Online Virtual Prenatal Classes

Are you looking for an Online Prenatal Childbirth Class that you can participate in from the comfort of your own home? There have been many changes over the past few months due to COVID-19. One of those changes has been the increased use of technology. We are fortunate to be living in a time when staying connected is a bit easier, even if it from a distance and over a screen.

Following the announcement of the pandemic, Bean Family Wellness quickly adapted to fully digitize Prenatal Classes, Specialty Classes, and meetings with families. As of June 25th, 2020, Bean Family Wellness was able to re-open the option for in-person group prenatal and specialty classes for families who prefer in-person education. However, virtual participation continues to be available to all families who prefer online.

Virtual Prenatal Childbirth Classes and Virtual Specialty Prenatal Classes like the Newborn & Baby Care 101 Classes or Breastfeeding 101 Class (plus others) are LIVE, instructor-led, and available online to families in Winnipeg, Rural Manitoba, and Canada-wide. You can choose to participate in a Mixed Virtual class (some participants online, some in-person), or a Purely Virtual class (all participants online).

For group classes, families can participate LIVE from the comfort of their own home or cottage. Families receive a digital resource folder, supplementary class materials, and instruction to prepare them for participating online. Couples are able to ask questions LIVE, participate in group/couple/independent activities with the rest of class, and view the instructor, powerpoint slides, and videos LIVE.

For private classes, families receive the same options but with 1:1 instructor privately with their instructor.

In these unprecedented times, it is understandable that every family has a different comfort level and preference. Not 100% sure about virtual classes but curious about participating in an in-person prenatal class in Winnipeg? In-person group classes have been adapted to ensure physical distancing requirements are maintained, COVID-19 screening is completed for all participants and there are no shared materials during class. Private in-person classes are also available within Winnipeg, Manitoba and 20-minutes from the Winnipeg city perimeter highway. Bean Family Wellness also offers a 2-part private prenatal childbirth class (part 1 online and part 2 in-person).

Fall Family Photography In Winnipeg, Manitoba

Fall is always the most popular time for Photography Sessions in Winnipeg.

If you go to some of the most popular locations for photos in Winnipeg and Rural Manitoba (during the ‘GOLDEN HOUR’), you’ll often see many families and their photographers capturing new memories to update their walls and get ready for holiday cards and gifts.

But with living in Manitoba, many of you already know how quick the leaves seem to drop after the leaves start to change colour. And this year, the colours seem to be changing even faster than normal.

Besides managing the Pregnancy Winnipeg website, I’m the photographer behind Imagery by Bean, Professional Photography Service of Bean Family Wellness.

I have been specializing in capturing special photographs for maternity, birth stories, babies, children, and families since 2012. I love working with families in Winnipeg as well as Rural Manitoba. I have also had the pleasure of being featured in several internationally published magazines for my work with local families.

Because of the quick start to Fall this year, if you haven’t booked a session yet, now is the perfect time to avoid missing the Fall colours!
