Welcome to our Childbirth Education Hub. Our aim is to help expecting mothers go through their pregnancy, birth and beyond with the knowledge and support that they deserve.
My Mission
The birth of your baby is a wondrous event filled with so much emotion.
If you practice mindfulness in your pregnancy, it will better equip you to deal with the challenges that present during your birth and also enable you to become more forgiving and accepting if things do not go to plan.
It is our aim at The Mindful Mama Co. to guide you through decisions that sit well with you and your own unique personality.
Through our series of educational videos and weekly online support groups, we can help you understand how to make the best choices for yourself and your family.
