Childbirth Preparation in Four hours

This Childbirth preparation course is face-to-face in English for expectant mothers (around 30-36 weeks pregnant) and their partners to prepare for the birth of their baby.

In our Four–hour course there is a lot of information to convey, but still enough time for Q&A at the end. It enables you to go home better prepared for your big day.

This course is mainly geared to first-time parents and especially relevant if you want your partner to understand the basics in only a few hours and learn how you can best be helped (or as a refresher course if this is your second baby). This course includes breathing and massage exercises.
