Refresher classes and extra support

Refresher Classes
A one-off refresher session for second-time (or more) couples.

This is an opportunity to get together with others to prepare for the birth and new baby.

The course covers:

• Previous experience and hopes this time.

• Practicing of breathing and active birth positions.

• Partner's role during birth.

• Combining new baby with older child(ren) and sibling rivalry.

The class lasts for two hours and is arranged according to need.



Second time round we had forgotten the positions and breathing etc.

The refresher made it a breeze and really special knowing exactly what was what - even down to the noises I made, even though I seemed on another planet.

Both my husband and I found the refresher class extremely useful. Having already a young child we found ourselves spending little time thinking about the new addition coming to our family and still less thinking about the second birth.

To have a chance to sit together quietly with other couples and discuss some of the fears, concerns and hopes for the arrival of our second child was very useful - it gave us a chance to focus on the new life coming to join the family.
