1st baby preparation classes - what are the classes, and answers to some questions you may have.
Our one-to-one 1st baby antenatal classes can be tailored from the following topics.
Classes can be arranged at a time to suit you, be it weekends, mid-week or evenings (subject to availability of course..).
Why should I come to these classes?
These classes set you up for life with your baby so you have the knowledge and reference material to know what to do in those early days and weeks. They also help you with all that you'll need to buy and get ready in advance so that you go into labour feeling prepared. Many other antenatal classes focus on the birth, or will just touch on baby care e.g. how to change a nappy.
Our classes give you much more detail and practical tips and tricks. Parents-to-be come away from the classes surprised at just how much there is to know, especially about sleep and routines, and they feel so pleased that they have thought about these areas before the baby arrives, to start off on the right foot. Please check out of testimonials page to read some of the lovely feedback.
