Specialised Antenatal Classes to meet your needs

Choose the class that suits you best

1:1 Antenatal Course

Preparing for the arrival of your baby is exciting and sometime nerve wrecking! My 1:1 antenatal courses take you through preparing for labour, early labour at home, when to go to hospital, informed decision making, communicating with your health care providers, stages of labour and what to expect, physiology of birth, pain management, partner support, birth planning, care of the newborn, postpartum support and breastfeeding or whatever focus you would like to take! These are delivered privately online or in your own home (in-person 1:1 antenatal classes in Dublin only).

Group Antenatal Course

Learning in a group and be fun and you can also meet others from your area who are expecting a baby. My in-person group Antenatal courses take place in venues across North Dublin. During the course I will take you through preparing for labour, managing early labour at home , when to go to hospital, informed decision making, communicating with your health care providers, stages of labour and what to expect, physiology of birth, pain management, partner support, birth planning, care of the newborn, postpartum support and breastfeeding! I take a maximum of 8 couples so there is plenty of time to ask questions and get to know each other.

VBAC Workshop

VBAC or repeat CS? It can be a hard decision to make without all the relevant information. My VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarean) workshops are a great way to prepare for the birth of a baby following a previous caesarean birth. This evidenced based workshop will leave you feeling confident, empowered and educated about birthing after caesarean. You and your birth partner will learn how to ensure you have all the information needed to make decisions during labour and birth, how to reduce the risk of interventions and how your birth partner can support you. These workshops are delivered in groups (online only presently) or privately online or in your own home.

Breastfeeding Preparation Workshop

Thinking about Breastfeeding can be exciting, but sometimes daunting too! How will it go? Will I be able? How will I know they are getting enough? My Breastfeeding Preparation Workshops are fun and interactive, and both you and your partner/support person will leave feeling confident, and with lots of new information to support a successful breastfeeding journey. The workshops cover the basics of how breastfeeding works, latch and positioning, how to know baby is getting enough, antenatal expression, pumping, common pitfalls and solutions and much more.

Multiples Antenatal Course

This bespoke antenatal course for parents expecting multiple babies is only offered 1:1. The comprehensive course covers, baby positioning for birth, labour and preterm labour, attending the hospital, pain management, vaginal birth, caesarean birth, birth interventions, partner support, breastfeeding and pumping, NICU and caring for your babies during the 4th Trimester. In-person courses can be arranged for people based in Dublin (€350)  and online for those further afield (€275). Please contact to enquire.

Refresher classes are for anyone who has given birth before. They provide a review of preparing for labour, labouring at home comfortably, when to go to hospital, informed decision making, communicating with your health care providers, stages of labour and what to expect, physiology of birth, pain management, partner support, birth planning or whatever focus you would like to take in the time available. 

Available in North Dublin Only

This four week course will help you reduce anxiety for pregnancy and birth. Over each session our small group will get to know each other, talk about pregnancy & parenting, learn how to live mindfully, as well as trying out some mindful practice and relaxation techniques. Mindfulness is a lot more than meditation and this class combines my experience as an antenatal educator with mindful practice. Below price includes current €30 discount offered due to the ongoing stress of the pandemic on pregnant people. 

Research has shown that autistic people (and possibly those with other neurodivergences such as ADHD or SPD) face additional difficulties in the modern day birthing environment and we may also struggle with the sensory intensities of new parenting in different ways to neurotypicals. This bespoke consultancy is to help prepare a plan for you to present to your care providers for labour, birth and the early post partum period that helps them understand your needs. We may also look at the post partum period at home. We will start with some email communication to find out the basics of your needs and then follow this up with a 2 hour live consultation. The live consultation can be done over Zoom, telephone or a chat service such as WhatsApp, whichever is your preference. After the consultation I will send you your plan which you are free to edit or return to me for changes.
