Pregnancy is a time of great excitement, anticipation and joy. It can also be a time of concern with many issues for you to consider. It is important for you to have accurate, up to date information for you to make timely informed choices and decisions. Achieving the birth you want involves your active participation in the process.

Based near Leeds, West Yorkshire, Pregnancy & Beyond antenatal classes will provide you with comprehensive classes incorporating current information and research findings. All sessions are led by a registered, practising midwife, experienced in antenatal education. A variety of teaching methods are used, including small group discussions, practical sessions and informal seminars.

Pregnancy & Beyond offer a range of courses; two-day weekend workshops, small group evening antenatal classes over four weeks, one-to-one sessions in your home (within reasonable travelling distance). All clients will have telephone support following the course until after the birth of your baby.

Classes are designed to tailor to your individual needs - we will send you a questionnaire to complete.

Pregnancy & Beyond aim to build your knowledge and confidence to give you the opportunity to consider what you want for your birth. It will promote choice, inform you about different options open to you and enable you to have control of your pregnancy. The course is designed to prepare you for late pregnancy, labour, birth and early parenthood.

At the end of the course you will take away a personal birth and early parenthood plan.

Antenatal classes are great social events, giving you time to talk about your ideas and develop skills in a relaxed and informal setting. Classes also provide you with a valuable support group for you to use in the following months and years.
