Always wanted to start your own antenatal classes? Or are you needing to breathe new life into the classes you present?
This course will teach you how to host and present your own antenatal classes, and give you the tools to help you get started or support your existing antenatal classes.

Every expectant couple experiences anxiety about the many changes they face – how will pregnancy unfold, is their baby going to be fine, will they cope with labour and how will they handle their newborn. Antenatal teachers must offer honest, evidence-based and reassuring advice.
There is so much misinformation out there – no wonder that pregnant women and new mothers are anxious!
By offering classes that help relieve anxiety and foster self-esteem, antenatal teachers will help ensure:
A confident mom-to-be who will enjoy her pregnancy
An empowered woman who will birth well
A new mother who will go on to take challenges in her stride
