Wellness isn’t about perfection — it’s about pausing long enough to listen.
To your body.
To your mind.
To what you truly need.

At The Midwives Circle, we believe self-care isn’t selfish, it’s essential.

A calmer you means a calmer body, a calmer pregnancy, a calmer birth.

Preparing for pregnancy is a beautiful act of love for your future self.

It’s a moment to pause and ask…
What will she need?
What will help her feel strong and balanced?
How can I start supporting her today?

Small, mindful choices now can create a calmer, healthier foundation for the journey ahead.

We’re so excited to introduce our Saturday Birth Coaching Clinic — designed to help you feel calm, confident, and completely prepared for birth.

This 1:1 midwife-led session gives you space to explore your birth preferences, understand your options, and build tools to support a positive birth experience — emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, this is your time to focus on you and your birth.
Because preparation isn’t about control — it’s about confidence.

Booking now open for Saturdays at The Midwives Circle and Wellness Centre.

Baby wearing when the weather is cold, this post can help guide yiy

Cold weather carrying tips!

Here are some of our top tips for carrying in the cold:

* Thin layers for both of you. Snow suits aren't recommended due to the risk of overheating, potential slumping down inside and the inability to tighten the sling/carrier properly (much like car seat straps).
Thin layers such as fleece all in ones are much safer and easier to use.

* Extremeties (parts that aren't covered by the sling/carrier - head, hands, legs) need to be kept warm too. Hats with under chin ties can be useful for older babies who like to throw them off. Some thin fleece suits have fold over parts for the hands but I also use mittens sewn onto string, again to stop them being chucked off! We sell Moomo Baby Leg Warmers so message us to purchase those!

* Babywearing coats are fab. You can also pick up carrying fleeces quite cheaply. Alternatively a larger sized coat will usually do up at least over little one's feet, or a cover that goes over your sling/carrier. We have babywearing coats and sling covers available to hire.

* Make sure your little one's airway is clear and not in any way obstructed by scarfs or your coat.

* Your sling counts as at least one layer. Your child will also be getting your body heat.

* Think about the footwear you are wearing if it's wet/icy/unstable ground.

* If you're unsure, pop us a message for some advice ❤️
