Antenatal Classes

Antenatal Classes are a wonderful way to meet other expecting Moms and Dads, as well as
preparing you for the birth and journey of your little bundle. Whether it is a caesarean section or
normal birth, my antenatal course covers all.
The course is a five week course, currently on Monday evenings from 17h15 to approximately
19h00.
These classes are face to face, held at the clinic at St. George’s Hospital.

About Helen Ward

Registered nurse and midwife

I have been in private practice for 39 years. I am a registered nurse and midwife. I am a blessed
mother of 3 children who are now adults and I am a grandmother to 5 grandchildren.
I am passionate about my work with Moms, Dads and babies and helping expectant parents through
the wonderful journey of childbirth and post natal and baby care.


I opened up my private practice to be more involved with expectant parents, babies and helping
Moms and Dads with post birth and the change in a family’s life post baby.
My clinic is situated at St. George’s Hospital. It is an independent, private Ante Natal, Post Natal and
Immunization Clinic.
