As an alternative to group birthing classes Birth Central offers classes to individually suit your needs. We recognise that for personal reasons or time constraints, some people find it difficult to attend birth classes. We tailor make birth classes that work around you, your time and your needs. We can come to your home or you can visit us. It’s a great way to include siblings, refresh your memory and top up on information. Costs vary so please call us or email your enquiries or interest.
