I UNDERSTAND
A parent to parent voluntary support charity

There are antenatal courses and there are Cuidiú antenatal courses!

Cuidiú antenatal courses follow a format that is unique in antenatal education in Ireland:

Small groups sizes allow time for questions and to get to know others.
Evidence-based information imparted in an empowering, interactive and practical way.
All birth options are discussed so that you can work out how you'd like to approach labour, rather than telling you the 'right' way.

Becoming a parent is one of life's most exciting journeys and Antenatal Ireland is there to accompany you from the very beginning.  Our Cuidiú antenatal teachers provide a range of courses in a variety of group and individual format
