Words from families who have taken BBU classes.
“You wouldn't believe how much you don't know about caring for a newborn before you take these classes.”
“These classes were really helpful for my partner and I. We feel so much more confident about going into birth now. I had no idea what to expect before these classes. We also took the class to prepare for breastfeeding and caring for our new little cutie pie. 10 out of 10 recommend. You wouldn't believe how much you don't know about caring for a newborn before you take these classes.”
“As a first-time parent, I felt overwhelmed by all the information out there, but this course broke everything down into clear, supportive, and easy-to-understand lessons. They made me feel confident and empowered going into labor and early parenthood.”
“We absolutely loved these classes! So informative and we liked that we could pause for the day and resume when we had time. I highly recommend them to all expectant parents.”
“Birth and Baby University is so helpful. I was able to take so many great classes to help me prepare for birth.”
“They are amazing! 10/10 recommend!”
