Blossom Childbirth Prep Series

Our Childbirth Prep Series derives tools and techniques from a broad and diverse range of sources covering all the core topics of any comprehensive childbirth preparation class. Our series is known to have a great balance between theory and practice allowing you to arrive at the day of your birth knowledgeable and confident, outfitted with a vast variety of labor support tools. Couples tell us they especially appreciate the practical approach that goes beyond what is typically covered in basic books or classes.

What you will learn

Included in this series:
  • Breathing and relaxation techniques
  • Positions of comfort
  • Partner support
  • Visualization
  • Options regarding labor variations
  • Pain management
  • Informed consent
  • Complications and medical interventions
Visual aids and films add a true view of labor and delivery with its many variations and personal coping techniques. Our small group size allows for more individual attention and time to discuss topics of concern. You will come away with a clear understanding of labor on the physical as well as emotional level.

Blossom understands the importance of creating a community of support and camaraderie for the transition into parenthood. Our small class size fosters long-lasting connections among parents-to-be. In addition, Blossom offers many opportunities for new families to return with their babies to continue the connections made in their birthing class and make even more! (See our Parent-Baby Classes, Events, and Monthly Groups.) Experienced Blossom Moms tell us the Community at Blossom is what sets us apart from other birth classes in the area.

Our Series is offered in two formats: The Evening Series meets once weekly for five weeks on a weeknight evening from 7:00- 9:30pm. The Weekend Series meets once weekly for three weeks on Saturday from 2:00- 6:00pm. We recommend that you finish your classes at least three weeks before your due date.
