ANTENATAL WORKSHOPS

You can start your antenatal education journey anytime during your pregnancy, but I recommend you start some time after your 20 week scan. The earlier you start the more time you have to practice the techniques and mentally prepare, but if you would prefer to wait until later in your pregnancy, then I would recommend completing by the time you are 35 weeks. If you have only just found out about Blown Away Birthing and are later in pregnancy, then don't worry, it's not too late and I always try my best to accommodate you and if necessary, fast-track you through my sessions.

 

Workshops can be attended by Mum/birthing person and Birthing Partner.​

'Wow - the first class was amazing and immediately I felt sheer relief and had a wave of confidence that I could do this (all from one session!) the rest of the sessions continued to be amazing and my confidence grew and grew'

Private Course - includes all 4 workshops in the comfort of your own home - £450:

This can be arranged on days and times that are convenient for you and held in the comfort of your own home.

​

If you have had a difficult previous experience, you might like to consider private sessions where we can debrief what happened before and tailor your sessions to what is most important to you. It is so important that you feel well supported and safe as you prepare for the birth of this baby. 

​

You may feel that a group environment is not right for you or that the group session times don't suit you well. If this is the case, private sessions can be scheduled on days and times that work for you and will be carried out in your own home environment. Please get in touch and we can arrange this.
