Bursting with Joy! Online Birthing Class

In this birthing class, Certified Nurse-Midwife Sarah Kleinman will cover the birthing process and guide you through birthing practice, while Rabbi Suzie Jacobson will discuss Jewish values, ideas, and rituals around birthing, including naming ceremonies and the bris. In addition to the online class sessions, a private 30 minute one-on-one session will be scheduled for each parenting unit.

This class is offered in partnership with 18Doors, and is appropriate for first time parents or as a refresher course for second (or third!) time parents. It is also a perfect supplemental course if you have taken or plan to take another birthing class. We welcome everyone at our events, and invite racially diverse and LGBTQ individuals as well as interfaith couples and families to participate in our programming. If you need any accommodations to fully participate in a program, please let us know on your registration form.
