Antenatal sessions tailored to your needs
Growing a baby can be challenging and some parents need additional support during this time.
I am an NCT Antenatal Teacher with extensive experience of supporting parents during the antenatal period.
My style is relaxed, non judgemental and evidence based. Every family is unique and with information and support you will feel empowered to make the right decisions for you during pregnancy through to the birth of your baby and beyond.
These antenatal sessions can be tailored to meet your needs, and can cover detailed birth preparation including discreet sessions on water birth, physical skills exercises, using relaxation techniques in labour or breastfeeding and baby care (changing, washing, sleeping and night-time parenting).
I have extensive connections with other birth professionals and can recommend local practitioners specifically tailored to your individual needs if necessary (extra fees may apply for their services).
Sally was brilliant, really down to earth and made you feel comfortable to ask anything without sounding silly. We learnt a lot of information surrounding birth/postnatal to help us make informed decisions without feeling pressured to do things a certain way.

NCT Antenatal Course
To date, I have supported over 1,000 parents through NCT Antenatal Courses since starting with NCT in 2012. As well as being an NCT Antenatal Teacher, I am also a Doula, supporting families during birth and in the postnatal period.
During the 17 hour NCT Antenatal Course you will learn practical skills and knowledge in a small group setting with plenty of time to ask questions so you will feel confident and ready for life with your new baby .
It wasn’t sugar coated but an honest, but not frightening, discussion which has left me feeling empowered.
The NCT Antenatal Course covers a wide range of topics including what to expect during labour and birth, how to care for your baby, looking after your wellbeing and where you can go to find support.
There are five areas included in the course:
- Birth
- Baby care
- Feeding
- Wellbeing
- Relationships
Sally was knowledgeable, engaging and put everyone at ease. She had a huge range of resources to help us learn and covered so much. Everything was delivered in a way which was easy to understand but also often opened up lots of useful discussion. It was all very interactive to give us time to share and compare our thoughts and experiences as a group.
