There are a couple of spaces on my next course if you’d like to join. Hypnobirthing really does build the foundations for a positive birth experience and your birth partner will learn how to fully support you in the run up and during the birth of your baby.
My course also includes ongoing phone support to help you get informed and make the choices that are right for you, so you approach the birth of your baby with calm and confidence❤️. Online course is £175. Contact me for booking details.

What a magical scene to come into last night...a twinkly Christmas tree, beautiful music, one truly powerful, amazing mama and as always the brilliant and supportive midwives @westmidhomebirthteam !
It’s been a wonderful week of 3 gorgeous baby girls in a row and I’m brimming with joy as I reflect back on each birth, each so different but so positive in their unique way. Now I fully embrace a little Christmas break off call which has as of now absolutely begun! 🎅🏻🥰🥂🍷. Happy Christmas! xxx

#ButNotMaternity
This smile shows my excitement as I raced to support a couple in hospital yesterday, during the birth of their beautiful little girl. I was so struck by how the support of a doula in hospital can make all the difference in someone’s birth experience... I know as doulas we know this, but I really felt it profoundly last night, having not been allowed into hospital with my mummies during this time. The things birth doulas do are so varied and so wide...but so absolutely attuned to a mothers needs. Women absolutely deserve the choice to have a second birth partner at the birth of their baby. Please support @birthblissacademy #ButNotMaternity campaign and help get these ‘one birth partner in hospital policy’ restrictions lifted.

So excited to be back running my classes in person

So excited to be back running my classes in person! Zoom has been brilliant, but the actual getting together is second to none!
Spaces are limited to 6 to allow for distancing, so do book promptly (booking link in bio). These are drop in classes from my home in St.Margarets. I am also running private courses if you have a group of friends that are keen to do it together (at dates and times to suit you). It’s a wonderful thing to book for the winter months. Do get in touch to discuss!
Classes start week commencing 14th Sept.
