BIRTH PREP
FOR COUPLES
Prepare for birth together - with confidence, clarity, and genuine connection. A four-week evening series for couples who want to feel truly ready.
MORE THAN ANTENATAL EDUCATION
Most standard antenatal classes cover the stages of labour, what to expect at the hospital, and your options for pain relief. That information matters, but there's a difference between learning about birth and truly preparing for it.
What actually prepares you — both of you — is learning to move with the physiology of labour instead of bracing against it. How to use breath, positioning, and presence. How to stay connected to each other, and communicate with your care team, when everything is moving fast and the stakes feel high.
Over 8 years, I've supported couples as a birth doula. I've sat on the floor with over 170 women in labour, and witnessed the pivotal role partners play.
This isn't theory or hospital policy. It's lived experience, distilled into embodied preparation for you both — practical, hands-on knowledge, given to the two of you, so you can walk into birth as a grounded, confident team.
2nd or 3rd Trimester
Four Evening Group Sessions
Thursdays 5:30 – 7:00pm
A four-week evening series blending practical birth education with embodied tools for labour. Drawing on Sarah's experience supporting more than 170 births across all settings, this course supports you to set your intentions, shape expectations, understand how to optimise the physiology of birth, and approach the experience as a grounded and informed team.
Across four weeks, we will explore:
Birth environment - setting the scene, your maternal rights, and how to communicate your values clearly with your care team.
Optimising physiology - the hormones, stages and phases of birth, and how to optimise the process and transform your experience.
Partner support - functional movement, optimal positioning, partner support techniques, natural comfort measures practised hands-on.
Meeting your baby - transition, the final stages of labour, the golden window, and what to expect in the tender early hours that follow.
Investment: $290 for the full series
You will leave feeling informed, deeply connected as a couple, and genuinely ready to trust yourselves through birth - whatever unfolds.
EMBODIED BIRTH PREPARATION
TO THE PARTNER:
YoUR PRESENCE IS POWERFUL
Many partners arrive at birth feeling uncertain. They want to help — deeply — but aren't sure what that looks like when labour is intense and lasting.
The partners who feel most useful, most present, most connected to the experience are the ones who came prepared. Who understood what was happening, and the meaning behind it. Who'd practised specific techniques beforehand. Who knew how to read the room, how to advocate, and how to hold steady when it mattered most.
This series is as much for you as it is for her. You'll leave knowing exactly how to show up — not as a bystander, but as steady, capable support.
For the PARENTS you are becoming.
Everything is about to change — for both of you.
Not just the practicalities of a new baby and a new rhythm of life, but something deeper. The way you see yourselves. The way you see each other. The extraordinary realisation, somewhere in the middle of it all, that you did this — together.
How you prepare will shape how you arrive — the clarity you carry in, the trust you've built in each other, and in what you can handle together.
That is what these four weeks are really about. Not a checklist to complete before baby arrives. But a genuine, unhurried preparation for one of the most significant life experiences you will ever share.
I would be honoured to be part of how you get there — together.
