BirthPlus is a Midwife led Antenatal education course designed to prepare you for parenthood.
Come and learn alongside other soon to be parents.
Every day your course leader is working with the midwives who will deliver your baby. We know the hospital maternity systems and the Birth Centres, and we have the special skills to prepare you for your birth journey on a personal level, because all BirthPlus antenatal teachers are experienced midwifery professionals.
The BirthPlus established brand of no-nonsense antenatal classes prove beneficial not only because they are taught by qualified midwives, but because they sort the facts from the myths and are down to earth about real life choices.

Hi I’m Jo!
Foremost I am a midwife, mother and grandmother.
My full-time work as a Community midwife also includes Birth centres, Homebirths and Delivery suite.
I am also qualified to undertake Newborn medical assessments as well as being a qualified Hypnobirthing instructor.
One of my greatest pleasures is seeing the friendships that grow and develop between expectant couples on our Birthplus courses.
I am qualified in Newborn life support and I am a fully insured antenatal educator.
BirthPlus Courses limit spaces so classes remain intimate and more personalised. So if you prefer not to be in a large venue with many others then BirthPlus is for you!
We always offer a course to suit your due date. This means you will be at the same stage of pregnancy as other couples and your babies will be due to arrive within the same time period.
We recommend you join a class between 30 and 32 weeks of pregnancy.
We had such an amazing experience with BirthPlus! Jo is a total font of knowledge and answered every single one of our questions (and as first-time parents, we had plenty!). She made my partner and I feel so much more at ease about the lead-up to the big day, the labour itself, and even those first few weeks with a newborn. We loved the small, intimate group—it felt like a safe space to ask anything. Jo walked us through all our birth options and explained all the different tools and prep involved so clearly. If you’re a first-time parent looking for a supportive, fun, and super-informative environment, I can’t recommend these classes enough!
We had such a wonderful experience with Jo at Birth Plus for our antenatal classes. From the very first session, she created such a warm and welcoming environment that instantly put us at ease. The small, intimate group setting made all the difference. It never felt overwhelming or intimidating instead, it felt personal, supportive, and safe.
There was plenty of space to ask questions, share thoughts, and really connect with both Jo and the other parents-to-be. Jo’s knowledge is truly vast, but what makes her exceptional is how clearly and calmly she explains everything. She has a gift for breaking down complex information and presenting it in a way that feels manageable and easy to understand.
We left each session feeling informed, reassured, and much more confident about what lies ahead. We’re so grateful for the experience and would wholeheartedly recommend Birth Plus to any expectant parents looking for supportive, empowering antenatal classes.
