Becoming Parents Classes

Effective October 3, 2011, the routes to get to Packard Children’s Hospital and our outpatient clinics in Palo Alto will change due to Project: Renewal construction work. Please view the new maps and directions.

Lucile Packard Children's Hospital's Becoming Parents Perinatal Education Program is designed to help expectant parents and their families prepare for the birth of a child.

We offer classes for both Before the Birth and After the Birth of your baby. Below you will find general information on when and how to register for classes as well as information on our Birth Center Orientations. If you need assistance along the way or if you have any questions, please call us at (650) 724-4601.
