Janelle Oppel is a Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator (LCCE), and brings with her a repertoire of experience of teaching moms (especially in a cross cultural setting.) Her role includes educating pregnant women and their support partners about the changes and experiences of pregnancy, labour, birth, and the postpartum period. She has a love of teaching and believes education is a cornerstone to empowerment, and an avenue for positive change.
Prenatal classes: The prenatal classes are offered in a series of 6 weeks. Each class is 2 hours. Classes discuss late pregnancy changes, labour and birth, understanding birth interventions, post partum changes, healing and breastfeeding. Unfortunately, babysitting for older siblings is not available.
Support during labor: These classes are designed to teach families about normal labour and birth, how to cope during labour, and how to support Mom during labour. Any support person is welcome (i.e. Mom’s partner, mother, best friend, Doula, etc.). Due to class space, please speak with us if you wish to bring more than one support person to class.
Class reunions: We will arrange class reunions for each group at our center
“I really enjoyed the information in the class and the ability to ask questions. The instructor is very knowledgeable.”
If you would like to sign up for the prenatal classes please call us at 250-380-6883 or e-mail our instructor at prenatal@optionspregnancy.org
