Introducing the Stay Connected
Postpartum Group
We’ve Gone Virtual
In light of the inevitable changes that are taking place around the globe due to COVID-19, Ypsi-Arbor CBE has taken our class virtual until further notice. Our plan is to return to in-person classes as soon as it is deemed safe, however in the meantime, we are committed to offering excellent education virtually.
Our current series is being held via zoom.com and so far we have had a good response from our students 
who had to switch mediums halfway through our “Understanding Labor and Birth” segment of class. Obviously there is a learning curve, and we are learning rapidly what works and what does not in a virtual setting.
As we move forward, we have changed some of the specifications and timing for class. We have shortened class to 2 hours per week, 7-9pm, we are however offering two (2) personal sessions for each student in order for them to have time to ask any questions they have or for us to help craft a plan that can change and fit your specific birthing or postpartum wishes.
Upon registration, you will be invited to our private student Facebook group, our private resource page, and a link to schedule your one-on-one sessions with Katy and/or Ariana.
If you are a past client, please request to join our Facebook group, as we value everyone’s input and want to hear how everyone is doing. We hope to offer Facebook live events, and to share current info on the COVID crisis, as well as helpful parenting and birth content as we find it.
We look forward to supporting as many folks as we can, and thus are also offering vastly discounted (up to 100%) classes to those who demonstrate need. Please reach out if you would like to attend our classes!
Lastly, I want to thank our amazing community of nurses, midwives, doulas, lactation consultants, and doctors who are doing so much to support our students. Please share with your patients and clients if you think they may benefit from joining our classes.
