MINDFULNESS, MEDITATION AND RELAXATION

Learn beautiful techniques to stay mindful during pregnancy and relaxed during labour. You will be guided through a selection of meditations and learn quick and easy ways to relax the mind and body easily.

BIRTH PARTNER ROLE

Birth Plans are great for medical preferences but it’s also really important to have a plan for physical and emotional support preferences. As a team, create a tailored Birth Plan for your partner to follow.

BIRTH PLAN

Together we’ll break the mould of what a template birth plan looks like. Using a Birth Mapping format to work through different scenarios, you and your partner will understand the power of a birth plan and be able to advocate clearly for your wishes.

CASCADE OF INTERVENTIONS & EVIDENCE ON COMMON INTERVENTIONS

Using a flow chart, learn what the infamous Cascade of Interventions is, why it happens and how to avoid it. Also examine the evidence on common interventions so you feel more knowledgable if situations arise in your pregnancy or labour.

BREASTFEEDING

Learn the basics of breastfeeding – why it’s important, how it works, how often to feed, positions to try and how to increase your chances of successfully feeding to your goal.

PARENTHOOD

I’ll take you through the fundamentals of becoming parents, expectations vs reality, what that identity shift looks and feels like and how to support each other through the journey. I will also cover the essential points of Aware Parenting.

LAST MONTH OF PREGNANCY – PHYSICALLY, HORMONALLY AND MENTALLY

This is a beautiful session where we explore the last weeks of pregnancy, how to treat yourself during this time including letting go of all the plans and control. We’ll also do some Spinning Babies exercises to ready the body for labour. Lastly, we’ll put together a postpartum plan to ensure a smooth first six weeks with baby.
