Mother’s Day can hold so many different emotions 🤎

Today, we celebrate the mums in every form - the new mums finding their feet, the grandmothers who continue to nurture, support and share their love and wisdom, the mums-to-be, the fur baby mums and the women who show motherly love in countless ways every single day.

And today, we’re also thinking of those who long to be mothers, those navigating infertility or loss, those grieving their own mums, and those finding today especially hard.

Whatever Mother’s Day looks like for you, we see you 🤎

BIRTH MUST-HAVES 🤎

A calm, familiar environment can make a huge difference in how supported and focused you feel in labour. It’s not about having everything perfect - it’s about creating a space that helps your body do what it’s designed to do.

Today is International Day of the Midwife 💜💜💜💜💜

I’ve had a moment to reflect on my career, and just how privileged I feel to have chosen this path.

Midwifery is not an easy job - the shift work, the unsociable hours, the constant unpredictability. Even something as simple as making plans with friends often needs to be organised weeks, sometimes months, in advance. It’s demanding in ways that are hard to explain.

But despite all of that, I feel incredibly lucky to have found a career with such deep purpose.

To be invited into one of the most vulnerable, powerful, and transformative times in a woman’s life is something I will never take for granted. To hold space in moments of uncertainty, to listen, to reassure, to witness strength, to take those first photos of a new life beginning - it is truly a privilege.

I’m so grateful for the journey this career has taken me on - from training and working in London, to working with some incredible colleagues along the way, expanding into different areas of midwifery, working alongside an OB as their practice midwife, and now being able to share my passion and knowledge through Birth & Beyond Education classes here in Australia.

Building a life, career, and business on the other side of the world is something I am deeply proud of.

And now, offering continuity of care through antenatal and postnatal appointments supported by Medicare feels like such an honour. Being able to truly walk alongside women and families throughout their journey is incredibly special 🥹

I am so lucky to do what I do and I wouldn’t change it for the world 🤍

To all my fellow midwives: Happy 🤍🤍

Preparing for a baby can feel like a lot 🤎

There’s so much information, so many opinions, and so many options - it’s no wonder many couples feel overwhelmed about what they actually need to know.

This is exactly why we do what we do.

At Birth & Beyond Education, we simplify the journey and walk alongside you every step of the way.

We focus on what really matters - helping you understand how birth unfolds, what your options are, how to make informed decisions that feel right for you, what feeding options look like, and what early parenting may involve.

Our classes are led by practising midwives, bringing real, current clinical experience into every conversation - not just theory, but honest, practical preparation for birth and beyond.

For those wanting more ongoing support, we also offer continuity of care with an endorsed midwife - with antenatal appointments throughout pregnancy and ongoing support for up to 8 weeks postpartum.

This model of care is supported by Medicare rebates and reflects the importance of midwifery-led continuity - something we know makes a real difference to how women experience pregnancy, birth, and early parenting.

You don’t have to navigate this alone.

If you’re looking to feel calm, informed, and supported every step of the way, we’d love to be part of your journey 🤍

Pregnancy, birth and beyond 🤎

It’s a journey - and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

At Birth & Beyond Education, we support you through every stage: from preparing for birth, to understanding your options. To stepping into those early days and your baby, feeling informed and confident.

Our classes and midwifery appointments are led by practising midwifes, grounded in real experience - not just theory or textbooks.

Honest conversation, evidence-based education and the kind of support we know actually makes a difference.

Because this isn’t just about birth, parenting and feeding. It’s about how you feel going into this.

✨Calm
✨Confident
✨In control - no matter how your experience unfolds

Your unique journey.

We spend so much time wondering what we need to do as new parents…but what does your baby actually need from you? 🤎

The early days aren’t about routines, schedules, or getting it “right.” They’re about connection.

Your warmth.
Your smell.
Your voice.
Your presence.

That’s what helps regulate your baby’s heart rate, breathing, temperature - and their sense of safety in this brand new world.

If it feels slow… you’re doing it right.
If it feels like all they want is you… that’s because they do.

You are their home 🤍

Save this for those moments when you need a reminder, and send it to someone who’s about to meet their baby soon.

Did you know your health fund may cover a large portion of your birth education? 🤍

Many private health funds offer generous rebates for antenatal classes - but not all providers are recognised. That’s why it’s so important to choose an educator who is covered by most major funds.

At Birth & Beyond Education, our classes are led by practising midwives, and with Lucy being an Endorsed Midwife, there may be even more opportunities for you to claim.

It means you’re not only investing in high-quality, evidence-based education with practising midwives - you’re also making the most of the benefits available to you.

If you’re unsure what you can claim, we always recommend checking directly with your health fund 🤍

Pregnancy massage isn’t just a luxury… it’s a beautiful way to support your body through all the changes it’s going through 🤍

As your body adapts to growing your baby, it’s so common to feel tension in your back, hips, shoulders and legs. Pregnancy massage can help to ease those aches, reduce swelling, improve circulation and most importantly - give you a moment to slow down and reconnect with yourself.

We often talk about preparing for birth and baby, but caring for you during pregnancy matters just as much.

Taking time to rest, release and be nurtured isn’t indulgent - it’s essential ✨

If you’ve never had a pregnancy massage before, make sure you’re seeing a qualified therapist who understands positioning, pressure points and how to safely support your body throughout each stage.

You deserve to feel supported every step of the way 🤍
