Antenatal classes

“Emily’s classes exceeded our expectations, each week we came away with new information and knowledge and felt she was constantly sharing her professional experiences with us. The room and group size was ideal and we did a range of activities covering what we wanted to know about pregnancy, the birth and settling in with our baby with plenty of opportunities to ask questions. We had the chance to borrow books, do a first aid course and a breastfeeding video included as well as the four classes.”

What Past Participants Say

Antenatal classes

“Living on the Worcestershire/Gloucestershire border meant finding an antenatal class was quite difficult, but we completely struck gold when we found Emily and New Beginnings. We left each session feeling supported, educated and with a sense of calm, ahead of what previously felt pretty daunting. Emily has helped us get into a mindset where we feel prepared and excited about the birth of our little one. The classes were structured really helpfully, offering plenty of opportunities for questions and reassurances. Emily shared some great hypnobirthing based techniques alongside the basic and more specific elements of ante and post natal life. We cannot thank Emily enough, and definitely recommend to other new parents unsure as to whether antenatal classes are worth attending.”

Types of Pregnancy Services Available

Group Sessions vs. Personalised Guidance

Expectant parents can choose between group sessions and personalised 1-2-1 classes. Group sessions offer a social environment where families can connect and share experiences, building a sense of community. In contrast, 1-2-1 private antenatal sessions provide personalised support, addressing specific concerns in a private setting. This flexibility ensures that every family can find the best support to meet their needs.

Relaxation and Birth Readiness

Relaxation techniques are a key component of preparing for childbirth and managing stress. Sessions near Tewkesbury often include practices like breathing exercises, massage, and mindfulness to help parents stay calm and centred. These techniques not only aid in birth readiness but also empower families to approach parenthood with greater peace of mind.
