Teacher Certification Program

We are pleased to offer a comprehensive certification program you can participate in at your own pace. Upon completion of the program, you will be a Certified Childbirth Educator (CCE), qualified to work in a variety of settings including private offices, hospitals and birth centers.

Our program, designed to be completed in one-to-two years, allows candidates to work at their own pace with the help and guidance of a mentor.

The Childbirth Education Association of Metropolitan New York's (CEA/MNY) Teacher Certification Program (TCP) is an entry-level program designed to prepare lay people and health care professionals to teach independent childbirth classes. Founded on concern for maternal and child health, our program promotes proper nutrition, exercise, relaxation, consumer activism, family-centered maternity care and breastfeeding.

Some graduates use their certification in conjunction with other advanced degrees, such as midwifery, nutrition, or public health. Regardless of how you choose to use your certification, CEA/MNY will list your biography on our website and provide you with referrals.

We are proud to offer a uniquely well-rounded childbirth education program, one that produces instructors who are engaged, informed, and passionate about enriching and improving the experiences of birthing women and their families.
