We provide a family-centered approach to the birthing process in comfortable, home-like rooms featuring:
Prenatal Classes: This class has been designed to help expectant mothers and support persons prepare for the birth of a child, including labor and delivery. Classes are held througout the year on Wednesdays from 5 to 8:30 p.m. in Tendrils Rooftop Garden at Waverly Health Center. The cost is $35. Wear comfortable clothing.
Breastfeeding Classes: Choosing how to feed your child is an important decision. Our board certified lactation consultant can help! In this class, we will review basic principles and what to expect when breastfeeding. Significant others are encouraged to attend. This class is open to all, whether you plan to deliver at Waverly Health Center or not. Classes are held throughout the year on Tuesdays from 6 to 8 p.m. The cost is $25.
