All Educators at birthED are fully vaccinated. We have no way of regulating whether all students are vaccinated. You will be asked to sign a COVID-19 Liability Waiver form and will have a screening form sent the day before class to ensure non-symptomatic and reduced risks of having COVID-19 exposure in the class-room. Class size is limited to 5 couples: 10 humans plus teacher. MASKING WILL BE DECIDED BY THE GROUP AS A WHOLE VIA A SURVEY BEFORE CLASS.
IN PERSON AND VIRTUAL OPTION CLASS - LIMITED CLASS SIZE - MASKS RECOMMENDED (WILL BE REQUIRED IF COVID STATUS LEVEL ELEVATES OR IF STUDENTS DECIDE TO MASK AS A GROUP)
