Mindful Birthing Antenatal Class- 1 day birth course
Mindful Birthing – Mind, Body and Partner
Join Jess or Steph for a fun filled antenatal class where mindfulness, motherhood, prenatal yoga and research meet.
Our Mindful Birthing Antenatal Classes offer a 1 day workshop designed in 3 sections to help ease your mind and prepare you and your partner mentally and physically for an AWESOME birth day.
We are located in the Brisbane West and Ipswich area.
The day offers a complete education for a mindful birth, taught by a midwife, birth educator and mum with a 1 hour prenatal yoga session at the end. Dad goes off to the pub for a beer and to learn how to support mum best during labour.
Do you feel calm and confident about your babies birth?
Do you feel prepared and able to make informed choices?
OR…
Do you feel scared? Worried? The words complications, distress and pain keep coming up over and over?
Create a positive birth experience for everyone involved. You, your partner and your baby. An experience where you have made every choice, every step of the way, an experience, where you are calm and in control.

Meet Steph, teaching Mindful Birthing at Jimboomba… (to the right)
Graduating in 2018 with a Bachelor of Midwifery, Steph quickly came to realise a passion for childbirth education. With antenatal classes scarce due to budget cuts and Covid-19, women were attending hospital with little knowledge surrounding the choices they had regarding their care, and often no advocation from their partners. This and her own birth drives a passion for giving women all options, a toolkit to eliminate fear and feel empowered in their birth, regardless of the direction it takes.
