Learn more about childbirth, available in English and Spanish

Our online childbirth class is designed for parents who cannot make it to an on-site class, or those who simply prefer the convenience of online learning. Available in English and Spanish, this option is perfect for moms-to-be on bed rest, for those with scheduling conflicts, or as a refresher for those who have already attended a class. This self-paced course takes approximately six hours to complete and can be reviewed as often as needed.


It is recommended that you begin this childbirth preparation program when you are approximately 28 weeks along in your pregnancy. Registration is required.


The topics covered in this course include:


  • How your body prepares for birth and delivery
  • Medical procedures including medications
  • Labor support, breathing relaxation, massage, visualization
  • Cesarean delivery
  • Postpartum – also known as the fourth trimester
  • Newborn care and feeding
