Classes, Events and Screenings

Parents and future siblings arrive with a doll or stuffy in tow to explore different stations to help prepare them for baby's upcoming arrival. Following exploratory stations, children will gather for a short video about becoming a sibling and have a discussion and demonstration from a nurse educator explaining in simple and age-appropriate terms the process of birth. Lastly, kids will be taken on a "parade" (tour) of the maternity suite. Each sibling who will attend the class needs to be registered. Adults attending with the sibling(s) do not need to register.

This one-session virtual class discusses how to prepare your body for labor, comfort measures, birth hormones, and tips for how to have a non-medicated birth. For first time parents, it is preferred, but not required, to complete the Birth and Baby series first. Dads and partners are encouraged to attend and do not need to register for the class.
