Apply for a place on an antenatal course

Having a baby is an exciting time, full of new experiences and challenges. We run a free course of antenatal classes at our children's centres where you can learn about:

having a healthy baby
preparation for parenthood, birth and beyond
communicating with your bump and baby
changes in relationships
getting your baby off to the best possible start
how babies grow and develop

Each weekly session lasts two hours and the course runs for four weeks. You can take along your partner or a friend to support you. Apply for a place on the NHS website or contact your local children's centre.

The course - called Great Expectations - is run by our children's centres and the NHS.
