Birthsteps has been created by two focused and committed practising midwives. Disappointed by the recent announcement from the government to reduce the provision of antenatal education offered by the National Health Service, Christine and Anna have decided to create an alternative, this has led to the setting up of Birthsteps Antenatal Courses. Their unique midwife-led courses are aimed at preparing expectant parents for the birth and care of their new baby as well as offering reassurance and essential information for a smooth transition from pregnancy to parenting.

Christine and Anna are both experienced midwives, educated to degree level, currently working in the hospital environment. As well as being mothers they have many years experience in all aspects of care, be it antenatal, labour and birth or the postnatal period. They are committed, dynamic and dedicated to the provision of birth and parenting courses that prepare prospective parents for the arrival of their first or subsequent children. On offer is a very high standard of antenatal education tailored to suit the needs of individual clients.

The basis of their courses is to help prepare clients for the imminent life changing experience which they are about to undertake. Their aim is to enable clients to take away with them information and strategies which will underpin their knowledge, allowing them to make evidence based informed choices about how and where they wish to have their baby.

Birthsteps run regular weekend courses in luxurious country retreats, set in areas of outstanding natural beauty, offering couples the opportunity to relax, unwind and getaway. Alternatively, there are weekly sessions available over a five week period or if you would prefer a one to one session, these are also available.
