Group Caesarean Education Classes
A class specifically designed for couples having a planned caesarean birth
Our Midwife-led sessions provide an opportunity for you to gain insights and knowledge on all facets of a planned or scheduled caesarean section.
The content of our classes is evidence-based, modern and interactive.
These sessions are geared towards parents expecting their first baby, however anyone wanting to gain further knowledge,
or those who have not had a caesarean birth before will benefit greatly.
Birth partners are encouraged to be present for these classes. In saying that, if you would prefer to go solo, then that’s fine too.
We recommend you participate in the course anywhere between 28-36 weeks’ gestation.
