This class is taught by Amy Brooks Murphy. I was referred to this class by a good friend and…read morecontinue to run into other parents who have attended. If you're interested in natural childbirth and postpartum education, this is the place for you. The general consensus- this class is friggin amazing. Amy creates a really open, relaxed environment from starting each class with a little get to know you activity among the parents, leaving space for questions, rocking awesome Bob jams, and burning incense. Many laughs are shared too :) Who knew you could have fun and get educated when learning about a mucus plug. She does have a uterus shaped pool that class is hosted in/at during the summer months. That is something to look forward to. The class is 12 weeks long. I chose the Monday night class from 6:15-8. There are other options. The price is $295

I had to get certified and I was looking for an office that would work with my schedule…read more I searched around and this office came up. I called the office and the lady (Kiki) was very pleasant. She was willing to work with my availability which is a big plus because I have a busy schedule. The class was straight forward and we went over first aid, watched videos, went over questions and she took the time to answer all my questions. After, we went over CPR and it was nice to see the mannequin that connects to a smart device and tells you if you are doing it correctly or not. I will be honest, I wanted to cut the face off like Dwight in Office. I restrained myself! ! All in all, she is great and you can tell that she has a lot of experience. I highly encourage anyone to attend this office if you need/want to get certified. You won't be disappointed!

The best part of taking the classes at 411 is the trainer, Kiki! She helps make the almost 3 hours (for each class) go by rather quickly and has some hilarious stories about personal experiences that keep it fun! They have all kinds of things you may need for your home/car/etc that can help prevent accidents from happening and then give you the training you need in case they do! Highly recommend checking it out if you're interested in safety classes or information!

When I asked for details and for us to move forward from this and not judge an opinion, they would not answer and response. Instead they said that they will not go on with doing business with me in hopes that get help for myself and maybe try again in 3 months. They also said that they never talk to anybody else that this was due to my conversations with them. However, I have an email stating that that's exactly why they would not talk to me was due to a fact of somebody else stating something. So to me I feel that that's lying. It makes them liars on top of that. Would not recommend

This is the best place to go for passport or citizenship application photos for Canada (I'm sure…read morefor other non-US countries too) in the Des Moines area- and if you have infants or little kids for their US passport photos too. Sure if you're an adult, for US passports you could just have them taken at the post office if that's where you're submitting your app, but if you want/need photos done before submitting your US passport- definitely go to Christian photos above Walgreens/CVS, etc. They actually have proper lighting and the set up to do infants and younger kids, and the knowledge and patience to get it right. Print off a copy of the photo spec sheets to leave with them- they request that so that they can refer to it while sizing and printing the photos, to ensure they meet the specs. The attention to detail is appreciated. Save yourself the time and headache of asking around at all the drugstores and shipping places that do passport photos on the side, because those folks usually don't know how to change the settings on their machines to do anything beyond US passport photos, or just don't know how picky some other countries can be (Canada for example) about the specs, shadows, head and shoulders squared, etc. And definitely aren't going to be equipped to do all the takes it requires to do infants or little kid photos. It's only slightly more than doing them at a Walgreens, and well worth the peace of mind knowing that it's not going to get rejected because your photos weren't done correctly. If you need this type of photo- definitely go check out Christian photo!
