Parenting Support Classes
Birthing Rites parenting support classes offer you the opportunity to discover
ways to more easily adjust to the major changes in your life since the birth
of your child. We provide you with a safe extended family type environment
within which you feel free to talk about issues which are important to you,
with unconditional support and encouragement.
The Birthing Rites Parenting support classes are very unique. Each term is designed individually to meet the needs of each group.
These parenting classes provide in depth discussion and resource in regards to the life time parenting of your children. With topics such as breast feeding with Nursing Mothers, settling techniques with Karitane, baby massage and looking at the changes that you will go through once the baby is born. We also consider your child's future and development, covering such topics as education, the developmental process, immunisation and general health and well being.
We welcome and encourage fathers to attend, so they too can be involved more fully in the post natal process. We have found over the years that lifetime networks and friendships are developed through our extended family environment. We also offer referrals to our in house counsellors, if needed and vast array of child practitioners.
These classes are already existing with people of all stages of their pregnancy and babies from newborn to 6 months.
These classes are available to any parents of young babies, regardless of whether they attend the Birthing Rites pre natal classes or not.
"A parents love is something that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion, of sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may,
For nothing can destroy it or take it away
It is special wondrous evidence of life's tender guiding hand."
The parenting classes are held every Friday morning between 11am and 1pm, at 10 Denison Street, Bondi Junction. The cost is $10.00 (GST incl.) on a casual basis. You will be totally looked after with substantial snacks and drinks being served.
We look forward to seeing you and your baby soon.
