Having a Baby

Maternity Grant

Family info Link can give you information about many of the issues that come up when you are expecting or thinking about having a baby.

  • Do you have questions about what will happen after your baby is born?
  • Do you know what your rights are at work?
  • Do you know what childcare is available?

    Contact us for a copy of our comprehensive Maternity Pack.

    Preparation for Birth and Parenting Classes are offered by the 8 community-based midwifery teams and any enquiries should be made through your own midwife or health team.

    Aquanatal sessions are held on Tuesdays at Avondale Swimming Pool and Wednesdays at Marple Pools.
