Welcome to Birth Connection!

Having a baby can be such an amazing and empowering experience. It is an incredibly life changing event. It brings with it personal transformation, changes to your body, to relationships and deeps shifts in attitudes. It can also bring all kinds of emotions to the surface – feelings of immense joy and excitement, but also confronting feelings of fear and worry about what lies ahead and your ability to face the challenges of birth and parenting.

Birth Connection honours pregnancy and birth as a rite of passage and as an opportunity for growth and inner reflection. I believe that ultimately birth is not a medical event, even when medical assistance is needed, as it sometimes is. As such I believe it is very important that we acknowledge that there is much more to birth than just the physical event. I completely trust in a woman’s ability to birth, and her ability to know best about what she needs to birth her baby.

Birth Connection creates a safe space to explore both the emotional and physical aspects of birthing as well as gaining knowledge of the process. A space where you are encouraged to look at all your options and take charge of your birth experience. Enjoy!
