BIRTH CIRCLE
A one-day birth & early parenting workshop, that delivers more than a boring hospital class.
Led by an experienced midwife and mother – blending evidence-based education with real-world, practical tools.
BIRTH CIRCLE
A one day workshop, that changes how you you experience birth.
Perfect for first-time parents (or those wanting a better experience this time)
Learn how birth actually works — not just what you’re told
Support your partner to feel confident and involved
Walk away knowing your options — and how to advocate for them
It’s your first pregnancy — and suddenly everyone has an opinion.
Google is overwhelming.
Hospital appointments feel rushed.
And your partner doesn’t know how to support you… yet!
You want a positive, calm birth
but right now, it feels uncertain and out of your control.
At Birth Circle, we combine evidence-based midwifery knowledge with practical, real-life tools — so you don’t just understand birth… you feel ready for it.
Get in touch if groups aren’t your thing, the dates don’t match, or you want a refresher!

Birth Circle Facilitator
I’m Abby — midwife, mother of two, and now leading Birth Circle, a space originally created by my mum.
Raised alongside her work as a homebirth midwife, I grew up witnessing birth as something instinctive, powerful, and deeply human — not something to be feared.
With over 10 years’ experience across hospital and community care, I now support families through pregnancy and early parenting with education that goes far beyond the basics.
Because feeling prepared for birth isn’t about knowing everything —
it’s about feeling calm, confident, and supported.
