Cancellation Policy for Antenatal/Hypnobirthing Classes in the case of Viruses/ Infectious Diseases

IMPORTANT: Given that our clients are a vulnerable group (eg, pregnant women and children), Beloved Bumps reserves the right to go to virtual teaching and learning at any point. While Beloved Bumps will always adhere to Singapore law and recommendations during times of crisis, we believe it’s important to err on the side of caution for the protection of our clients.

  • If you have contracted COVID-19, an infectious disease/virus or have COVID-19-related symptoms (eg, fever, runny nose or cough), then please notify us immediately as unfortunately you will not be able to attend the group sessions in person.
    • VIRTUAL OPTION: If the above situation applies, then we will offer you a virtual class alternative. You will still remain on our mum’s WhatsApp group and can attend any remaining social events and classes once you’ve fully recovered and been cleared by your doctor. If you cannot attend any social events, then we will provide a percentage discount on our Postnatal Course for an equal amount that would have been used for you to attend the remaining social event(s).
  • If our instructors have contracted COVID-19, an infectious virus/disease or have COVID-19-related symptoms (eg, fever, runny nose or cough), then we will work hard to provide a virtual option or another time when you can attend the class. If the class has to be cancelled, then a full refund will be given
  • If you haven’t contracted the COVID-19 and don’t have COVID-19-related symptoms, and you are unwilling to attend virtually, then our usual cancellation policy applies (under ‘Cancellations and Refunds’).

Postnatal Home Visit
