Family Birthing Center Classes Education is an essential part of the care offered by The Family Birthing Center. A variety of classes are available to help new mothers and families care for their newborn. A certified lactation consultant works with mothers in the hospital and after they return home to teach them the skills needed to breastfeed successfully. CPR / Safety courses provide instruction for clearing a child's airway and how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation, as well as how to promote safe practices in everyday life.
