Birth Preparation, RDH

Join us in person or virtually for our Childbirth class, to prepare physically and emotionally for pregnancy, birth and your new role as parents.

Childbirth classes help make your birth experience the best possible, with comfort and relaxation techniques, birth and intervention information, bonding and breastfeeding. The childbirth class gives the opportunity to interact with other couples, and reinforce the information. You will receive complete information about your hospital stay, and all that Ascension River District has to offer.


This is a two class program – each session consists of 2 evenings per month. Plan on attending both classes for full understanding!
