Holistic Antenatal Classes & Spiritual Birth Preparation 

An inclusive, shamanic alternative to traditional antenatal classes for expectant individuals and families

Shamanic_Birthing_Support.jpeg
Birth is more than a medical event — it's a rite of passage. This offering is designed for those seeking emotional, spiritual, and relational preparation for birth. Whether you're planning a hospital birth, home birth, or caesarean, this approach helps you prepare with intention and integrity.

I support birthing people of all genders, partners, co-parents, chosen families, and solo parents — especially those seeking a queer-affirming, trauma-informed alternative to mainstream antenatal classes.

What I Support You With

  • Fertility ceremonies & conception preparation

  • Termination & miscarriage support (compassionate, shame-free, spiritually grounded)

  • Pregnancy & labour coaching

  • Co-parent & partner guidance

  • Postnatal spiritual integration & nervous system care

How the Journey Works

This is not a one-size-fits-all class. It is a living, collaborative process shaped around your needs, your stage of life, and your unique spiritual journey. You can begin at any point — during conception, early pregnancy, the third trimester, or even postpartum.

 

Some families walk the full path with me. Others arrive for key moments — a blessingway ceremony, a relationship check-in, or dreamwork before the birth. Whether you’re looking for full-spectrum guidance or sacred support in just one area, this offering meets you where you are.

Together, we might work with:

  • Ancestral connection and healing, calling in support from your lineage to bless and guide the birthing path

  • Rewilding practices that help you reclaim your primal birthing instincts and deepen trust in your body

  • Ceremonial preparation, such as co-creating a birth altar, hosting a blessingway, or weaving ritual into your birth plan

  • Energetic work, including chakra clearing for you and your baby, womb cleansing, or gentle extractions for emotional release

  • Dream journaling and symbolic interpretation, connecting with inner guidance and baby’s spirit through the dreamtime

  • Relational support, including conscious uncoupling, co-parenting navigation, or working through fear, resentment, or changing dynamics with your partner or support people

  • Communication coaching, so you can express your boundaries and needs clearly, reduce tension, and feel held in your relationships

  • Integration sessions after the birth, honouring the closing of this rite of passage and the emergence of the new you

 

This is sacred companionship through transformation — not just about preparing to give birth, but about preparing to cross a threshold into deeper embodiment, clarity, and power. Whether your journey is joyful, complex, grief-tinged, or ecstatic — you don’t have to walk it alone.
