Midwife-Led Antenatal Classes in Sevenoaks & Tunbridge Wells

Feel calm, confident and prepared — from early pregnancy to early parenthood.

Informed by current maternity guidance and decades of clinical experience, we provide small-group antenatal preparation and personalised midwife support across Sevenoaks, Tunbridge Wells and West Kent.

Choosing the right preparation or support during pregnancy can feel like a big decision.

If you’d like to speak with a midwife before booking, you’re always welcome to start with a conversation.

Expert Midwives Trusted by Families Across the UK

Baby On Board is led by Carly and Amy, practising midwives who have supported families across maternity services since 2000.

Together, we bring decades of clinical experience across both high-risk and physiological birth settings, alongside specialist expertise in antenatal education, infant feeding, newborn sleep and birth preparation.

Every class and consultation is shaped by real clinical experience — not scripted teaching.

Newly Pregnant?

Before your first maternity appointment, early pregnancy can feel like a long wait without clear guidance.

Our Early Pregnancy Guide bridges the gap between a positive pregnancy test and the start of your maternity care.

Written by expert midwives, it offers calm, evidence-based insight into your first trimester — helping you understand what’s happening, what to expect next, and how to approach the early weeks with confidence.

For many families, this is the first stop on their journey with Baby On Board.

Understand Your Path to Birth

Pregnancy often brings a flood of information — but not always a clear picture of how everything fits together.

Our Birth Confidence Map™ is a visual guide created by practising midwives to help you understand the key elements of labour and birth preparation.

It helps you see the bigger picture so you can approach birth feeling informed, capable and prepared.

Midwife-Led Preparation for Birth and Early Parenting

Our Baby On Board antenatal classes are structured, midwife-led programmes designed to prepare families for labour, birth and early parenting.

Delivered in intentionally small groups of no more than 6–8 couples, our preparation is grounded in physiology, current maternity guidance and real clinical experience.

Families leave feeling informed, capable and ready to engage with their maternity care with clarity and confidence.

We offer three carefully designed routes, depending on your pregnancy and needs:

The Antenatal Route™

Comprehensive birth and early parenting preparation for first-time parents

The C-Section Route™

Specialist preparation for planned caesarean birth

The Return Journey™ for second-time parents

Preparation for second-time parents navigating birth again

We finally felt confident after our course — it was completely different to larger group classes.

Midwife-Led Newborn Sleep Foundations

Understanding your baby’s sleep before they arrive can make the early weeks feel far less overwhelming.

This workshop explores how newborn sleep works biologically and how to respond with confidence from the very beginning.

You’ll leave with realistic expectations and practical strategies to support your baby in the early weeks.

Personalised Midwife Support — Before and After Your Baby Arrives

Alongside our antenatal classes, we offer personalised midwife support throughout pregnancy and the early weeks with your baby.

This includes birth planning, feeding support, newborn and infant sleep guidance, and postnatal reassurance and troubleshooting.

Many families value having more time, continuity and expert guidance between NHS appointments — particularly in the early days at home.

Support can be shaped around your needs, whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating early feeding, or adjusting to life with your baby.

The First Class Journey™

The First Class Journey™ is our most comprehensive offering — designed for families who want consistent, personalised support throughout pregnancy and the early weeks with their baby.

It combines structured antenatal education with ongoing antenatal and postnatal midwife care, so you are supported by midwives who understand your journey from the very beginning.

With more time, continuity and tailored guidance, families often feel more confident navigating both birth and early parenthood.

To ensure this level of care, we work with a limited number of families each year.
