Navigating information on pregnancy, birth and postpartum can be challenging and overwhelming. Online resources aren't always helpful, or accurate. Do you wish you can just ask the experts yourself? We've created a Prenatal Guest Speaker Series so you can do just that!
Our webinars help connect new and expecting families looking for more information from various perinatal experts in the field. Join a session, learn more about important perinatal topics and have your questions answered. Each session will have a different guest speaker with varying expertise. Sessions are approximately one hour long and are hosted online over Zoom. Registration will be limited to allow for everyone the opportunity to ask questions.
Registration is now open!
