What should I bring to class?
Our classes are informal. We suggest you wear comfortable clothing to class, preferably pants. In your Preparation for Childbirth class you will spend some time on the floor so we urge you to bring a small pillow and a yoga mat or blanket to class each week. You don’t need to bring any of these items for: Breastfeeding, Infant Care, or Pediatric Sleep classes.

Class sizes vary. In person classes are currently 8 people (4 couples); online classes are no more than 16 people (8 couples).

 

Is class more than just breathing?
YES! So much more. For a list of some of the many topics we cover, click on our Programs link. Also check out the other classes we offer in addition to our Preparation for Childbirth class.

 

Who do I call if I won’t be in class or if I will be late to class?
Your instructor will distribute a class outline with her personal contact information on it on the first night of class. Please call her if you cannot attend class or if you have any questions.

 

What is your cancellation policy in the event of bad weather?
We will make every effort possible to speak with each family in person if we need to cancel class. In the event that we can’t contact the family directly, we will leave voice mail messages. Please check your messages if you have any concerns. We generally start making cancellation calls at approximately 3:00 PM.
