Pathways to Education: Parenting + Life Skills Classes

Supporting the Community One Class at a Time.

This is the best program...

This is the best program I have ever had, I love it. May God bless you and all your time for the wonderful work that you are doing it’s awesome. – A.C.

I have recommended it to others...

I have really enjoy my time with the parenting classes and Sierra Pregnancy and I have recommended it to others. – R.C.

...took 11 pages of notes...

I took about an entire day to listen to the class and wrote 11 pages of notes because the class is very specific and detailed in information; to make a new mother feel like she is winning! I even shared that with the director when I picked up the baby seat. If there is ever a way or a chance for me to retake this class even down the road it would be amazing … amazing for me! That class offers information a woman can’t get anywhere. – M.L

it means the world to my growing family...

I am very thankful to be in your program, it means the world to my growing family ❤️ – K.W.

The lessons learned are enough incentive...

I want to say thanks on behalf of everyone who benefitted from these classes and training. The incentives are definitely a plus, but after going through some of the classes, the lessons learned are enough incentive. However, I will be happy to select something I need and its the tools, our family had a house fire and we lost everything, so I’m desperately needing tools.  – E.B.

I wish I had known this before...

I have been enjoying the classes so much! I wish I had known this before so I can be a better Mom but even now i have the knowledge and i will try to start it.  – A.C.

I am really liking the classes!

I am really liking the classes! I feel like I am learning a lot. This is why I end up taking so many notes. I am really excited about some of the new classes that were added to the updated list too! – M.P.

I can't pass on an offer...

Awe thank you so much! I just feel like I can’t pass on an offer that is going to teach me something so helpful for our future child! – H.S.

We have been blessed a lot...

I completed all the lessons I/we have been blessed a lot by going through these lessons. May the Lord continue blessing you and the whole team and your families for all the work you do to bless the families by teaching all these very important parenting principles. – E.B.

Nurse-Taught Classes
