Interested in only the one hour Infant CPR portion of the class?
“All we knew about birth before taking the Babe class was what we had seen in movies. And they skip out on a lot of parts, but the Babe class filled us in on all those parts! The way Felicia and her team educate about labor, delivery and the first few weeks postpartum helped build our confidence. There are lots of little bits of wisdom with catchy phrases that we started calling Felicia-isms. They were easy to remember even when our brains were elsewhere and we were severely sleep deprived, but they helped keep us calm and confident that we could do this! Highly recommend the Babe class to anyone who is preparing to give birth and there’s so much great content to educate partners on how to be supportive.”

We highly recommend purchasing a copy of The Birth Partner 5th Edition – this book is the foundation of our class. Although it isn’t necessary, it is a wonderful supplementation to your in person education
