Prenatal Classes taught by:

Lorraine Merson RN, CCE
As a mother of 2 children (her little boy Evan now 18 months and her little girl Kristina now 3 years old), Lorraine is a Registered Nurse with previous experience working in Labour & Delivery/Obstetrics at both Milton and Oakville hospitals, among others in her nursing career. Recently having children has enabled her to teach her prenatal classes with so much more passion and convicition then ever before, as she truly enjoys helping expecting parents prepare for their big day, and the months of new parenthood that follows.
Lorraine has been offering Professional Prenatal classes in both small groups and private classes in the Halton Region for several years from the comfort of her own home which she has made" pregnant friendly" - which means very comfortable seating, tasty snacks and all of the luxuries of home. She always had this vision even early on as she began teaching prenatal classes in the hospital setting, and knew that someday when she would teach on her own, she would add all of the extras that were lacking in the typical prenatal classes out there. There is a lot more attention to the small details to help couples feel more comfortable, engaged and excited to be attending Birthing and Babies Prenatal classes. We hope you enjoy it as much as we love having you attend :-)
Dear Expectant Parents,
I must admit, after having been through the whole experience personally (I recently gave birth to a beautiful baby boy named Evan, in December 2006 by caesarean and also my little angel, daughter Kristina, back in March 2005 through a vaginal delivery) I can’t help but feel completely blessed and thankful for being given the priveledge of being the mother of these two precious little bundles. You too, will soon experience the greatest miracle and love of your life- your new baby.
Since then, it has been my passion to learn the ins and outs of how to be a parent. As the new mom in me learned about this role, the teacher in me kept taking mental notes to pass along to you, my future expectant parents. Now, a few years later, I would love to share with you(as a new mom and a registered nurse) information not only about your pregnancy, labour, birth, and delivery, but also lots of helpful, practical and useful knowledge about the first few months at home with your new baby, (and anything else that comes to mind!).
Sincerely,
Lorraine Merson
