Pre-birth.

My tailored prenatal package includes four face-to-face visits in the lead up to your birth. Sitting in the comfort of your own home over a cuppa, we discuss your birth wishes, postpartum planning, any fears you may be holding on to and expectations that you may be carrying.

Visit 1:
The first visit involves us getting to know each other a little bit deeper. We chat through how you have felt in your pregnancy so far, your dreams for your birth, any expectations that you may have for childbirth and postpartum and I get a little bit more of an understanding of how I can help. During this visit, we just get to know each other on a deeper level and I sit back and let you lead the conversation.

Visit 2:
My second visit is where I go through childbirth education including physiological and medicalised birth, changes in hormones, types of pain management, techniques including breathing and visualisation, partner support, and the interventions that exist. I talk through where I fit in amongst all of this and your birth wishes.

Visit 3:
During my third visit we will discuss labour management, map out your birth plan, how to best prepare for your postpartum including how to gather your village and how your partner can best be involved and support you in early postpartum, breastfeeding planning should you plan to, and what boundaries you can set.

Visit 4:
During my last visit, we discuss any fears that you may be holding onto and work to release them, techniques to make you realise your inner strength and empower you during childbirth and go over and little details that may arise during our conversation.

I leave you with a little bag of products, access to my online resources and peer reviewed studies, and text support in the lead up to your birth.

If you aren't requiring such hands on prenatal education and planning, I do offer varied options of the services above. To find out more, click here.
