Antenatal Classes

Prepare for birth and early parenthood in a calm, supportive and welcoming environment, spread across three relaxed evening sessions, one social session and a postnatal social session.🌿

​

Based at Henllys Village Hall, our midwife-led antenatal course is designed to give you the time and space to build your knowledge gradually, ask questions as you go, and feel fully prepared for the journey ahead.

Led by experienced midwives, each session combines evidence-based education with a warm, friendly atmosphere, helping you feel informed, supported and confident in your choices.

Just as importantly, these sessions offer the opportunity to connect with other local parents. Over the course period, you’ll naturally build relationships with others on the same journey, creating the beginnings of your support network for those early postnatal days. 

 

Suitable for:

• Expectant parents in their third trimester, ideally before 37 weeks
