She can also assist with expression of breast milk or safely making up formula feeds as required.

Hypnobirthing classes offer parents the opportunity to learn about pregnancy, labour and birth in-depth and provide them with the facts and realities of childbirth. They aim to alleviate any pre-existing fears and encourage couples to view birth as a positive and empowering experience.

The main ethos of hypnobirthing is fundamentally learning how to relax using different methods such as breathing and massage techniques, by listening to relaxation scripts and by visualising positive images. The classes are about empowering women to trust their instincts and their bodies*.

*Course options starting from 1500 AED per couple. Group and private 1:1 courses available 

Baby massage is when a parent or primary carer lovingly strokes and soothes their baby using an organic vegetable oil. The massage techniques used during sessions are based on Indian and Swedish massage traditions and they also incorporate principles from yoga and reflexology. Classes will teach you how to safely massage your baby and enable you to communicate both verbally and non-verbally with your baby, so that they feel loved and valued.

The optimum time to take a class is when you are between 28-34 weeks pregnant. However, if you’re expecting twins, you should start your classes when you’re around 24 weeks pregnant because your babies are more likely to be born earlier than your Estimated Due Date (EDD).
