Antenatal Class
True birth preparation goes beyond the physical. This class helps you explore your expectations with any birth — natural or planned medical. Understanding what labour and birth actually look like often removes the fear of the unknown. We cover the stages of labour, physiological & medical birth, elective caesarean birth, and pain relief options (natural and medical).
Feeling informed about the roles of your LMC, midwife or obstetrician. Learn practical tools including acupressure techniques, optimal baby positioning, relaxation and breathing exercises to support an easier birth experience — whether natural or medical.
These classes cover everything you need to know. As part of joining HolisticBaby Antenatal Class you'll receive exclusive access to our HolisticBaby Community groups — in person & online — plus digital resource guides to help you throughout your journey, with tips and tricks to prepare you for labour, birth, baby and the parenting journey ahead.

Kendal
The most valuable thing Cathy taught us was to trust our instinct. As new parents we were overwhelmed with information, which was sometimes conflicting. It turns out we knew all along what was best for us.
Claire & Mark Sanders, Laingholm, Auckland
Holistic Baby antenatal classes — we found them so valuable. Cathy is a warm, knowledgeable and reassuring teacher who shares a wealth of practical information about birth, breastfeeding, and newborn care.
Lina
Cathy's vast knowledge and experience made the whole process feel clear, practical, and reassuring with any birth. We met a great group of people to have coffee groups with.
Tania
Highly recommend this class for anyone expecting. It was incredibly informative and helped my husband and me feel so much more prepared for what's ahead. Cathy was fantastic — she provided clear, practical advice and information not only for primary caregivers, but also for partners and support people.
Dinithi
We attended HolisticBaby antenatal classes before giving birth and took away incredible knowledge. As a first-time parent, I was worried about breastfeeding and the challenges that arise. I went back to Holistic Baby for a lactation consultation. Highly recommend Holistic Baby classes and consultations.
Ash
I felt like so much of the other antenatal class education we received focused on the birth. But this HolisticBaby class opened my eyes. I had no idea how I was going to support my wife in the days after we came home and what having a new baby in the house would be like. So helpful!
New Dad, Ben
After struggling with multiple bouts of mastitis, Cathy fixed our latch in one session. I went on to breastfeed for years — I'm eternally grateful.
