# Gaux

> Parenting, on your terms. Expert-led classes, live or on-demand. The team you build before you need it — IBCLCs, doulas, perinatal therapists, sleep consultants, RDNs, OBs, and more.

Gaux is a parenting platform that organizes classes, expert practitioners, and community by life stage — from family building through professional development. Membership is $249/year with a 30-day free trial.

## Editorial principles

- Information that improves your life, taught by people who've done the work long enough to know what matters.
- Sorted by stage: trying to conceive, pregnancy, newborn, toddler, you (the parent), professional development.
- Every instructor passes a five-step vetting process (credentials, references, sample teaching, voice alignment, continuing review).
- Content is not medical advice; consult licensed clinicians for individual care.
