How is the course structured?
We would come to your house so you can be in the comfort of your own home.
The course is usually four sessions lasting 2.5 to 3 hours each. We will take a break and we can stop any time if you need to move – we know being pregnant can be uncomfortable.
Private online courses allow for more flexibility so we can discuss your needs and availability.
We try to be as flexible as possible to suit your needs.
What do you need to do?
- The course is for both the birthing parent and the birth partner to attend. If this doesn’t fit your circumstances, please get in touch and we can have a chat about it.
- You will need somewhere to sit comfortably – and somewhere that we can sit 2m apart, preferably with good ventilation.
