Begin Well is a charity founded by a Health visitor and a Consultant Obstetrician. Between us we have worked in the NHS for almost 40 years and over time have seen the importance of preparing families for the arrival of a new baby.
We have developed an evidence based antenatal course which gives parents-to-be the best starting blocks for family life
Working alongside volunteers in the South West, Begin Well provides affordable high quality, evidence-based antenatal classes to pregnant women and their birth partners.
The course takes place over 5 weeks, and covers topics including Giving Birth and Meeting our Baby, Changes for me and us, our Health and Wellbeing and Caring for our Baby

The course takes place over 5 weeks, and covers topics including Giving Birth and Meeting our Baby, Changes for me and us, our Health and Wellbeing and Caring for our Baby. There is no charge for the course.
Our course is based on the NHS curriculum and is delivered by church volunteers across Bristol and Devon. We link parents-to-be with people and resources in their local community, so after having a baby you are supported through all the challenges and joy having a baby brings. Your course will be hosted by volunteers and attended by parents-to-be from your local area.
