Who can come to classes with me?
I encourage you to bring your partner or a support person - classes and topics are designed to include your partner or a support person.
Are you qualified to facilitate antenatal education?
Yes, I am a fully qualified Child Birth Educator (Diploma), I qualified in 2005 and have been facilitating and teaching antenatal classes for 18 years, during that time I have taught over 5000 thousand parents.
Are these classes for everyone?
My classes are great for those looking for a broad spectrum of topics, covering all possibilities (natural and medical), your options during labour and birth and early weeks with your newborn. This information is current and delivered in a factual, impartial, non-biased way, giving you the tools to make your own choices and decisions. All in a fun, friendly, safe and comfortable environment where you can ask the curly questions and get the answers, and more importantly, make connections with other parents due around the same time while having a few laughs along the way.
Will I get a coffee group?
Yes, this starts as a private Facebook page, which you and your partner/support person are welcome to be part of, helping you make those important connections. I will post links and resources, backing up what we cover during classes and interesting information to continue filling up your parenting toolbox.
What if I can't or don't want to attend 4 weeks of classes?
I have a couple of options for you, a Private Consultation is perfect if you want one-on-one education that is totally personalised, this is 4 hours. Boutique Combo Classes are held throughout the year, Online Antenatal Program - contact me for more information about any of these.
Have I seen you in the Media?
Yes, I’ve featured in Pregnancy, Bump & Baby Magazine, Oh Baby Magazine, Good Magazine, and other online publications and platforms. I have also written over 100 articles for the NZHerald.
