Antenatal Classes
Three classes. Everything you and your partner need to feel ready.
Our antenatal class package is a structured three-class series — Pregnancy, Birth and Baby — led by the same experienced midwives who deliver our maternity care. Practical, evidence-based and honest, with plenty of room for your questions. Partners are not just welcome; we want them there.
Who it's for
- Expecting parents from around 24 weeks of pregnancy
- First-time parents who want to know what actually happens — and parents who'd like a refresher
- You do not need to be a NOH maternity patient to attend
The three classes
- Pregnancy — your changing body, warning signs worth acting on, staying well in the third trimester, and preparing for labour.
- Birth — the stages of labour, pain-relief options, when to come to hospital, what your birth team does, and what happens if plans change (including caesarean birth).
- Baby — feeding (with real breastfeeding support), sleeping, bathing, what's normal and what's not, and surviving the first weeks at home.
How it works
- Classes run at Busamed Modderfontein Private Hospital, east of Johannesburg — the same hospital where our mothers deliver, so you'll know the environment before the big day
- Best attended between weeks 24 and 34
- Book once; we confirm your dates for all three sessions
Fees
