current practices in Kelowna, tips on birthing in your desired birthing location, develop the skills and knowledge to navigate labour, learn about caring for your newborn and breastfeeding, all while having fun and connecting with others in your community.
I offer a variety of Education Curriculums throughout Kelowna.   
Topics May Include: 
  • addressing fears and anxiety in pregnancy
  • late pregnancy comfort measures
  • stages and phases of labour
  • holistic comfort measures
  • support, comfort and coping
  • medical pain relief
  • birth preferences planning
  • decision making
  • KGH photo tour
  • breastfeeding
  • postpartum adjustments
  • newborn procedures
  • knowing your newborn
  • community resources
