Stockport Birth Services

What a wonderful and informative experience these antenatal classes were! The wealth of information and knowledge to help me achieve the best possible birthing experience is invaluable.I learned about things I hadn't heard of and feel empowered to go through the remainder of my pregnancy journey and then the birth, knowing I am armed with all the information I require to make informed decisions. I feel so much more relaxed about the upcoming event.The classes were a lovely size and everyone is really friendly. I looked forward to going each week.Thank you Meg for a great 6 weeks, I have been recommending you to everyone!

An informative, relaxed and friendly course which provides invaluable preparation for birth. Meg is extremely knowledgeable and not only provides information and support during the classes but in between and afterwards within the group whatsapp chat.Meg ensures you leave each class armed with all the information you need and is completely non-judgemental about all of the options/decisions open to you. This was my second pregnancy and even though I had taken a hypnobirthing class in my first pregnancy, there was still so much that Meg taught me which I didn’t know and which made my pregnancy and birth experience so positive. After a traumatic first birth, the class helped me prepare for my second in a positive way and took away a lot of the fear surrounding it.The class is also a great way to meet other parents to be and to share advice and support.I would recommend this class to any expectant parents!

I found this course extremely helpful and would recommend this to any mother to be. I had absolutely no idea about what to expect for my first birth and now have some top knowledge, positivity and key important information from Meg on what to expect going forward. The classes were fun, and very open minded to whatever birth you have in mind. Meg was very approachable, fun and kind and the group of ladies were all lovely. It was a great experience chatting to others and hearing all the options available and I feel confident that I can take the knowledge with me and as a result now have positive and calm approach and plan towards my ideal birth.. Thank you very much Meg! :-)

Meg has such a wealth of wisdom- through her own personal experiences as a mother of 3 and through her work. I've attended 2 courses with Stockport Birth Services, they've filled me with confidence as a new mum and left me with life long mummy friends.

I’ve attended two courses run by Meg and can’t recommend them enough. I first completed the antenatal/hypnobirthing course and it was fantastic! It really prepared me for labour in terms of what to expect, breathing techniques and how my partner could best support me. Thanks to the knowledge and skills I’d learned through Megs course, I was able to have a very positive birthing experience!I’ve also completed the Early Stages; Baby and Me course which I’ve found invaluable for providing advice and support in those early days as a new mum. The class is so relaxed, you just feed and change your baby as needed. Plus, I’ve learnt just as much from the brew and chats as I have from the baby massage. It’s just been ace! In fact I liked it so much I’ve booked to attend again!

I took the Hypnobirthing Birth Preparation course, which was very informative and not only covering general birthing topics but also about feeding and Stepping Hill Hospital topics. As a mum to be for the first time as well as someone new in Stockport, it helped me so much be comfortable and confident to prepare for the birth!I found that the recap newsletter after each class was very helpful!

This course exceeded any expectations I had and truly transformed my experience of late pregnancy & birth. When I signed up, I expected the course to offer some insight around what to expect & provide some tools to enhance the experience.It did all of this, but also left me informed & empowered enough so I was able to ask the right questions to make positive decisions - even when Plan A went out of the window! Alf is now two weeks old and I look back at our experience as incredibly positive & the birth we were meant to have.The classes are thoroughly enjoyable and it’s a fantastic way to meet other parents-to-be. Meg went above & beyond with support & shared relevant research ahead of challenging conversations with healthcare providers. You really feel like she’s in your (and baby’s) corner.

I have just finished the hypnobirthing course run by Meg and cannot recommend it highly enough! The class was so informative whilst still feeling laid back and fun. Meg has so much knowledge, and I have come away feeling really prepared with so much more confidence for whatever outcome is on the cards for our little family as we get through labour and the first stages of parenthood. It’s been very empowering. As a bonus, it’s also a lovely opportunity to chat to other mums-to-be and make you feel less alone in the process. Thank you so much, Meg! :)
