I offer antenatal classes in various formats to suit the differing needs of mothers,
couples etc. as follows :
Five Week Course
£115 per couple - usually held on a Wednesday or Thursday evening, lasting 2 hours. Ideally
completed by approximately 36 weeks.
Relaxed, down-to-earth sessions, include compiling a list of everything that is on your "need
to know" list which we proceed to cover over the following weeks. Topics include - natural/active birth, interventions
and how to avoid them, all types of pain relief and births, avoidance of stitches, postnatal period, breastfeeding and
other tips on coping with baby. Breathing/relaxation and basic massage techniques will be shown and practised.
The five week course is a particularly good opportunity to interact and chat with
other couples, discussing and sharing anxieties and experiences, and forming postnatal support networks.
Weekend Intensive Course
£140 per couple - Saturday/Sunday, 10.30 a.m. - 3.30 p.m. Ideally completed by
approximately 36 weeks.
This weekend is suited to couples who are finding it difficult to commit to five consecutive
weeks. All topics as described in the five week course are covered.
Refresher Classes
£60 for two sessions. Day or evening classes.
Ideally suited to women who perhaps have had a "gap" between babies or would just like to update
their knowledge and learn some new techniques and ideas. Includes breathing/relaxation, massage techniques and
breastfeeding advice.
One-to-One Classes
£35 per hour, plus travelling costs.
For those unable to attend classes or who would prefer classes in their own homes.
Note:
- All classes are small and relaxed giving plenty of opportunity to ask questions.
- For all classes, comfortable clothes should be worn and two pillows brought.
- Handouts distributed at each class.
- Refreshments provided.
- Five Week, Weekend Intensive, and Refresher Courses are held in South
Warnborough.
