SUMMARY:June Montreal Prenatal Classes
DESCRIPTION:\nBirth Essentials Prenatal Classes\nBy popular demand, MotherWit is returning to in-person prenatal classes at our space in NDG in a new hybrid format. We are so pleased to once again offer the face-to-face connection that makes this learning so special.\nBirth Essentials is rooted in over 30 years of experience attending births, supporting new families in their first few weeks as well  teaching families, doctors and health professionals. Our approach is simple: we provide evidence-based information without judgment. Whether you are planning a hospital birth or a home birth with a midwife, our goal is to ensure you feel supported, heard, and truly prepared for the road ahead.\n\nHow the Hybrid Format Works\nWe’ve designed this series to be as gentle on your schedule as possible. To save you travel time and allow you to learn at your own pace, the course is split into two parts:\n\nSelf-Paced Modules:You’ll get access to short pre-recorded video lessons. These are structured as narrated visual guides, essentially a series of deep-dives into birth and postpartum theory.\n\nDuration: Modules range from 10 to 40 minutes (averaging about 20 minutes each).\nFlexibility: You can watch these on your own schedule. They will be available as of June\n\n\nThe In-Person Intensive We then gather at our office in NDG on a Sunday for a 5-hour session. This is where we move from theory into practice. We focus entirely on the elements that require “being there”\nWhat We’ll Explore Together\n\nThe in-person component focuses on the physical and emotional aspects of labour and early parenthood:\n\n\n\nLabour Support: Practicing comfort measures and coping skills, massage, and positioning.\nResilience: Learning breathing and nervous system regulation techniques.\nPartner Skills: Coaching your partner on how to provide physical and emotional support as well as advocacy.\nInfant Care: Hands-on practice with baby care and emotional regulation for those first few weeks home.\n\n\n\nMost importantly, this is a space to meet your community. You’ll be surrounded by other parents-to-be, building a support network that often lasts long after the classes end.\n\nREGISTER HERE!\n\n\n\n\n\n
