New Life Classes deliver evidence-based antenatal classes taught by midwives in Bristol and Bath, which include baby first aid. We create small groups of expectant parents who want to build their knowledge and confidence for birth and parenting; As well as finding a new set of local friends to support them through the newborn days and beyond! (We love seeing pics of our groups still hanging out as they’re babies grow into toddlers and even start heading off to school.)
Due to coronavirus and the current social distancing measures in place, all of our antenatal classes are taking place on Zoom. But just because we have to social distance, doesn’t mean we aren’t still social! We’ve adapted the programme to make sure you have plenty of time to get to know the other parents in your group. Check out our FAQs page for more information.
We understand everyone’s experience of pregnancy, birth and parenting is different. So, our midwives simply give you the practical information to make informed choices, and support you in those choices – without judgement.
To help us develop a balanced antenatal class programme we spoke a wide number of doctors, midwives and private health specialists. We also spoke to hundreds of parents about what they wish they knew before having babies and included common themes into the course. We update our programme regularly to keep up-to-date with current research, as well as our customers feedback.
Since our first class in Bedminster in 2016, we’ve expanded and now teach classes in Bishopston, Bradley Stoke, Downend, Westbury-on-Trym and Bath too. We’ve supported more than 1,500 Mum’s and Dads and we’d love to support you too! If you have any questions about what we offer, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
