These sessions prepare preteen and teens to navigate their bodies’ changes throughout puberty and early adulthood. Classes are separated into topic focus and suggested age ranges. These classes are intended to include far more than a school discussion! Get provider level insight broken down for each age group. Examples of topics covered include learning your anatomy, physiology of the menstrual cycle, hygiene practices to support good health, contraception and safe sexual practices. To accommodate parent and child vs child only preferences there are several options for the puberty classes. If you need more information please email at classes@mindfulmidwifery.net or call 302-922-6200.

Mother & Daughter Puberty Class
This class is for mother and daughter pairs. This interactive class is geared towards 9-13 year old (per parent preference) girls. Content focuses on getting to know the medical language for your body, puberty, the menstrual cycle, menstrual cycle products, hygiene practices and body safety. This parent/child format will ensure that both parent and child feel comfortable discussing puberty together after the class. This class will not cover topics surrounding sex. A “period starter kit” will be made and explained. Even if you have started the puberty conversation and/or your child has had their first period, this class will build on the information you have already provided. You might even learn some new things yourself! Class max is 4-5 mother/daughter pairs.

Navigating Information on Sex
This class geared towards 12-15 year olds (per parent preference) starts the safe sex conversation. Topics focus on correct language, correct information regarding sex, proper hygiene and when to seek medical attention or guardian intervention. Unfortunately, teens have access to too much information from both their friends and social media. Regardless of morality, spiritual or religious practices and beliefs this class is relevant to prepare your teen to navigate exposure to these topics safely. This class serves to prevent and/or correct misinformation in a “knowledge is safety” format. This class does not replace or diminish a family’s or individual’s spiritual, moral or religious belief system regarding these topics. To encourage open conversation and safe space this class is a child only class.
Parent and Teen Contraceptive Class
There is so much out there about contraception and cycle control…what’s accurate? Which one is right for your teen? As parents, we might not have all the information we need to make an informed decision with our teens. Even worse, sometimes you disagree on the method that seems right. Come together and get more information than an online search or a gyn visit would give you. Each method will be discussed extensively with questions encouraged throughout. Both of you will be more prepared to navigate this important health topic for years to come.
