    Preparing to welcome a baby into the world can be daunting with so many unknowns & what ifs.

    The Middee Society’s face to face + online group or private birth classes will leave you feeling empowered + confident about your labour & birth. Unlike many other child birth education classes our classes are taught by currently practicing midwives. It is our aim to provide you with the latest evidence based education which will enable you to advocate for yourself & your desired birthing experience.

    Say goodbye to those generic textbook birthing classes. Our classes are designed in a modern, fun, informative, lighthearted & interactive way.

    We know pregnancy & birth doesn't always fit the same mold. Here at The Middee Society it is our aim to best support you & what ever your desired birthing option may be. No women should be excluded from recieving high quality education based on their pregnancy being deemed as high risk.
