About Birth and Beyond

Birth Education taught by Registered Labour & Delivery Nurses
Birth and Beyond is the 'baby' that grew out of helping hundreds of parents just like you navigate pregnancy, birth, and those first days with your little one.
​​
All classes are taught by registered L&D nurses with passion and skill for all things birth and baby. The classes are geared specifically to birthing practices in the Okanagan, and will help you know just what to expect when you deliver at and begin your parenting journey. Our unique perspective as practicing L&D nurses provides evidence-based information and hands-on experiences to help you make the very best choices for yourself and your baby.
​
Together we will learn about your pregnant and labouring body, practice relaxation and coping skills, watch birth stories, cover options for pain control, learn baby care and calming, gain knowledge in breastfeeding positions and techniques, and discover hundreds of tips and tricks that will improve your labour and delivery experience.
​
We know that every family is unique, every parent has different questions and concerns, and every baby arrives with a one-of-a-kind birth story. The physicians and midwives at Kelowna General Hospital trust Birth and Beyond to guide expecting parents towards a strong, positive start.
​
No one should have to face the day they become a parent with anxiety and overwhelm. Join us for action-packed classes that will grow your excitement and knowledge for what's ahead!
