How the morning runs
In your small group of maximum 10 women, we start off at 9am with 30min of mat Pilates, with a focus on pelvis preparation for vaginal delivery, pelvic floor opening/ stretching and general mobility.
A light breakfast of fresh fruit, homemade granola and yoghurt is provided, as well as coffee and tea. Be sure to let us know of any dietary requirements.
We then create a women’s circle, where a presentation and discussion is held. We want this to be conversational, and encourage you to be curious and ask questions.
Finishing up around 11.30am, with plenty of time for group led discussion. A gentle reminder that these sessions are not for individualised advice, and whilst education is provided it is general and we cannot address everyone’s individual concerns in the group setting.
At the completion of the morning you should be feeling confident in your body, well informed and ready to complete your own birth preparation.
FAQ’s
Whilst our pregnancy workshops can be attended at any time, we generally recommend from mid second trimester onwards. There are really practical, useful exercises and advice for any time throughout your pregnancy journey, but the specific labour and birth specific is generally from third trimester, so it’s good to have that info beforehand.
When should I attend these sessions?
1
We run our workshops monthly, on a Saturday morning. We only have 10 women maximum per session we we recommend booking in early to avoid missing out.
2
How often are they run?
We love when partner’s are actively involved in birth preparation, however due to space we can only accommodate the pregnant woman. All the slides from the education session is provided at the completion of the workshop, and we encourage you to review this with your birth support people.
Children and babies are also unable to attend- sorry!
3
Can my partner attend?
How is this different to other birth courses?
4
We have a large focus on the pelvic floor and pelvis preparation prior to actually being in labour. We teach you perineal massage, pushing practice and how your pelvic floor is involved in labour and delivery.
We also cover early postpartum management and care. So the focus is not so much on techniques for labour and birth, but more so how to best prepare physically your pelvis and pelvic floor for delivery, and then best evidence based practice of what to do in those early week postpartum
How much does the workshop?
5
Your workshop is an investment of $110. This includes breakfast/ morning tea, coffee, tea, a wealth of information and a goodie bag with useful items for your birth preparation.
A $50 non-refundable deposit is required on booking, and full payment is required at least 2 days prior to the workshop date to secure your spot.
Private health rebates can be claimed for this group session, depending on your cover.
Your deposit is non-refundable, even with an early cancellation.
We understand sometimes things come up meaning you’re unable to attend last minute. We have endeavoured to keep the cost of the workshop as low as possible, meaning a late cancellation (within 48hrs) impacts us hugely as is very challenging to fill that place. For this reason, a late cancellation will not be refunded, and the full payment amount is still required.
