Prenatal Education

Classes

Woman's Hospital offers hundreds of classes to the community each year. Our pregnancy and parenting classes are the most comprehensive available for you and your family. Because understanding which classes to take when can be confusing, we have organized all of our classes and the recommended schedule onto this page - by Trimester and by Special Need - to make it easier for you. Several classes can be taken at any time and Special Needs classes are in addition to the regular schedule.

Many new classes are now being offered at *Destination Maternity, 5921 Bluebonnet Blvd. (In the Bluebonnet Parc beside World Market, next to the Mall of Louisiana).

If you have further questions, take a moment to review our complete Stages of Pregnancy section and please do not hesitate to call Resources for Women at 225-924-8444.
