*Your birth support partner is required to attend all classes with you. Please review dates for classes below with your partner, and we will sign you up in our office. We will work the cost of classes into your payment plan.*
We will sign you up for classes at around 20-24 weeks as we recommend starting classes as early as 28 weeks and completing them by 36 weeks of pregnancy. That way, you have plenty of time to apply the information you learn before going into labor. Both you and your partner can become more confident and prepared for childbirth after attending birth classes.

Sign Up for a Class With Seasons Midwifery & Birth Center
Are you interested in attending a birth class? Seasons Community Birth Center offers childbirth classes to help you understand what will happen once you’re in labor and how you can get through it to deliver your beautiful baby. Our certified nurse midwives will teach you what to expect during birth and provide tips for staying calm and stress-free. You’ll have a supportive community during each class and be free to express your concerns and ask questions.
Information
The classes offered here are custom tailored for our birth center, with our midwives, with your ideal care plan in mind. Not everyone will need to take the same classes. The midwives will review your Class Requirements form with you so you will know which classes you will need to sign up for.
Childbirth is a beautiful life event that’s a cause for celebration. There are more options for childbirth for first-time parents and experienced parents other than going to the hospital and receiving an epidural. Natural births are an increasingly popular choice and can occur at home, a birth center or a hospital.
Learn more about childbirth and natural births when you attend baby birth classes.
