Our Private Antenatal course reflects the same content and structure as the group-class version, however it gives parents-to-be the opportunity to tailor it and enables a more flexible package to be developed based upon your time availability. Having a private class also gives you the opportunity to ask as many questions as you may have.
Ideal for first-time parents who cannot make it to a regular group class, or couples who have specific needs.
It can also be combined with elements of Baby Basics.
Our classes are taught by Dr. Michelle Ng or Vicki Marks.
