Thank you for making this part of our pregnancy journey less daunting. We procrastinated and dreaded doing the classes / courses and so glad we decided to go ahead with yours. We are 37 weeks and feeling a lot more informed and calm about what lies ahead. We liked that it was too the point, honest and gave a holistic view on birth. I loved that you addressed the partner/ support person and included them in :). Thanks again :)

Clear and concise, just what my partner needed! At 38 weeks pregnant, I thought I may be biting off more than we could chew but we easily smashed out Power Birth in one night. As a third time mum, I'm feeling very prepared and confident. Thank you Beth!
