Corporate GentleBirth Workshops

Due to the current challenges in the pandemic, pregnant staff and employees may need increased support in the area of Birth preparation, labour, and delivery.

Currently, many antenatal classes are being canceled or delayed which may lead mums and their partners to feel less confident, poorly prepared, and anxious. This may lead to increased absences’, reduced wellbeing for pregnant staff, and may lead to poor mental health or stress, along with reduced productivity and the potential challenges of replacing a valued team member.

This is a fun interaction for your team or employees. An Evidence-Based care event, giving you all the right information to make informed decisions for your pregnancy and birth.
