Childbirth and Parenting Classes

The hospital offers an extensive selection of classes to meet your educational needs during pregnancy and throughout the early parenting period. Our classes will help you explore your choices and make informed decisions about your childbirth experience and prepare you to become a confident parent.

Classes are described below. To register on-line, click on the appropriate link.

If you cancel, you will receive a full refund minus a $10.00 processing fee, as long as your cancellation is received no later than 72 hours before the first class. If cancellations are received less than 72 hours before a class begins, we will refund 50% of your payment. Refunds will not be given after a class starts unless a medical complication prevents you from attending the class.

Occasionally we have to cancel a class because of low enrollment, in which case we are happy to enroll you in another class, apply your payment to the fees for a private class, or provide a full refund.

In case of inclement weather, please call the hospital at 720-854-7350 one hour before the scheduled class time to learn if it has been cancelled. If a class is canceled, your instructor will coordinate a make-up session.

If you have questions or want to register by phone, call 720-854-7834 Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
