Expectant Family

Expectant Family Program

You have just received the good news that you are having a baby! We know that newborns need all the love and attention they can get. Our expectant family program is here to:

  • prepare parents and families for the arrival of a new addition.
  • share in the excitement of the birthing process.

Our instructors are registered nurses, certified childbirth educators and certified breastfeeding consultants. Classes offered will help parents learn about the pregnancy, lend guidance on breastfeeding, provide information on vaginal and Cesarean births and teach pain control methods. Family involvement is important to us, so we have designed a class specifically for grandparents and siblings.

We recommend enrollment for classes by your 5th month of pregnancy. Most classes have a maximum attendance of 12 couples. Please call 918-494-BABY for availability.
