Description

Our most popular!

One of the best birthing classes in NYC! Located at our beautiful freestanding birthing center. A fun, hands-on combination of our Breastfeeding, Baby Care and Childbirth classes. The Five hour class allows you to experience simulated birth, learn to time your contractions, and practice breathing and relaxation exercises. Nurse Jackie makes the birthing course fun and informative.

During this course we screen informative videos that demonstrate and teach each of the techniques/lessons. At the end of the video, we practice the topics discussed in the video.

During the Breastfeeding portion, our moms-to-be will use realistic baby dolls. Nurse Jackie teaches how to have the baby latch on properly, how to hold the baby correctly, how to prevent shaken baby syndrome & how to make more breast milk naturally.

We demonstrate how to properly pump breast milk using 4 different branded breast pumps. We can also help you with your insurance company to see if they cover the cost of the pumps.

  • The Lamaze Technique: Even if this is your first pregnancy, chances are good you’ve heard of the Lamaze technique (or at least Lamaze breathing). However, there’s more to this method than just inhaling deeply. As the most widely used childbirth method in the U.S., the Lamaze technique focuses on building the mother’s confidence and involves learning about the birth process, relaxation techniques and of course, breathing exercises designed to help moms through contractions.
  • The Bradley Method: This method, which involves both parents, prepares the mother to deliver her baby without pain medications and educates the baby’s father in birth coaching techniques. The Bradley Method also allows both parents to go through labor rehearsals that include relaxation techniques, massage and other methods designed to help mothers cope with the intensity of labor and delivery.
  • Birthing From Within: A holistic approach to childbirth, Birthing From Within offers parents a general informative teaching experience as well as multi-sensory processes that are designed to help mothers discover how labor works and how to keep calm during the process while coping with any unexpected surprises. Though the goal of Birthing From Within is education about natural childbirth, information about C-sections, epidurals and other interventions are also given.
