Six weekly classes

This six week course comprising of weekly 2 hour sessions, will cover maintaining a healthy pregnancy, birth preparation, labour process, coping strategies, breathing techniques, choices and decision making, transition to parenthood, breast feeding and so much more!

Theses classes are designed to inform and empower you. A great opportunity to meet new life long friends. A postnatal meet up will be arranged about one month after the birth of your baby. This is a great opportunity to share your journey in a loving and safe space.

Two half day workshop

This workshop is offered over two 4 hour sessions. It is designed to enable those who can not commit to the six week classes. It covers exactly the same information as the the other courses.

Meeting other couples may be important for you when having a baby, networking can be a great source of support. There will be a postnatal meet up arranged about one month following the birth of your baby where we can share our highs and lows of birth and parenting in a safe and loving space.

One day workshop

This informative, focused, one day workshop is for those who have busy schedules and can not commit the time for the other courses. It covers the same information as the other workshops. There are plenty of opportunities to relax throughout the day and a healthy, wholesome lunch will be provided, prepared by our professional chef.

Interaction throughout the day with other attendees to support networking is facilitated. A postnatal meet up will be arranged approximately one month following your birth. This is an opportunity to talk about the up and coming months.

Private Consultations…….

We offer private one-to-one consultations to support your unique experience

No pregnancy, birth or parenting journey is the same, which is why we offer this unique consultation service. Consultations can be arranged on an individual basis, either as a one off or over several sessions. They can be over the telephone, via zoom or within your own home. Consultations are especially beneficial during your pregnancy if you have additional considerations, for example: a twin pregnancy or planning a VBAC. We can also offer support during the transition to parenthood with advice and encouragement to enable you to discover what is right for you and your family.

These courses and workshops explore the perception and involvement of other family members. This journey is a transition for the whole family.

During these courses and workshops we will explore the benefits of relaxation and meditation. There will be 10 minute mindfulness sessions throughout to support and guide you in this essential skill.

Towards the end of your pregnancy things may feel over whelming. We will end each session with a Unwind Meditation which you can practice regularly at home.

Having fun and enjoying pregnancy is essential to support healthy memories of this incredible journey. One way of doing this is through birth art; painting your belly, doing a pregnancy cast, expressing yourself through painting or clay work. These courses will offer you a unique opportunity to participate in creative art expression.

Optimising your fitness during your pregnancy in preparation for your birth is incredibly important. These classes have a guest prenatal & postnatal yoga teacher who will share great positions and poses with you. She also offers classes to support you on your journey.
