With Child™: A Childbirth Education Classic
Childbirth Graphics has a long, dedicated history focusing on the goal of producing the best childbirth education materials available for nurturing healthy babies and growing healthy families. Our company was founded in 1980 by Jamie E Bolane, who drew upon her combined experiences as a childbirth educator, designer, and consumer advocate to provide growing families with engaging educational resources for each stage of pregnancy, labour, birth, breastfeeding, and early parenting.
In 1993, Childbirth Graphics became a division of WRS Group, a family of companies (including Health Edco) dedicated to creating innovative 3-D displays, hands-on models, informative print products, and promotional materials aimed at improving lives through health education and awareness.
Soon after Childbirth Graphics joined WRS Group, creator Bolane collaborated with the Childbirth Graphics team to produce With Child, Childbirth Graphics’ award-winning, comprehensive childbirth education programme. Continuously updated to include the latest information for parents, With Child products remain the go-to resources that educators turn to again and again to help expectant parents understand the full spectrum of childbearing—from prepregnancy planning through pregnancy, labour and birth, breastfeeding, postpartum, and early parenting.
Today, our With Child product line includes an interactive pregnancy simulator, a pregnancy calculator, a chart set, and three spiral-bound compilations that are must-have childbirth education essentials. Each of these spiral-bound resources shares the same detailed, classic With Child artwork that is perfect to help expectant parents understand the many physical changes of pregnancy and how their baby is developing inside the womb.
How do you select the right With Child spiral-bound collection to serve a specific educational situation? Let’s take a closer look to see how each of these With Child products can best serve your particular childbirth teaching needs.
With Child Life-Size Display
Featuring large, life-size (46 cm x 61 cm), overlapping images, our With Child Life-Size Display is perfect for group teaching, although it also works well for one-on-one instruction.
With hard, sturdy board pages, overlapping images depict a developing pregnancy at 1, 2, 3–4, 5–6, 7–8, and 9 months, making it ideal to talk about how the body changes to nurture a developing baby, the importance of antenatal care, and more. Information is provided about antenatal care, nutrition, warning signs during pregnancy, and how to know when you are in labour. Additional images show a full-term uterus and the uterus 6 weeks postpartum. The back of the display features the art of our popular Timeline of Pregnancy Chart, which depicts foetal development and parallel uterine growth across 40 weeks of pregnancy.
With Child Large-Size Spiral-Bound Charts
Our With Child Large-Size Spiral-Bound Charts combines our classic With Child artwork with comprehensive pregnancy and childbearing information, making it ideal for group settings and to promote group discussions. Coloured tabs make it easy for facilitators to move through the more than 100 childbearing topics covered, from preconception planning and genetics through various stages of months of pregnancy to labour, newborns, breastfeeding and the postpartum period. Examples of covered topics include:
- Preconception planning
- Genetics
- Human reproduction
- Pregnancy hazards

This all-in-one resource is a great way to help expectant parents understand what is happening throughout pregnancy and prepare them for what to expect during childbirth and in the early days of parenthood.
With Child Desk Version
Although the life-size and large-size versions of With Child are well-suited for group instruction, our With Child Desk Version comes in a book-size (28 cm x 22 cm) that works well for one-on-one instruction. Featuring the same, rich, warm-hued illustrations in our larger versions of With Child, this 78-page, book version also provides comprehensive information detailing the childbearing cycle from preconception planning through 6 months postpartum.
Sections in the With Child Desk Version cover:
- Preconception Planning
- Foetal Development
- Healthy Pregnancy
