Samaritan on Main

Certified childbirth educators will cover: signs and stages of labor; relaxation and breathing techniques; pain management and epidural anesthesia; postpartum and newborn care; and car seat safety. This four week course also includes a tour of the labor and delivery, nursery and post-partum areas. Due to the informative and timely nature of this course, your support person is encouraged to participate, and we ask you schedule your session at least two months prior to your due date.

The final class in this session will be held on October 4 at Samaritan Hospital.

For your convenience, we offer a Saturday Childbirth Preparation Class which covers the same topics in a condensed, one day session from 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. at Samaritan on Main. The remaining Saturday class is scheduled for November 20.

The Childbirth Preparation Class, whether you attend the four week session or the one day session, costs $40.

Breastfeeding Classes are also offered at Samaritan on Main from 6 - 8:30 p.m. on the following Wednesdays: October 6, November 3 and December 1. The Breastfeeding Class costs $20.
