This package is for women who want continuity of care across pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

Package Inclusions:

During Pregnancy:

All birth support packages include a two-day birth education course with Belly, Birth & Bubs. Thorough birth preparation deserves more time and depth than we can reasonably fit into our prenatal sessions alone. The course gives you and your partner a thorough foundation in birth physiology, common interventions, informed consent and practical labour skills. Our sessions then allow us to apply that knowledge to you personally, work through your questions, and prepare for your model of care, preferences, and likely support needs.

Four prenatal sessions and attendance at one key maternity care appointment.

Across our time together, we may explore:

• Your beliefs, expectations and fears about birth.

• What helps you feel safe, supported and able to work with your body.

• How you tend to respond when you feel uncertain, vulnerable or less in control.

• Your lifestyle and habits that are building your physical and emotional capacity for birth.

• Practical ways to strengthen confidence and trust in your intuition throughout pregnancy.

• Birth mapping for the different pathways birth may take and the decisions that could arise.

• Your preferences, values and how you want to be treated during birth.

• Common interventions, informed consent, hospital policies and conversations with care providers.

• Preparing your partner to offer practical, emotional and physical support.

• Movement, positioning, breath, sound, massage, counterpressure, acupressure, birth fabric, visualisation and aromatherapy.

• Practical ways to support fetal positioning during pregnancy and birth.

• How to use a birth sling and TENS machine.

• Questions or decisions you would like support discussing with your maternity care provider.

One of our sessions is dedicated entirely to postpartum planning and preparation.

We may explore:

• Your expected birth pathway and how it may affect recovery.

• Nourishing meals, snacks and drinks for the early weeks.

• Setting up a meal train or practical support roster.

• Rest, sleep deprivation and protecting your recovery.

• Feeding intentions and access to support.

• The role of your partner and how responsibilities will be shared.

• Care for older children and pets.

• Visitors, boundaries and protecting your home environment.

• Reducing the physical and mental load after birth.

• Identifying the people you can rely on and connecting with professional services.

• Preparing for the emotional and identity changes that can come with becoming a mother.

I can also help you understand antenatal expressing and how to prepare to safely express and store colostrum before your baby is born.

Birth:

From 37 weeks, I am on call for your birth.

You will have access to my collection of birth tools and resources, including birth orbs, birth combs, a birth sling, Elle TENS machine, yoga mats, heat packs, aromatherapy, hypnobirthing tracks, affirmation cards, fairy lights and battery-powered candles.

When labour begins, I support you and your partner through the physical, emotional and practical realities of birth, including early labour support at home, deciding when to move to your birth location, setting up the birth environment, communication with staff and helping you stay connected to what you have prepared for.

I will make sure you are eating and drinking regularly, offering light snacks and my homemade labour aid to keep you hydrated.

Postpartum:

Three postpartum visits, each lasting two hours. These visits are intended for use within the first six weeks after birth.

Each visit begins with a warm postpartum drink and a mother-centred check-in, giving us space to talk about how you are feeling, how your recovery is unfolding and what kind of care would be most helpful that day.

This may include gentle bodywork such as a foot soak, shoulder rub, or warm compress, feeding and newborn care support, help understanding your baby’s cues, or light practical help around the home with dishes, laundry, tidying or resetting your space.

Every visit also includes a nourishing homemade meal and snack for your family. Meals are made with locally sourced, organic and wholefood ingredients wherever possible, and tailored to your family’s dietary needs and preferences.

Depending on what feels right for you, I can source apotheca tea or tonics from a trusted local supplier.

I can connect you with trusted local supports, including women’s health physiotherapy, osteopathy, lactation support, naturopathy, massage therapy, perinatal psychology, postpartum meal services, and other practitioners who may support your wellbeing and recovery.

While we work together, you can reach out with questions, reflections, decisions, or anything you want to talk through as it comes up.
