Simply Birth by Anna

✨ New addition for Simply Birth ✨

I’m so pleased to be introducing a gentle and supportive new element to the comprehensive course - our Worry Circle 🧠 💛

This is a space where you can share any worries you may be carrying about pregnancy, labour, birth, or the parenting journey ahead.

You can share openly, or anonymously if you prefer whatever feels right for you.

Together, we’ll hold these thoughts without judgement… and then revisit them at the end of our last class. My hope is that by then, you’ll feel more supported, more informed, and more confident - with practical tools, resources, and a stronger sense of what’s available to you.

Because one of the most powerful things we discover?

You are not alone. So many others are feeling the same, or very similar, worries 💛

Simply sharing what’s on your mind can be the first step in acknowledging those feelings.

Being heard, supported, and surrounded by others on a similar journey can be incredibly empowering - helping to build confidence, self-belief, and trust in yourself.

This circle is about connection, reassurance, and reminding you that support is always there 💫

.. This Summer 🦁 ☀️ 👶🏼 ❤️ …

Are you preparing to become a Grandmother?

OR Auntie/Honorary Auntie?

Becoming a Grandparent/Aunt is such an exciting time, but you can also increasingly worry if the advice you are giving from your own lived experience could be outdated?

Sometimes the answer maybe yes, other times no.

Do you worry about ‘stepping on toes’ .. perhaps seeming to ‘interfere’ when you just want to give all the love and support you can 💗💗

The Grandma Class will help update you with current, evidence-based maternity practices and recommendations for the cares of the new baby - filling you with confidence in your role to support your lovely family through their transition into parenthood 👶🏼💗

💫 Share your own birth experiences.

💫 Reflect and discover on what has changed in maternity practice and the services offered over the years for labour, birth, early parenting including infant-feeding advice.

💫 Learn what NEW mummy, daddy (second mummy) and baby can expect in terms of care and support when in labour and after birth?

💫 Learn about how midwives are encouraging of a post birth BABY MOON 🌙 …
. how you can support, protect and honour this beautiful and highly beneficial ritual that’s practiced globally 🌍 💗

💫 Learn why kissing the baby 💋 is not recommended initially by anyone other than mummy and daddy (always a hotly debated discussion on our antenatal classes) .. but the primitive urge you have to do this is well understood.

Course length 2.5 hours inclusive of a 20 minute break with a complimentary warm drink and cake ☕️🍰

Course Cost £40 individually or £60 to reserve two spaces - feel free to invite your daughter, second grandma, auntie, friend or your daughter-in-law to join you!

📍 Venue 🍰☕️

Date Sunday 5th July 9-12

You await a very warm welcome 🤗

Easter Joy ✨ ..

Anybody bump painting this Easter? 👆🤩

This time of year feels FULL of symbolism for pregnancy - new life, renewal, and the quiet magic of things beginning again 🌱 🌸

For those that celebrate Easter it can remind us of hope, transformation, and joyful new starts, which mirrors so beautifully the journey of pregnancy and birth 👶🏼

From the unseen growth and gentle changes of pregnancy, to the incredible moment a baby arrives, it’s a season of waiting, wonder, and finally, joy ✨

It’s such a special reminder that life is always renewing itself in the most amazing ways 🌍

Wishing lots of love to all who are celebrating today 🌸🐣
