Our Classes


Antenatal Courses

Our first-time parent course has been running for over 32 years and we are honoured to have worked with over 3,000 expecting Wellington families since 1992.

These 7-week classes provide everything you need to know about birth, babies and becoming parents, while connecting you with other parents-to-be. They include a Birth Wise organised class reunion after the course finishes.

Presented in conjunction with Domino midwives and natural health practitioners, the weekly classes include:

  • holistic preparation for birth

  • keeping birth normal

  • birthing with support

  • life with a newborn

  • breastfeeding

  • becoming parents

  • sharing parenting experiences

For many, the most rewarding part of our course is making connections and forming support groups with other parents in your class. There will be a reunion offered to give you a chance to introduce your newest whānau member whilst sharing your experiences together with your classmates.

Included:

  • One course reunion

  • One-year membership fee (provides access to our library resources)

  • $295 per couple
    Places are limited to 13 couples.
