YOU BELONG HERE in the Birth Prep Programme (taught from my home in Conon Bridge)
My job is not to stuff you full of info, I will help you TRANSFORM your mindset so that you feel as calm and confident as possible. What I teach is evidence based, meaning it’s proven (physiologically and scientifically) to support you to have a better birth, no matter what type of birth you choose (or need) to have on the day.
I’m here to help give you the exact tools you need to do to have a better birth - so that you can enjoy your pregnancy and feel as prepared as possible.
You will learn the breathing techniques you need to stay calm (instead of feeling panicky and out of breath)
I will teach you birthing positions (more comfortable, less effort, reduced risk of tearing)
Learn how your birth partner can support you (so they don’t bug the hell out of you by acting like a spare part)
Discover the questions you need to ask your care givers to ensure that you are having the right birth on the day
You will learn the tools you need to cope with labour pain
This is the ONLY time you will ever get to birth THIS baby. You deserve to be listened to and know your rights.
Everything I teach is backed by science and physiology, and loved by Mamas just like you.
When you feel calm and relaxed during each contraction (I will show you how), your body releases a chemical cocktail of hormones that naturally relieve pain and support more effective contractions. Fear creates more stress and pain in your body (you don’t want that).
Knowing that information is NOT enough, you need to KNOW HOW TO stay calm no matter what. I’ll show you how.
The birth preparation programme gives you the practical, no nonsense, fluff-free skills that YOU NEED to enjoy your pregnancy and have the BEST BIRTH POSSIBLE ON THE DAY
This four week deep dive is divided into four clear sections:
1) Physiology & Psychology (learn the connections between your body and mind and how you can use it to positively impact your birth)
2) Calm & Relaxed This session is packed with easy to master breathing techniques and relaxations that will immediately begin to build confidence and transform your mindset
3) Planning & Positivity (why a birth plan matters, what to put in it - why it helps you even if it all goes out the window).
4) Preparation & Practice (what to do between now and when your baby arrives). You will have a clear easy to follow guide as to your next steps and we’ll cement in the role of the birth partner.
If you are ready to feel calm, confident and relaxed, and know what to do to dramatically improve your birth experience YOU NEED TO BE ON THIS PROGRAMME!
This programme is PERFECT for you if you are:
⏩ 20 weeks or more into your pregnancy (you can start sooner if you really want to).
⏩ A proactive planner who likes to prepare and do what they can to create a calm and comfortable birth.
⏩ Want to know exactly what you and your partner can do to positively influence your birth.
⏩ Want to feel informed, empowered, in control & confident.

FAQ
Do I have to want a vaginal birth to benefit from this programme?
100% NO. This deep dive programme will support you whether you have a vaginal birth, a c-section, induction or anything in between. It will support your chances of having a vaginal birth (if that’s what you want) because feeling calm and relaxed is more likely to help your labour progress naturally.
Does my partner / birth partner have to attend? It’s best if they do attend, but if not you have a full workbook and access to the MP3s and a video library that they can learn from.
How long is the programme? It is run over four and is a total of 8-10 hours (you can also access a suite of online resources, relaxation recordings and you’re welcome to message me with questions).
I get a bit stressed when I need to learn stuff? Which is EXACTLY why you need this. EVERY class is relaxing and even if you fall asleep the info you WILL absorb the info. We have a mix of videos, audios, written material, interactive material and resources.
Why is this better than a pre-recorded programme I can do in my own time? We all have good intentions to read books, to watch videos but passive learning is not the same as the transformative experience that comes with YOU being HEARD and supported by me. YOU have a voice in all of this, and you deserve dedicated time and space to get clear on your needs and wants on the day that you give birth. These sessions are LIVE & INTERACTIVE
Is this only for first time mums? Nope, first time mums, mums of many, any woman who wants to feel supported and prepare well for birth.
What if I need to miss a session? Occasionally it happens. You can hop into another online session or if there’s space join the next in-person class.
Does my partner have to come? It’s better if he or she does, but if they’re reluctant then you can share the info. Once they see how much you are benefiting they will want to come and at the very least attending session four would be fantastic as that’s when we focus on the birth partner role.
Can I pay in instalments? It needs to be paid in full before the course begins. If that’s an issue please do get in touch.
What if I hate it or it’s just not for me? You will have knocked me out, this has NEVER happened in the past five years. I’d be gobsmacked if it happened now, but, all you need to do is let me know within 24 hours of your course and we’ll come up with a plan.
Anything else? This an in-depth birth preparation course created by The Wise Hippo and including a whole lot more. The NHS is fully supportive of this training.
