Wexford Antenatal Class, Nov 23rd 2024
Saturday 23rd 10am - 5:30pm
This workshop is hosted by me Gemma Doyle. I am a Cuidiu Antenatal Ireland Educator and also work as a Birth and Postpartum Doula in the Leinster area. I am excited to be able to offer an in-person, interactive class to local parents in the area.
The class will help you and your birth partner to prepare for a positive birth, boost your confidence and support you in making informed decisions for birth and early parenting. In order to optimise your learning, groups are small which allows me to tailor the class to your individual needs. Everyone has time to get their individual questions answered and to practice skills needed for labour and early parenthood.
Some topics covered are:
- Informed decision making
- Hormones for Birth
- Role of the partner
- Whats happening in Labour
- Signs of labour
- Pain relief options
- Relaxation and breathing techniques
- Comfort measures
- Positions for labour and birth
- Breastfeeding and getting started
- Medical interventions and terms (eg. induction, caesarean)
- Early newborn and infant care
- Postpartum care and feeding basics
- And lots more!
All attendees will receive an annual membership to Cuidiu parent support charity worth €25 www.cuidiu.ie
Cancellation notice received 2 weeks prior to the class date will result in a full refund of your payment. Cancellations after this timeframe cannot be refunded. Transferring to a class on another date may be possible in some circumstances.

Additional Information
Hi! I’m Gemma and I am a Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula and an Antenatal teacher with Antenatal Ireland. Antenatal Ireland teachers are all Cuidiú trained and registered antenatal educators who work throughout Ireland. My next antenatal class will take place over one full day, Saturday November 23rd from 10am to 5:30pm.
My classes are small (maximum of 8 couples) which allows time and space for questions and discussions. The information I give you is evidence based and by the end of the course I will empower you to make informed decisions about your birth and your parenting journey. I can't wait to see you there!
