“Heather’s knowledge as a midwife has enabled me to be able to advocate for myself during pregnancy. The birth classes left us both feeling informed, knowledgeable and empowered to make birth choices that were right for us and our baby, and I also went into labour the same day as having reflexology from Heather! I cannot recommend Heather enough!”

Pregnancy Wellness Programmes

Pregnancy is a special time as you prepare to welcome your baby into the world. But does that mean you should, or will, feel amazing all the time?

Sadly not. Pregnancy is not a guaranteed 9 months of feeling excited and radiant.

Fluctuating hormones, a changing body, nausea, exhaustion, back ache, insomnia, anxiety, worrying about pregnancy, baby being healthy, giving birth and being a parent. These are the parts that often don’t get talked about and can come as quite shock to newly pregnant mums. I often get asked by expectant mums ‘why didn’t anyone warn my I’d feel like this?’

We expect that to be glowing and radiant throughout pregnancy, but for many women that is not the case. Some women feel uncertain, unwell or unsure of how to navigate their journey.

Meeting your midwife is a pivotal moment in early pregnancy. When I first worked as a community midwife this was a 90-minute – 2-hour appointment in your home where we would have a cuppa together and get to know each other. You could express your worries, ask questions and start to form a bond with the midwife who would advocate and care for you over the next 9 months.

Now, this initial appointment has been reduced to a telephone call, where you asked an endless list of questions, by a midwife you may never even meet. Sadly, continuity of midwifery care is rare, and many women feel that they are not listened to or well-informed during pregnancy.

As a former midwife and mum of 2 who experienced difficult, unhappy pregnancies, I know how important it is feel nurtured and supported through pregnancy and this is why I have created our Pregnancy Wellness Programmes.

  • Do you want someone to support you throughout your pregnancy, to listen to you, to empower you to be your own advocate and to be in your corner to help you make informed decisions?

  • Do you want someone to give you nutritional therapy and exercise advice to stay healthy and well throughout your pregnancy?

  • Do you want someone who can offer you deeply nourishing reflexology treatments to relieve anxiety, enhance sleep and relaxation and relieve pregnancy discomforts such as back ache and morning sickness?

  • Do you want someone to give you evidence-based advice on your birth options or to discuss whether you should accept intervention, such as an induction of labour?

  • Do you want a safe space to talk honestly and openly about your doubts and fears? Somewhere you can unload without feeling judged or guilty? And with someone who can help you help you adopt a positive mindset.

  • Do you want someone who knows what you are going through, who will check in with you regularly, and who you can contact when you have a doubt or a question, or just when you need a chat?

If the answer is yes, you are in the right place!

I am passionate about empowering and supporting women through this transformative period of their lives, and to have the best pregnancy and birth possible. I will never tell you what to do, or judge or dictate, I believe everyone should receive evidence-based advice to make their own informed decisions and be supported with compassion and understanding.

With my extensive experience and expertise, I have created our Pregnancy Wellness Programmes to offer the highest level of bespoke support to pregnant women.

The programme is suitable for everyone, whether it’s your first or fifth pregnancy. Whether you feel full of fear or overjoyed. It is for you, if you are committed and ready to invest in your wellbeing and pregnancy experience with an expert by your side.

  • Registered Midwife

  • Nutritional Therapist
  • Women’s Wellness Coach
  • Pregnancy Yoga Instructor
  • Birth Workshop Teacher

“We found the birthing workshop to be incredibly helpful as we prepare for the arrival of our first baby.

Heather is very knowledgeable and as an experienced midwife, I felt I could really trust her advice and guidance. She also has a lovely and calming nature and answered every question I had with patience.

 You don’t know what you don’t know – but I came away from the workshop feeling empowered, knowledgeable and aware of the options I have. 

Thank you, Heather!”
