Caesarean-Specific Antenatal Course
MIDWIFE-LED CAESAREAN COURSE IN NORFOLK

That Little Norfolk Shop & Studio at The Abbey Schoolrooms, Church Street, Wymondham, NR18 0PH.
The Birth Preparation Company is the only provider of Caesarean-specific antenatal courses in Norfolk. Specifically designed for women and their partners who are having a planned Caesarean birth, my Caesarean antenatal courses allow the participants to enjoy all the benefits of attending antenatal classes which contain information specific to their circumstances.
As an experienced practising midwife I will be able to provide you with an overview of what will happen on the day of your Caesarean birth, as well as the rest of your hospital stay. You will receive tips for recovery and early days with your baby, including breastfeeding, bottle feeding, baby care, bathing, babywearing (slings), safe sleep, sleep expectations and much more.
The Caesarean course runs on demand, please contact me for details about the upcoming dates.

It is recommended to start the course when you are between 26 – 32 weeks pregnant, or at least 4 weeks before the date of your planned Caesarean birth (although we strongly recommend booking in advance to guarantee your place).
This course consists of one LIVE online session (Caesarean specific) followed by two face-to-face sessions, where you will join the participants of the regular antenatal course for the infant feeding and baby care parts of the course (3 sessions in total).
Each in-person session includes a break, during which you will be able to enjoy a cuppa and chat to the other course participants. This, together with being a part of a WhatsApp group, is a great opportunity to create a support network of new parents with babies due at similar times.
You will be encouraged to ask any questions throughout the course. I’m also always happy to answer questions in between the sessions as well as after the course via WhatsApp – enabling you to have a support of a local practising midwife at your fingertips!
My courses take place at ‘That Little Norfolk Shop & Studio‘ at The Abbey Schoolrooms, Church Street, Wymondham, NR18 0PH. The Studio is on the first floor and sadly does not have disabled access at present (there is plan for a platform lift to be installed in the near future).

Pricing...
3 WEEK COURSE | £170
This price includes yourself and your birthing partner*. You are welcome to bring a friend or a relative instead of your partner, or attend alone**. Gift vouchers are available, simply get in touch for details.
*Please contact me before booking if you are planning to attend alone and I will adjust the price accordingly.
** With the cost of living rising I am aware that not everyone can afford to pay for antenatal education. I therefore offer some spaces each month at a reduced price. If you would like to attend one of my courses but can’t afford to pay the full price, please don’t hesitate to contact me here.

What clients say...
"This course is the best money we’ve spent in preparation for the arrival of our baby – Andrea is amazing. She is so knowledgeable and every aspect of becoming a new parent is covered in detail. The sessions flew by and she even accommodated us virtually when Covid meant we unfortunately couldn’t attend the final two sessions in person. We cannot recommend this course and Andrea enough!"
