  • Here for you as soon as you register onto our antenatal course

    As soon as you sign up to our antenatal course Suzy and I will be at your disposal if you have any questions, concerns or just need a kind ear and some reassurance.  This is very useful at a time when the NHS is often unable to deliver the care and support you need at such an important time of your lives. We are here for you.
