Complimentary Childbirth
Classes bring
health, safety, peace-of-mind
 Pregnancy! What an exciting yet mysterious
word. Kanabec Hospital’s Prenatal Education Class
is designed to assist new parents-to-be in understanding
pregnancy and their journey toward parenthood. In offering these free
classes, our mission is to assist women in achieving a healthy
pregnancy and a satisfying and safe birth of their newborn,
and to assist women in recognizing when there is
a problem.The specific objectives are to assist parents-to-be
in:
• gaining an understanding
of a healthy pregnancy,
• gaining
an understanding of the physical process of childbirth
- and
anesthesia options,
•
learning and practicing relaxation and breathing techniques,
• learning
about the characteristics of the newborn,
• exploring
issues related to new parenting, and
• identifying
area resources for young families.
Classes are offered four times per
year starting in February, May, August and November.
New parents-to-be are encouraged to attend the first two
class sessions as soon as possible since important issues
that are helpful throughout the entire pregnancy are discussed.
The last four class sessions focus on
labor, birthing and the newborn. Breathing and relaxation
techniques are practiced, so you will need to bring a pillow
and mat or blanket.
Pre-registration for the Prenatal Education
Class is requested so that we are prepared for everyone.
For more information or to register, please
call Melissa or Kris at 320-679-1212 or
320-629-9993. Prenatal
