A Pregnancy Class for Every Birth Journey
Whether you are planning:
• a hospital birth
• a home birth
• a water birth
• an epidural
• an induced labour
• or a planned caesarean birth
these classes will help you feel informed, calm and confident about whatever birth unfolds.
Birth doesn’t always follow a perfect plan. These classes help you understand how labour works and how to navigate your choices, so you feel prepared for any path your birth may take.
Book Early in Pregnancy
Many mums book our classes after their 12 week scan so they can join after their 20 week scan to enjoy the full experience throughout pregnancy.
Joining earlier means you can:
• build friendships with other local mums
• learn gradually rather than in one intense course
• enjoy weekly relaxation and time for yourself
• feel confident about birth long before labour begins
• attend more than one course if you want to
Most women attend between 20–40 weeks pregnant.
What Makes These Classes Different?
Unlike many antenatal courses that run over one weekend, these weekly sessions give you time to absorb information, practise techniques and build real friendships.
Over 6 relaxed weekly classes you will:
• Understand how your body works during labour
• Learn natural ways to cope with contractions
• Discover positions that can make labour easier
• Practise breathing and relaxation techniques
• Feel confident discussing choices with midwives
• Prepare for different birth scenarios
• Meet other local mums going through the same stage as you
Each class is around 90 minutes of learning, movement, relaxation and chat but the format is flexible, depending on circumstances.
These Classes Are For All Birth Plans
You are welcome whether you are planning:
• a hospital birth
• a home birth
• an epidural
• a water birth
• an induced birth
• or a planned caesarean
My classes focus on understanding your options and feeling confident whatever birth unfolds.
Every pregnancy and birth is unique, and the aim of these sessions is to help you feel informed, calm and supported
What We Cover During the 6 Week Course
Our classes combine the best parts of antenatal education, hypnobirthing and pregnancy yoga.
Topics include:
• Understanding your body during labour
• Birth hormones and how they help labour progress
• Natural pain relief techniques
• Breathing and relaxation for labour
• Active birth positions
• Making informed choices during pregnancy and birth
• Planning for different birth scenarios
• Hypnobirthing techniques for calm labour
Each week also includes gentle pregnancy relaxation to help you unwind.
A Community for Mums
One of the things mums love most about the classes is the friendships they make.
Because you meet the same group every week, you quickly build connections with other local mums who are at the same stage of pregnancy.
Each group has:
• a WhatsApp group
• access to a private Facebook community
• ongoing support after the course ends
Many groups continue meeting for coffee, my baby classes, baby walks and playdates once their babies arrive, some women have been known to have a cheeky weekends away or holidays abroad together!.
Hi, I'm Julie
I’ve supported hundreds of local women through pregnancy, birth and early motherhood through my antenatal classes, baby massage and baby yoga sessions over the past 14 years.
My aim is simple:
To help you feel calm, confident and supported throughout your pregnancy.
I create a relaxed and friendly space where no question is too small, and every mum feels welcome.

Q. Does my partner come to this class
No, this weekly class is for mums only but there is a perfect class if you would prefer to attend with your birth partner. Click HERE to find out more
Q. Can I do both the weekly Bumps class and the couples class?
A. Yes, A lot of mums enjoy their weekly time to themselves but like to bring their birth partners along to the couples workshop to help them work together as a team when labour starts and it helps them to understand how they can best help and support you and each other during that time.
Q. When is the best time to start Bumps Antenatal classes?
A. It depends on how you are feeling but I always recommend after 20 weeks and before 37 weeks. If you are anxious about birth, get booked in during your second trimester can help to ease those fears and help you to relax. You can attend classes all the way up to being in labour, but babies' arrivals can take us by surprise, so we recommend that you complete a term by the time you reach 37 weeks (just in case)! My first baby arrived at 34 weeks with no prior warning so you never know!
Q. What do I wear to classes?
A. No Matter which class you are coming to they are all mat based so we sit on mats on the floor. The only exception is the couples workshop which is chairs. So, it is advised to wear comfy clothes, most mums wear leggings or something stretchy.
Q. What do I need to bring to Bumps class?
A. Yourself, a bottle of water, a cushion and blanket for relaxation. If you have your own yoga mat please bring along but mats are provided for everyone.
Q. What if I miss class will it get rolled into the following week?
A. The terms are set blocks and no classes can be carried over as per our terms and conditions. I will do my best to fit you into another class in the same week where possible or catch you up on what you may have missed when you return.
