At an information evening of your midwifery practice most of the time they explain quite basicly what the delivery contains, which role the midwife has, how you can reach her en when you may/need to call her. The information being given by the hospital is mostly clinical orientated (pain relief, complications, etcetera). The One Day Antenatal Class goes beyond that: not only do we give you knowlegde about WHAT to expect, we also go into further depth of the HOW to’s; how to cope with contractions, how to cope with pain, what different pain relieving methods there are (physical, mental and medical), how to breathe during labor (including breathing techniques), what it will be like giving birth in a hospital, what complication can occur, which role your partner could take, etcetera etcetera.

No, that isn’t necessary. Of course you have to decide for yourself if you want to follow another class. Content wise, though, you are fully informed of everything you need to know when you have attended one of our classes.

During a Private Session we run through the whole labor and delivery process in aproximatly 2 hours. Short and powerful, you could say. We accentuate those things you want or need information about (for example; the start of the labor, breathing techniques, coping with contractions or pain, pain relief methods, practical issues, the health system in the Netherlands, etcetera). Naturally, you can ask us any question you want. If you previously have given birth, we will take those experience(s) into account as well.

 

The costs of a Private Session fully depend on the duration of your session, which on its turn is fully depending of your needs. Send us an email to discuss the possibilities.
