Childbirth Education
The best childbirth and parenting classes are those which support families through the many changes that come with welcoming a new child into the family. They provide resources and information so families can make informed decisions, clarify beliefs, ideals and priorities and provide a context for families to proactively address fears and concerns.

Who fed me from her gentle breast
And hushed me in her arms to rest,
And on my cheek sweet kisses prest?
My Mother.
