‘Jess and I would recommend Anita’s NBB course to any first time parents.
Anita creates a friendly, engaging and supportive environment which balances top tips for your little one, advice about your choices for the “big day”, and encourages parents to make time for the relationship and bond which underpins the home to which you will bring your little one back.
In our experience Anita’s course will be of real practical value to all new parents.
NBB is also a great place to meet others in a similar stage of life, and Anita is really good at fostering a sense of community amongst the group and this is then built upon by attending the postnatal classes Anita offers.
Thank you so very much for you all your help and support.’

‘My husband Ben and I recently attended the NBB class to learn everything about birth and beyond, and we couldn’t recommend it more highly to any couple expecting a baby.

Anita, who runs the class, is absolutely brilliant. She explains every aspect of birth clearly and thoroughly—from the stages of labour and birth options, to techniques that can help you cope and the many ways your partner can support you throughout. Anita creates a relaxed and inclusive environment where no question feels too silly to ask, and adds a lovely pinch of fun that really brings the group together—especially making it engaging for the dads too.

One of the most valuable aspects of the course is that you’re grouped with others due around the same time. Anita helps to foster a genuine support network within the group, which is so helpful for those early days of parenthood and beyond.

If you’re expecting, this class is a must!’

‘We’re so grateful for Anita’s NBB course - we left feeling inspired, empowered, and far more knowledgeable. We also met a great group of people and had a real laugh while we were there. Thank you for making us feel so comfortable! We highly recommend this NBB course for all new parents-to-be.’

“I would highly recommend NBB - the antenatal classes were practical and reassuring, which gave us additional confidence prior to having our little boy. Anita created a safe, calm and friendly environment for the classes.
After our little boy arrived, the postnatal support (baby calm, mothers talking, walks etc) have been invaluable and hugely helped in the early days of our parenthood journey.
We’re so grateful for Anita’s knowledge, kindness and genuine care - it has made a positive difference to our family!”

“As first-time parents, we were so grateful to have found Anita’s NBB course. From the very first session, we felt completely seen, heard and supported. Anita’s approach aligned so naturally with the way we hoped to parent, and she created such a safe, warm environment for us to ask questions, learn, and feel truly prepared.
We had so many ideas and hopes for our birth and early parenthood journey, and Anita helped turn those into confidence and calm. Her knowledge and presence were phenomenal - we left every class feeling more grounded and more connected, not just as a couple, but as future parents.
Thanks to the course, I felt genuinely excited and empowered about giving birth - and I’m so proud and grateful to say I had the birth I’d dreamed of. That’s something I’ll never take for granted, and I know Anita’s support was a huge part of that.
A big part of my pregnancy was also attending Anita’s Pregnancy Yoga - a peaceful, grounding space to connect with myself and my baby. Since Faith arrived, I have continued with her Baby Calm sessions, Mummy & Me Yoga and Mother’s Talking groups, all of which have been incredibly nurturing.
One of the most special gifts from the course has been the friendships we’ve made. Our babies are now ten months old, and we’re still meeting regularly for coffee, walks and catch-ups. Having a supportive group of mums to share the highs, the questions, and everything in between has made this journey even more magical!
We can’t recommend this course enough to any expectant parents - it gave us so much more than just information. It gave us community, confidence, and the most beautiful start to our journey with our daughter.
Thank you, Anita.

“We were both quite apprehensive about coming to the NBB classes and what they would entail. However, from the very beginning to our final class we can honestly say how comfortable and welcomed we both felt. As first time parents we are excited but nervous about this new chapter and unsure on what to expect.

Anita has done amazingly in preparing us for parenthood: she has made us realise how your partner can be the most supportive person during labour but also after, understanding physiological birth but also the other ways to bring baby earth side and so much more! We feel far more confident as a couple going into this with a better idea on what our journey may look like, the good and the bad.

Doing these classes alongside other first time parents also made us realise we are not alone and we have built up a support system going forward.

Thank you to Anita and all the other couples we have gotten to know, we have loved it.”
