You may be pregnant with a subsequent child and need a few sessions to refresh your knowledge or introduce your partner to family life.
My Refresher antenatal 4 session courses run for subsequent mums and partners and are online using Zoom.
Anyone interested in an NCT style course, giving research and evidence based information, an opportunity for pregnant mums and partners to meet other local parents due at similar dates, discuss labour choices, relaxation techniques, labour positions, pain relief, postnatal concerns and breastfeeding advice and access to many support networks in the area.
By the end of the course, you’ll feel more confident about birth and parenting, have a birth plan that suits your choices and have a great support network of like minded friends.
Your parenting journey can start here on the right path for you.
