Welcoming your baby is a joyful and life-changing experience—but your body and mind may need time, care, and support to recover. After birth, it’s common not to see your provider for several weeks.

This class is designed to help you navigate the crucial postpartum period. You’ll learn how to support your physical recovery and begin adjusting to life as a parent with confidence and care.
