You are growing a new little human and soon you will be bringing them home. It is an exciting and nerve-wracking time. Whether this is your first baby or your third, we’d love to help you learn some of the practical skills that will help you navigate the early days after your baby is born.
This 9 week program is delivered in two series with 5 antenatal sessions (also available as one full-day session) and 4 postnatal sessions covering topics such as communicating within your relationship, taking good care of yourself and practical skills to care for baby. The workshop series is not a replacement for your hospital antenatal classes, it is designed to complement them.
“Helena went to all the ante-natal classes she was offered.
She wrote lots of lists. There was nothing she did not know about giving birth. In the event, she was heavily sedated and missed most of it.
There are no classes at all about what to do next.” ¬ Hazeley & Morris, 2017
Don’t be Helena, come and see us 😊
