Parent Education

Preparation for Birth Classes:

Our classes are run only by qualified and registered Midwives. Midwives are recognised throughout the UK as the lead professional for normal pregnancy, labour and postnatal care. This ensures that all the information provided to you is from experts using only the most up-to-date research available.

The Private Birth Centre recognises that long courses are expensive and laborious. Therefore we provide only the most relevant information, in an accessible format to help you achieve the most natural birth possible. We are very pleased to offer individual and group sessions on preparation for home birth, active birth, waterbirth, and hospital birth.
