Award Winning Private Antenatal Courses in Newcastle, Northumberland & the North East.
You’re growing a baby — and maybe, without meaning to, growing a little fear too.
Because somewhere along the way, you've been conditioned to expect the worst when it comes to giving birth.
To cross your fingers and hope for the best. To hand over complete control and just take all of the drugs. To accept it’s something you simply need to 'get through’.
And those niggling doubts have started creeping in...
"Birth is unpredictable - so maybe birth prep is pointless anyway?"
"I'll just go with the flow - all that matters is a healthy baby"
And whilst those thoughts might feel protective, they're often covering something deeper...
Fear.
Fear of the unknown. Fear of losing control. Fear fuelled by every birth horror story you've ever been told.
This is where we change all of that.
Because giving birth isn't about being a passive bystander.
It's about stepping into one of the most powerful, transformative experiences of your life knowing you have all of the tools, knowledge, and confidence to navigate whatever path your birth takes.
If you're ready to ditch the fear, take back control and finally step into birth feeling truly empowered, my Award Winning Antenatal course is everything you need.
This Isn't Your Standard Antenatal Course
Let's be honest - you don't need yet another antenatal course teaching you about the stages of labour and listing every single form of pain relief that’s available.
Because on the day, that information is pointless.
My multi award-winning private antenatal courses combine evidence-based birth education, powerful hypnobirthing tools and intuition, so you can prepare both your mind and body for birth.
With my expert guidance, I'll help you to:
✓ Understand how your mind and body work together during labour
✓ Learn practical Hypnobirthing tools to stay calm, focused and grounded
✓ Understand your birth rights, options and how to navigate the NHS maternity system
✓ Prepare for every twist and turn without feeling overwhelmed
✓ Walk into birth feeling informed, capable and powerful
Held in the comfort of your own home, I will work with you and your birthing partner to create a fully personalised private antenatal course.
You'll leave feeling confident, connected and finally have the answers to all of your questions.
What's covered?
Together with your birthing partner, we'll cover a wide range of essential birth, hypnobirthing, postnatal and newborn topics.
This isn't about being hypnotised, listening to whale music or whispering affirmations to your vagina - it's about giving you all of the knowledge, tools and deep mindset shifts you need to navigate birth with full confidence.
Although my private antenatal courses are individually tailored to you, here's the key topics we cover:
-
The impact fear has on birth and practical tools to reduce this fear, supporting you to give birth more comfortably and more easily
-
What to expect during labour, including the signs that labour may be starting, the different stages of labour, when to call your midwife and active birthing positions
-
How to manage contractions using a wide variety of hypnobirthing, massage and breathing techniques, all designed to keep you calm and relaxed
-
Expert guidance on all of your birthing choices, pain relief options and how to write empowering birth plans for all situations
-
Supportive and practical tips for your birthing partner, giving them all of the tools they need to play an active role on the day
-
How to manage common medical interventions, understanding your births rights, navigating the NHS maternity system and making informed decisions
-
How to calmly deal with a change of plans - I’ll teach you how to have a positive experience regardless of how birth actually happens
-
How to plan for a healing fourth trimester, whilst supporting your emotional, physical and mental wellbeing
-
Newborn essentials, including looking after your baby, bathing, how to change a nappy, safe infant sleep and feeding
