TESTIMONIALS

"We loved this virtual class! It was so helpful to get an overview of Newborn care as first time parents. My husband was able to change a diaper and learn to swaddle. It definitely made us both feel more prepared." 

Becky S.

"Abbie’s class was so helpful for myself and my husband. We left with a million new things to talk about and with excitement that we could handle life as new parents. I would highly recommend the class to anyone, especially new parents!"

Paige W.

"All of the classes we took with Abbie were incredible, and I would recommend every single one. We completed the Lamaze Essentials class, as well as the Newborn and Breastfeeding classes, and I don’t think we could have entered parenthood for the first time more confidently. Thank you, Abbie, for all of your expertise and guidance!"

Erica T.

"Abbie was an excellent instructor. We took three private classes with her and she made us comfortable and provided us with all of the tools and resources to make labor and the newborn process go well. She is familiar with the local hospitals procedures and was able to answer the hospital specific questions we had. I would highly recommend any of her classes and should I have questions or want to take additional classes in the future I would definitely go to her!"
