About the course
Childbirth Educator was founded by Dawn Willoughby in 2018.
This unique course, offered in a supportive, interactive and friendly environment, is for anyone who is pregnant and their partner/birth partner, with the aim of helping them to have an optimal birth experience.
The full course of 3 classes costs £30/person (payable in advance by bank transfer or by cash at the first class). Each class is ideally between 6 - 10 people.
Classes are formulated to encourage the desire for knowledge, for evidence-based information and for reliable resources. The exchange of ideas, exploring options and voicing concerns is of huge benefit in the preparation for birth and beyond, as is the confidence to ask for information from care-givers and make informed choices.
It’s not just about the kind of birth you have - (be it home, water, hospital, emergency caesarean or any variation thereof), it’s that you feel prepared, loved, cared for and that you are listened to.
Dawn also offers “tailored to suit” classes on request, such as:
One-off breastfeeding information classes.
Couples classes to discuss help and support after the baby is born.
Small informal chats with dads-to-be and new dads, whether living with the baby or not. Birth is about dads as well and it is so important that they get information and support when needed.
