Back To Basics Birthing Classes

These classes are designed to provide women and their partners with knowledge and skills relating to pregnancy, labour, birth and beyond to create a positive birthing experience.

During these classes I will provide you with:

• Active birthing – not a passive bystander.
• An understanding of the biomechanics of your pregnant body.
• Your hormones and how they help your birth.
• The stages of labour and what to expect.
• Five Senses of Birth – tools and techniques for relaxation and pain management.
• The role of your partner or birth support team.
• Using essential oils during pregnancy, labour, birth and postnatally.
• Breathing techniques.
• Visualisation techniques.
• Affirmations to remind you how strong you are.
• Identifying and releasing your fears of birth.
• Massage and acupressure techniques.
• Optimal Maternal Positioning – creating space so baby can move.
• Creating your Birth Plan – mapping out your wants and needs.
• Your rights – hospital policies are not the Law – consent is the Law.
• Delayed cord clamping – waiting for white.
• Birthing your placenta.
• What to expect during your immediate postpartum period.

This childbirth preparation class is fun, interactive and provided in a very comfortable and relaxed atmosphere.

It runs over 2 x Wednesday evenings from 6pm till 9pm and includes refreshments.

BONUS RESOURCES
You will also be given access to my comprehensive online Back to Basics Birthing course (retails at $295), which gives you really in-depth information (so much more than you will learn at your hospital ante-natal classes), studies and research, MP3 relaxation downloads to help prepare your mind and body, affirmations, videos, additional workbooks and so much more that I don’t have time to cover in the two sessions.
