Prenatal Classes: We offer prenatal classes to all of our clients giving birth for the first time. You will receive a phone call several months prior to your due date with your class dates. The classes are taught by midwives and cover the stages of labour, home & hospital births, birth plans, newborn care, and breastfeeding. The classes cost $150 for you and your labour support person to attend. If this fee is beyond your current means please talk to your midwife about reducing the fee.
