Preparing You for Birth, Baby and Beyond
Antenatal Classes Designed for Modern Parents
For over 13 years, Bub Club has supported thousands of couples through pregnancy, birth and early parenthood with antenatal classes that are practical, evidence-based and gently empowering. Our courses prepare you for labour, birth, breastfeeding and newborn care, while creating a supportive space to connect with other expectant parents navigating the same exciting season of life.
Our signature antenatal course remains firmly centred around the in-person experience, giving you the opportunity to learn, practise and build confidence alongside our experienced team in a warm, welcoming environment.
To make your preparation even more comprehensive and convenient, we have thoughtfully enhanced our course with a combination of in-person sessions, live online learning and on-demand content. This allows us to spend valuable face-to-face time focusing on the practical skills, demonstrations and hands-on preparation that couples benefit most from experiencing in person, while covering additional theory and information in a flexible format that fits around busy schedules.
The result is a course that offers all the connection, interaction and confidence-building of a traditional antenatal class, together with the convenience of being able to access some of your learning from home.
Led by Bub Club's team of experienced perinatal professionals, our courses are designed to help you feel calm, informed and empowered as you prepare for birth, breastfeeding and life with your baby.
