Holistic Antenatal Class

The One Day Class is usually held on a Saturday and is perfect for those wanted a condensed, but comprehensive Childbirth Education Session.

This class covers many topics including informed decision making, coping strategies, labour &  hormones, birth skills, strengthening your relationships, practical parenting, babywearing and breastfeeding. The session is run in an informative, supportive manner, and is an opportunity for you and your support crew to learn more about your pregnancy, birth and parenting journey.

The course is suitable for first time parents as well as those who have previously had children. Partners or support people are encouraged to attend along with the mum-to-be.

Classes run every second Saturday of the month, in Mangawhai. Please see calendar for dates:

I am happy to travel if there is a group of participants wanting a class in another location.

Sliding scale according to means $325-$565. To book please email Josie: josiegritten@gmail.com

"My partner and I took so much away from the one-day antenatal class/workshop we had with Josie, there was a lot of information but Josie delivered it in a way that was easy to digest, along with a lot of her own experiences and stories, practical activities and an open space for questions, discussion and deepening our understanding when we asked for it.

I love the way Josie teaches with a focus on physiological birth, and highlights what our body and our baby are made to do, on their own...I did a lot of my own reading, listening to podcasts, watching videos and online courses around birth and labour - and even then I found I took a lot away from our day with Josie."  Bridget
