Birth Preparation - Private Classes

It's childbirth ed... done differently!!

Our private class options are the ideal choice for those seeking a truly personalised approach to their childbirth preparation. Each session is tailored your own individual needs and schedule. The content is evidence-based, modern and interactive.

Geelong Born Birth Preparation sessions are geared towards parents expecting their first baby, however anyone wanting to gain further knowledge and tools will benefit greatly. Weekday, weekend and evening times are available.

As these sessions are usually “delivered” in your own home, the ideal location for this is a comfortable space such as your living room. An extension cord, provided by Geelong Born, will then be run from our laptop to your television (most televisions will have this HDMI outlet). The class slides and videos will then be displayed on a larger screen and you can then relax comfortably on your sofa!

We recommend your class/classes take place any time from 24-35 weeks gestation.

This program has been created by Rosie specifically for Geelong Born.
​
There is no charge for travel within a 30km radius of Geelong.

Prefer not to do it in your own home? No sweat! There is the option of arranging a time to do this in-house at Bump and Bub Health Hub in Geelong.
*Additional fee for venue hire applies.

The Program

​UNIT ONE
The Birthing Process

UNIT TWO
Coping With The Intensity

UNIT THREE
Possible Interventions in Childbirth

UNIT FOUR
The Adventure Begins: Your Baby, Breastfeeding and Parenting

Can partners be involved in these classes?? Absolutely! These days partners play more of a role in the labouring process, so it makes sense that they attend our classes too.

Birth partners are encouraged to be present for this. In saying that, if mums want to go solo then that’s fine too.

Topics that are covered in the Geelong Born program:

  • Choices for your pregnancy and birthing journey
  • Understanding normal physiological birth and our amazing birth hormones
  • Relaxation techniques in birthing
  • Body knowledge and awareness
  • Development of a birth plan/preferences
  • Non-drug alternatives for effective pain relief in labour
  • Pharmacological pain relief in the hospital setting
  • What your birth partner can do to help
  • The use of massage and touch in labour
  • Active positioning in labour
  • Creating your positive birthing space and birthing in water
  • Preparation for vaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC) if applicable
  • Discussion surrounding common hospital interventions and procedures
  • Your baby, breastfeeding and the early days of parenting
