• During your Bub & Bloom Classes you will both be taught how to evoke a 'parasympathetic response' by tapping into the subconscious resources we all naturally possess. This is not only for the birth of your baby, but for all life situations.

• Classes also outline the physiology of your birthing body, emphasizing the role of the muscles, nervous system and hormones prior to, during and after the birth of your baby.

• Breathing techniques are also taught for their powerful effect on the body. You can utilize these skills very effectively during labour and birth, oxygenating the uterus, diminishing pain, inducing calm.

• You will be able to bring back focus so that all situations can be met with calm insight and understanding.

• In short, Bub & Bloom allows you to experience birth in an atmosphere of calm relaxation, free of the fear.

The Bub & Bloom Birthing Masterclass is a group workshop is led by Lainey. She is a versed and dynamic speaker and runs workshops for couples in an informative and engaging forum. Many of you will have been referred via your obstetrician or midwife and other happy prior attendants.

Often couples attend after a previous caesarean, wanting skills to prepare for a Vaginal Birth after Caesarean (VBAC). Maybe others have had less than optimal previous birth experiences. Others arrive to the workshop with preconceived ideas about birth after hearing many horror stories escalating their levels or fear and anxiety about birth. During and after the workshop, the groups develop a sense of ‘camaraderie’ that helps to dispel many concerns as you move towards a joyful and calm birth.
