Classes are popular, so please book early to avoid disappointment. Tell your midwife at the time of booking into hospital that you wish to attend these classes.

Our parenting program is informal and interactive and is designed to answer your questions regarding:

  • Preparing for the birth of your baby
  • Parenting skills
  • Baby’s needs
