Support Every Step of the Way

Internationally recognised, useful, and practical Antenatal Classes designed to equip you with the skills and knowledge for a positive pregnancy and birth experience.

What you will learn:

The Process of Labour and Childbirth

Your body is beautifully designed for birth. In this class, we’ll cover the basics of labour and birth — including key anatomy, stages of labour, signs of impending labour, and when to head to your clinic or birthing centre.
We’ll help you replace fear with understanding by exploring how labour works, why most of it is pain-free, and how to work with your body’s natural rhythms. Discover why labour pain is often misunderstood — and how it can be a powerful ally.

A woman’s Experience and Needs in Labour

This class explores what labour feels like and what a mother needs—mentally, emotionally, and physically—through each stage. Learn how to respond to contractions to ease pain, how needs shift as labour progresses, and how partners can provide meaningful support.We’ll also cover natural pain management techniques, the difference between pain and suffering, and help partners define the role they’d like to play during the birth.

Medical Pain Relief, Epidurals, and Caesarean Birth

With caesarean births on the rise, it’s important for parents to understand their options and feel fully involved in the experience. This class covers medical pain relief, epidurals, and what to expect during a caesarean. We’ll explore how knowledge, preparation, and informed choices can help parents feel more confident, in control, and connected to their baby’s birth—no matter how it unfolds.

Your Amazing Newborn and Your Post-Partum Adjustment

Discover what to expect from your newborn’s appearance, reflexes, and early behaviours, based on the latest research. We’ll help you understand what’s normal in the early days and guide you through the emotional and physical adjustments of new parenthood — from sleep deprivation and crying to caring for your body, resuming intimacy, and maintaining your relationship. We also cover how to recognise and seek help for postnatal depression.

Baby Bath and Baby Care

Learn the essentials of bathing and caring for your newborn with live demonstrations, practical tips, and hands-on practice. We’ll cover baby bath techniques, bath aids, choosing baby care products, and real advice from new parents about life at home with a newborn. You’ll also get the chance to practice changing and dressing your "baby" — our trusty dolls!

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding is a natural process, but it’s also a learned skill — much like learning to dance with a new partner. This class focuses on the first critical weeks, giving you practical tips and confidence for a smooth start.We’ll cover early feeding, skin-to-skin contact, achieving a good latch, recognising hunger cues, and feeding frequently — helping you and your baby find your rhythm together.
