Are you ready for birth?

Entering that space full of knowledge, confidence and feeling connected to your partner and baby is going to better prepare you for a positive birth no matter how your journey unfolds.

Understanding birth isnt enough.

Calmbirth gives you the the tools to shift your mindset if fear and anxiety are controlling your decisions and replace that with trust through breathwork, guided relaxation, visualisation.
These aren't 'woo woo' ideas.
They are based on neuroscience and years of evidence that Calmbirth have used to shape their program that over 50, 000 couples have now used to prepare for birth.

Calmbirth was designed to help you understand the mind-body connection and maximise your body's physiological process for birth.

Calmbirth also has such a strong focus on the importance of your birth partner's role, showing them how to guide and support you through birth.

With knowledge comes confidence.

I hope to see you for my next course and I look forward to helping you and your partner to feel prepared for birth emotionally, physically and mentally.✨️

Trust, vulnerability, and letting go.

Prior to attending Calmbirth late in my first pregnancy, I was an anxious "geriatric" (dont get me started on this language! 🤬) first-time mother expecting an IVF baby.
I was subconsciously influenced by societal fears that have eroded confidence in natural birth and physiological processes in moderm times.

Despite my professional background as a midwife, having witnessed numerous positive, intervention-free births, my perspective was influenced by this fear-mongering and the medicalised view of birth.

These thoughts and beliefs were subconsciously affecting my mind-body connection.

Following Calmbirth my outlook was transformed.

Beyond equipping my husband with the knowledge and tools to support me throughout labor and birth, I gained a profound understanding of the significant impact of the mind-body connection on birth.
I discovered how our amazing mind-body connection truly impacts birth and learnt the tools to tap into my incredible inner resources I had no trust or knowledge in before.

Calmbirth was the pivotal connection and mindset adjustment required to transition from apprehension to confidence.

If you or your partner want to feel prepared for birth with confidence and excitement is the quality, independent childbirth education program you've been looking for 💫

World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) 2025.
Where did it go!?! Lol 😆
Not some well thought out post here - just some honest thoughts to share after I managed to make a little reel...
And I'm never one to play by the rules anyway, so here it is well and truly after WBW has come to a close 🫣

I started WBW celebrating another lap around the sun and reflecting on my breastfeeding journeys that have been filled with so much grief and SO much joy.

Thinking about WBW as it ended Thursday, we were faced with an emergency visit, head injury and sutures for a little person which threw the timeline out🤦🏽‍♀️
And geez did I wish I could have offered a BF to help my not-so-little person in pain!

The privilege I have...
To have succeeded with IVF.
To have had such euphoria birthing my beautiful children safely, confidently, with choice and love surrounding me.
To have had the right to autonomy and medical care to choose a TFMR which was the most devastating but right decision for our family.
To have taken time from paid work to breastfeed and care for my children as I choose...
The list could go on...

And whilst my journey has been far from smooth I am acutely aware of my privilege and blessings and the fact that women and children everywhere do not get these basic rights. It breaks my heart.

Professionally I see it every week... women not meeting their breastfeeding goals due to a lack of adequate and or timely support from care providers and societal beliefs and pressures.

We have such a long way to go for the cultural change that is needed so that breastfeeding is valued and women's contributions are more highly regarded.

To those of you who are in the thick of breastfeeding lows or to those who did not reach their breastfeeding goals, I hope you can celebrate the glimmers and your wins on your journey because the way you feed your baby does not define you...
I see you.
I send you love.
Be kind to yourself❤️
