Class Description
Daisy Parent is a practical, fun antenatal course for couples held at our studio near Stowe, Buckingham.
For expectant parents, the course will help you and your partner confidently prepare for birth and life with baby.
Designed with up to date evidence based education, tools and support, we help you to prepare confidently for your upcoming birth and the early days of caring for your new baby.
Preparing for your baby’s birth and caring for their needs in the early days can be a confusing time. For instance, there are so many guides, check lists, shopping lists, experts and education that it can be hard to know where to start. As well as making sure you are on the same page as your partner!
Daisy Parent workshops draw on elements of active birth, hypnobirthing, parentcraft and traditional antenatal classes to create one very powerful combination. From birth plans to massage in labour, informed choice to packing hospital bags, feeding your baby to changing their nappy.
We’ve got you covered with all the essential education and support you’ll need.
You can complete the full course or just choose the elements that are right for you.
