Born Ready - Practical Birth Prep Course

Service Description

This course is about building confidence, protecting your choices, and reminding you that you are the expert of your body and baby. Who this is for: 🟢 You want more than a checklist—you want context, clarity, and confidence. 🟢 You’re ready to make informed decisions that feel right for you (not just what’s “usually done”). 🟢 You want your partner to feel equipped and involved so you’re both on the same team. 🟢 You want tools you can use on the day: breath, comfort measures, mindset anchors, and advocacy skills. 🟢 You value a supportive space where your plans, preferences, and instincts are respected. We’ll cover: ✨ How birth actually works and how your body and baby are designed for it. ✨ Breathing, grounding & mindset tools. ✨ Making informed choices without pressure. ✨ Partner support that really helps. ✨ Plans, pivots & early postpartum. ✨ Optimal positioning and techniques to support you during pregnancy and birth. ✨ Feeding your baby with confidence – a dedicated session on breastfeeding with Bradford’s Infant Feeding Specialist, Rhea Halstead. This isn’t about being a “good patient.” It’s about feeling calm, strong, and powerful in your birth—whatever path it takes. You’ll leave with: 💜 A grounded understanding of how birth works and how to support it. 💜 A toolkit of easy to master techniques for comfort, breath, and mindset. 💜 Confidence to make decisions that align with your values—without second-guessing yourself. 💜 A partner who feels prepared, useful, and steady. 💜 A values-led, flexible birth plan that protects what matters most to you. 💜 A calm, connected approach to the early days with your baby. What's included: 🌟 4 sessions with time for Q&A. 🌟 Access to an exclusive Whatsapp group for extra support, useful link sharing, question asking and village building. 🌟 Extra resources to support the in-person sessions. 🌟 Useful Techniques you and your partner can practice at home. 🌟 Partner prompts so your supporter knows exactly how to help. Partners are welcome and actively involved—because birth is teamwork. Kirkgate Centre, Shipley 6 - 8.30pm Because birth isn’t something to “get through.” It’s something you deserve to feel powerful in.
