What our customers say about us

    Great classes with wonderful instructors! My husband and I are first-time parents away from family, so we wanted to join classes to have some idea of how to take care of our baby. Baby Academy's classes prepared us for childbirth, the first weeks, baby safety, development, solids, and more! That made being new parents a little less nerve-wracking.

    The class was informative and interesting, and part of our package was being able to contact someone and hear back within 24 hours. I didn't hear back and it turned out there was an issue with the system.

    The Baby Academy went above and beyond to rectify things for me. I've never had better customer service. I would highly recommend these courses and more so for the customer service itself. Definitely worth it, especially if you haven't been able to attend other classes due to Covid and closures.

    I enrolled in the Ultimate Baby First Aid class because I became a first time grandmother just three weeks ago. I was initially concerned that an online class would not leave me comfortable with knowing how to address emergencies that might require me to perform CPR or deal with a choking situation. After completing the class with the incredible instructor Kaila, however, I realize that I need not have been concerned. Kaila was so reassuring, thorough and knowledgeable. While I hope to never have to put into practice everything I learned, I now feel confident in my ability to know what to do and how to do it should the need arise. Whether you are a new parent, a caregiver, a family member or friend, or like me a new grandparent, I highly recommend this Baby Academy course. You will not regret it!

    Wonderful informative course. We had watched other videos previously and weren't sure we wanted to spend money on a course but we were glad we did. We started with the free courses offered by the Baby Academy and decided to take the bigger 7 hour one. We were able to ask lots of questions and come away feeling a lot more prepared.
