Antenatal Class - babies due November 2024 - Jan 2025

Welcome to the Imperfect Parents' Antenatal Class! A space where you can connect with other parents-to-be in an inclusive, evidence-based course that puts your wellbeing as parents at the forefront. LGBTQIA+ friendly, for all whānau structures. 

• Weekly Tuesday evenings 6.30-8.30pm.
• 17th September -  22nd October. 6 Sessions in total.
• Cost: $280 per couple Koha spaces available.
• Facilitated by Sophie Moskowitz (qualified childbirth and parent educator) and Tjala Judd (qualified midwife).

Enrolment in the course also includes:

• 12 hours of fun, interactive content​ that encourages you to get to know everyone else in the group.
• An evening snack and hot drinks
• A list of our recommended local services and businesses for parents - including discount codes!
• A goodie bag of things to try.
• First access to our postnatal Imperfect Parents' support groups - weekday morning groups for stay-at-home parents, and an evening group for "the other half".
• Community! A private chat group with your class, plus access to our wider Facebook community where you can troubleshoot with other parents, buy/sell/borrow goods, and connect with other like-minded Auckland parents.

Our sessions will cover all things pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with an emphasis on covering all the options that are available to you so that you can make informed decisions that feel right for YOUR whānau and your situation.

Previous attendees at Imperfect Parents' groups have said:

"I have gained so much! Camaraderie, support, confidence, a safe space to vent. Have really loved having a safe and welcoming space to meet other parents and babies."

"I have gained so much from your beautiful group. In the first instance: a village. The sharing of knowledge, or rising to the occasion for each other when moments hit hard, to the wisdom that comes out of sharing. It has deeply enriched my life and I would go as far as to say it has directly contributed to me feeling as though I have had the best year of my life. What a gift."
