NARH offers weekend childbirth education class02:17PM / Monday, March 30, 2009
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - North Adams Regional Hospital will offer a weekend birthing class for expectant parents on Saturday, April 18, and Saturday, April 25, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The classes will be held at the VNA & Hospice of Northern Berkshire Community Room, 535 Curran Highway, North Adams, Mass.
Colette Baran, a Lamaze-certified childbirth educator and certified lactation counselor at the NARH Birthing Center, is the course instructor.
Pre-registration is required. For more information or to register, one may call the NARH Birthing Center at (413) 664-5127.
“This is a perfect opportunity for the expectant parents who are a little pressed for time or who can’t commit to the regular courses that take place over several weeks,” said Baran. “We have two Saturdays of fun-filled activities and evidence-based information to help them have the birth experience they want.”
The classes will cover topics including labor and delivery, breathing and relaxation, communication skills, movement and positioning, support person techniques, acupressure, yoga, doula support, birth plans, pain relief options, breast-feeding with a lactation consultant, postpartum adjustments, and a tour of the Birthing Center at NARH.
“This course will help empower the expectant family with information and techniques to travel through their birth experience with confidence,” said Baran. “The parents not only leave this class feeling more prepared for labor and birth, but many make connections with other parents and find support for their parenting journey in the community.” |
