Birth Bites: Short Birth Education Videos
A fast and flexible way to feel ready, excited and in-charge of your birth.
Birth Bites is my library of bite-sized, on-demand and evidence-based videos.
Whether you’re a first-time mum or growing your family, preparing for birth comes with all the feels.
Of course, there are the positive feelings of excitement, eagerness, and courage. Buuut you also might feel anxious, confused, and little unsure. Like you’re not doing the ‘right things’ or like nobody is truly listening to you.
But what if you could take charge of your birth with on-demand, evidence-based birth education videos from an experienced midwife?
Say hello to Birth Bites
Birth Bites is a library of bite-sized, on-demand and educational birthing videos – exploring everything from breathing techniques to partner support to recovery and postpartum.
The Birth Bites videos are drawn from my big course – Your Birth Class – but now you can purchase them separately to make it fast, flexible and cost-effective for you, mama.
