My husband and I attended ante natal sessions with Emily in June 2024 and we were made to feel welcome and supported from the get go. Emily had some lovely ice breaker games to help integrate the group and Emily truly made us feel that no question was silly to ask. I would highly recommend these sessions to any parents to be.
While online courses provide convenience, nothing beats the value of in-person learning, especially when it comes to something as important as preparing for childbirth.
Face-to-face interactions allow for real-time feedback and support, which is critical when discussing sensitive topics like labour, birth, and parenting. You’ll benefit from the collective wisdom of our experienced instructor and fellow parents, building a community that lasts beyond the class.
Emily, our lead instructor, brings years of experience in prenatal education. She’s not just an educator but a mentor who is passionate about supporting parents through every step of their journey. Her approachable teaching style ensures that no question goes unanswered and that every parent feels prepared and confident.
Our comprehensive sessions cover all the essential pregnancy topics you’ll need to feel confident heading into childbirth and parenting.
We provide detailed guidance on what to expect during labor, including pain management options, birthing positions, and what to pack for the hospital. You’ll leave our sessions feeling ready for whatever comes your way.
In addition to childbirth, we cover critical newborn care skills, including basic first aid, feeding, and soothing techniques. These practical tips will empower you to handle the early days and weeks with confidence.
If you’re looking for NHS-provided resources, the NHS offers ‘The Real Birth Digital Programme’—an online modular course that provides essential information but lacks the personal touch of Face-to-face sessions. While this digital program is a great starting point, we believe that nothing beats the hands-on guidance and emotional support you receive from Classroom-based programs.
In Gloucester, you have several options for prenatal education, but not all are created equal. Our sessions are designed to be intimate and interactive, allowing you to connect with other local parents and receive personalised attention. Whether you’re looking for group sessions, one-on-one private in-person classes, Hypnobirthing or a blend of all, we offer the right fit for your lifestyle and needs.
Unlike NCT programs, our local groups are smaller, fostering a more personal environment where you can ask questions and engage deeply with the material. This comparison ensures that you get more out of each session, as our instructors focus on the specific concerns and needs of the group.
Pregnancy education is about more than just the birth—it’s about preparing you for the early days of parenting.
We guide you through the postpartum period, focusing on both your recovery and the care of your newborn. Understanding what to expect after birth helps ease the transition into parenthood.
From setting up your home for a newborn to understanding their sleep patterns, we offer practical advice that makes those first few weeks at home a little less daunting. Sign up to our antenatal classes near Gloucester today and get a discovery call booked with Emily!
Choosing the right pregnancy session is crucial for aligning your learning with your pregnancy journey.
When choosing a program, consider factors like the class size, the experience of the instructor, and the comprehensiveness of the curriculum. Our sessions are designed to be thorough yet flexible, accommodating the varying needs of parents-to-be.
It’s essential to start your prenatal education at the right time in your pregnancy. We offer guidance on when to begin based on your due date, ensuring you have the information you need when you need it.
Our courses are taught by Emily Boson, a qualified antenatal FEDANT educator who brings a wealth of knowledge and practical experience to every session. This ensures that the information you receive is both current and practical, rooted in real-world expertise.
To better serve expectant parents in the Gloucester area, we are excited to offer one free space every month in our pregnancy classes.
