Can anyone recommend west auckland antenatal classes/groups?

Is there one that runs on weekends?

We move 5 weeks before my due date, and need to find one that will fits in with our availability.

we went to the West Auckland parents centre one, but they did book up very fast. There's another one run by Titirangi community house (which has a bit more of a holistic/natural slant to it, but that one does run on weekends).

If you google either of those names, they should come up with the links :)

I think Birthcare run AN classes on the weekends but not 100% on that.

The Midwives in Green Bay run their own but they are in the evenings over a period of 6 weeks. Absolutley hilarious though.

We went to West Auckland Parents Centre - but I think the weekend one they run has been and gone. Also the evening ones are 7 weeks, so probably not the best fit.

I think the bays parents centre still run weekend classes.. a bit out of the way but not too bad for 1 or 2 weekends...

You can either stay a part that coffee group or transfer to west auckland to a group with bubies the same age

I have heard West Auckland Parents Centre ones are good.   Have you booked into the one @ Waitak ? They run classes over weekends as well.
Call 09 486 8920 extn 3048

We did did ours there and never really got a coffee group only 3 of us still see each other.

Here is the website for Holistic Baby which runs the AN classes on Saturdays at Titirangi Community House. We went to these ones and I thought they were really good.

Not sure if The Midwives in Green Bay run their AN classes anymore

Green Bay is a bit of a hike for me from Hobsonville.
My MW has classes she runs on a Friday and she's located opposite Waitakere hospital.

Wonder if there is any on the shore that are closer?
Might have to look into them.

Don't want to miss out.
I've got the times for the air force coffee groups sorted I'd like to join in with them.

I went to the West Auckland Parents Centre classes and they were good and we have a great coffee group out of it too (10 of us still catch up).

They do weekend classes too and I heard there are some coming up (we were all just talking about it on the weekend!).

Thanks for that link Linzy might actually be able to find classes that fit in with our availability.
An alternative / holistic view might be quite good to gain a different perspective.
1st baby for us and always open to different ways of doing things.

Hi there
I do the antenatal bookings for West Auckland Parents Centre.
We have a weekend class running in August - not sure when you are due - that still has space in it.

If you want more information email me
antenatal@westaucklandparents.org.nz
and I can help you out :)
