Hi and welcome! We're fairly new to the area too, moved here in December. I'd check with the hospital as well as at your OBs office. Google might be your best bet too!
I highly recommend the DVD Laugh and Learn about Childbirth: Lamaze and Beyond. Because my husband was in the military during my first pregnancy we didn't have time to take a birthing class. I ended up having a c/s because our son was breech but the DVD was very informative and we definitely felt prepared for labor.
I'm sure there's some in SEattle. There are some birthing classes at Evergreen, but I think they just have the general childbirthing class and hypnobirthing. I read a book on hypnobirthing for my vbac and found it very empowering!

We took Bradley classes and LOVED them. Our instructor is in West Seattle, so it might be a drive for you. I think you can search the Bradley website for a class near you.
We took them and loved loved it!!! We did them with Kathleen Nelson. She does them at her house in Shoreline. We were driving from Redmond then, and it took about 30 mins to get there. Pretty close! She does nice small groups, and we really got to know her and the other couples. She is also a doula, so you could really ask her anything. Her info:

GOOD LUCK and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!
