Valley View Medical Center to Offer Childbirth Education Classes

Valley View Medical Center is excited to announce the continuation of Childbirth Education classes offered to its patients. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the hospital temporarily paused all childbirth education offerings. As of April 28, 2022, the hospital has partnered with Birthly to offer free access to virtual childbirth education classes, allowing patients to access valuable educational resources in the comfort of their own homes.

“We are thrilled to now offer classes to expecting parents in our community through Birthly,” says Kim Ponthieux, OB Director at Valley View. “Prenatal education is so important for new parents and offering live online classes will allow parents to join classes anywhere on their computer, tablet or smart phone.”

Through the Birthly partnership, patients of Valley View Medical Center can access a variety of perinatal classes online at no additional cost. All classes are live, which means patients will have the opportunity to connect through a live video feed with certified and experienced childbirth educators. Birthly Educators will provide interactive teaching on a variety of top-of-mind topics and patients will have dedicated time to ask questions.

Classes currently offered include Early Pregnancy Preparations, Prenatal Education Bootcamp (English and Spanish), Coping and Comfort, Breastfeeding 101 (English and Spanish), as well as Newborn Care (English and Spanish). Since each class type is offered multiple times a month, patients now have more flexibility in choosing a time that fits their schedule and can attend classes anywhere virtually via their laptop, tablet, and other mobile devices.
