Private Labour and Birth Preparation Course
With a Private Birth Days Labour and Birth Preparation Course you can expect the very highest standards of antenatal education which can be flexible and tailored to your own needs.
Perhaps choosing to attend a private course is an ideal solution for those who find the standard eight week evening courses too much of a commitment on their time. It would also be suitable as a refresher course for your second or subsequent baby, where perhaps the issues of childcare would need to be considered.
Our courses are informal, relaxed, respectful and practical in style, with a comprehensive support pack of the topics covered.
The following is an example of the topics we cover, but we have several packages available and if required, we can extend or adjust the course to suit your needs.
- Recognising that labour has started
- When to go to hospital or call the midwife
- Stages of labour
- Active Birth Skills - positions, breathing and relaxation techniques
- Caesarean birth
- Pain relief options
- Medical interventions - what may be needed and why
- Birth partners - what you can do to help
- Communicating confidently with the health professionals
