“Whenever and however, you intend to give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body and your spirit for the rest of your life”
Ina May Gaskin
Welcome, my name is Beth.
I am a Midwife working both in the hospital and community setting, supporting pregnant people and their families.
My passion is to empower positive births - and those early days as new parents. I provide holistic perinatal support, antenatal and postnatal education to families in and around Lee-on-Solent.
When it comes to birth, I strongly believe that knowledge is power and this process of becoming educated enables you consider your preferences and options, learn techniques to feel calm, relaxed and in control and just let go and trust your own body and instincts. The wide range of techniques I teach are very effective, enabling mind and body preparation through physiology and biomechanics of birth alongside breathing, movements, positive anchors and affirmations. These techniques are grounded in evidence and will support you and your birth partner to achieve your empowered, positive birth.
All classes offer nurturing non-judgemental support, relaxation, movement, powerful breath work, empowering education, community and a safe space for women, birth partners, babies, families to gather, connect, relax and learn together with the focus on wellbeing for all.
Each class is followed by a comprehensive email to ensure you have all the support needed to continue to practice techniques taught during the classes.
My classes provide plenty of opportunities to meet other local parents. A WhatsApp group for each class provides the opportunity for extra support and regular local meet ups and a monthly ‘Cuppa and Cake’ for you to attend as and when you can.
‘I will help you find ‘your village’.
Antenatal classes can be attended from 14 weeks of pregnancy,all run out of my beautiful studio in Lee-on-the-Solent.
