Review from the 2025 Birthing SurveyNewborn care and lactation class through boober I forget the name of the instructor. I liked her a lot and the class was very informative. I’m not sure it was necessary but it made me feel good to do at the time.

Review from the 2025 Birthing SurveyClass was amazing. Would strongly recommend. I attended the class with very little knowledge and left feeling more comfortable, more confident and ready for the challenge to come. It was a fantastic class. We added the pain coping mechanism class to our package and didn’t feel like this part of the class was as valuable so was interesting to do if you have time but wouldn’t say it was truly crucial.

Review from the 2025 Birthing SurveySo helpful - informative, simple to understand, light hearted and funny, but also real about understanding your body and pain and how to manage it.

Review from the 2025 Birthing SurveyClass was good and informative but we chose an in person class (instead of a cheaper virtual one) in the hopes of connecting with other soon to be parents and unfortunately the class didn’t allow for much of that

Review from the Spring 2023 Birthing SurveyWhat month and year was your child born? April 2023 Review: The intro to childbirth class (in-person) was good, but there was a lot to fit in in 3 hours. I would have preferred something more interactive and maybe with multiple sessions.
