Pregnancy Center Plus presents free parenting education classes for six consecutive weeks three times per year. Classes are offered in January, April, and September and are scheduled on Wednesdays from 6:30 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. at the Center.
We invite all first-time expectant mothers who have confirmed their pregnancy with PCPlus to join our classes. Your journey is special, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
We warmly welcome and strongly encourage fathers and support persons to participate in our classes. These sessions are designed not only to provide valuable information but also to foster group discussions, allowing participants to share experiences and support one another throughout the journey of parenthood. You will receive guidance and encouragement during this exciting time, both before and after your baby arrives. As a special thank you for your commitment, once you complete all six consecutive classes, you will be rewarded with a gift card for a brand-new crib and mattress, ensuring a cozy and safe sleeping environment for your little one.
