Julia was wonderful! She did a great job of making the information engaging and easily accessible for first time parents. She was really encouraging and inspiring!

The Bringing Home Baby course was an incredible learning experience for us. Our instructor Erin was passionate about the course content and is a very effective communicator. We enjoyed it so much we immediately signed up for the Pre Natal and CPR courses with Ottawa CEA as well. The course gave us the opportunity to ask questions about conflicting information we’ve heard about while preparing for our baby’s birth and hear how other soon-to-be parents are handling and setting boundaries relating to COVID. I feel this course has given us more confidence in our ability to become capable, calm parents.

Great class despite changed format

The online session was really informative. The instructor was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions.

Lilly was the absolute best! She really made me confident in having a VBAC. Her class was informative and helped me decide what I would and would not like as far as medications during labour. I would definitely recommend her to others.

Sure! Bringing Baby Home is an information packed course that is based on current research and the latest information. It has topics from car seats, to sleeping to eating and any question you could possibly ask is answered thoroughly. All parents will benefit from this class.

Lilly was incredible, she shared the information that can appear as quite daunting in such a calm, humble matter. At no point did she make my husband and I feel overhwlemed by the information abd when information felt overhwhelming, she ensured to make the time to calm all of our worries and answer all our questions

Again thanks for all the work you've done to make the class accessible during this time and to update all the resources.

Julia was really informative and full of excitement, so it was indeed a wonderful series of class

The suggestions for community resources were fantastic. It definitely helps to have a starting point to know what to look for and what questions to ask.

Discussions and candid disclosure of information about various topics

My coworkers highly recommended I take a course with Ottawa CEA. I’m so happy that I did. Ottawa CEA offers amazing options and resources for new parents and speakers to both the birthing parent as well as the birth partner. The language used is also very inclusive. The instructors are knowledgeable and they answer every question you have. I feel more ready leaving the course to have my first child.
