New prenatal classes at Radiant ✨ October–December
Hi everyone,
Our next round of prenatal classes at Radiant is here!
From October through December, we’ll be offering six pay-what-you-can classes covering pregnancy, birth, newborn care, breastfeeding, and postpartum. Each class stands on its own, so you can come to one, a few, or all of them depending on what you want to learn more about.
October 1 — The Placenta After Birth Learn about the third stage of labour, delivering the placenta, delayed cord clamping, and the traditions and choices families have after birth.
October 15 — Newborn Procedures What actually happens with your baby in those first few hours? We’ll cover newborn checks, discuss the evidence behind cord clamping, vitamin K, eye ointment, and the choices you have.
October 29 — Breastfeeding Basics Know what to expect during the first hours and days of breastfeeding, including latch, feeding cues, milk production, and common early challenges.
November 12 — Protecting the Perineum Learn what can influence tearing during birth, what the evidence says about reducing your risk, and what recovery can look like.
November 26 — Postpartum Prep Prepare for the realities of the first weeks after birth and make a realistic plan for recovery, rest, meals, boundaries, and support.
December 10 — Know Your Birth Rights Understand informed consent, your rights and options during pregnancy and birth, and how to navigate decision-making with your care team.
All classes run Thursday evenings from 6:30–8:00 p.m. at Radiant Community Centre, 109 Mitton St. S.
🌻 All classes are pay-what-you-can. Choose an amount that works for your family. No one is turned away for lack of funds.
Partners and support people are welcome; our space is child-friendly, and tea and coffee are always on.
Registration is now open for all six classes.
