The Daisy Foundation Alsager, Congleton and surrounding areas Preparing you for your confident journey into parenthood from pregnancy, birth and beyond The home of antenatal, pregnancy and baby classes in your area. Ellie x

Welcome to The Daisy Foundation for Alsager, Congleton and the surrounding areas. Firstly, congratulations on your journey into pregnancy, parenthood and beyond! My name is Ellie, I am your local Perinatal Educator and a mum to two children. As a mum I fully understand how daunting the prospect of a new baby can be, either as a first time parent or making a new addition into your family unit. Also

having attended Daisy Foundation classes myself as a new mum, I understand how important it is to have a support network around you during this time. The information I can offer can instil confidence for you throughout your journey and help you create your very own 'village'. In our classes I provide a safe space for you to explore your choices and make empowered decisions supported with evidence based research and non-judgemental support. I help you do this whether you are finding tools for breathing and relaxation in birthing classes or bonding and communicating with your little ones in Baby classes. Being part of a supportive community is important and our classes provide plenty of opportunities to meet other parents in your local community to chat and share your experiences. I help support this with a dedicated WhatsApp group for each class and regular email updates following up on our class discussions. We offer antenatal classes from 14 weeks of pregnancy and a selection of baby classes, from newborn and beyond. Information

All birthing and baby classes are currently held in person within the most up to date covid related guidelines with ongoing reviews to ensure we remain a safe space . Please scroll down to 'My Classes' to see current class availability. For further information you can contact me on ellie-schurer-lewis@thedaisyfoundation.com. I look forward to meeting you very soon!

Just a little thank you 💐

For the wonderful shows of support I have received in these past weeks. From the messages checking in, the invites for coffee when I’m up to it, the cards and the most thoughtful gifts.

I started Daisy to build a community and what I didn’t realise was the amazing women I’d also be building around myself. The friendships made over the last 18 months has been one of the most powerful things I’ve got to witness and now feel a part of, so thank you.

All the support and love, it’s appreciated more than you’ll ever know! And I can’t wait to see how you’re all getting on hopefully soon!

Hello to all my lovely clients, past and present.

I have been quiet on here for a little while now whilst I have taken some time to digest some news. I will put a trigger warning here for illness.

After several months of fighting for a diagnosis, getting second opinions and transferring to a now fantastic team, I have been diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Cancer.

I had my first chemotherapy treatment yesterday and what feels like relief has enabled me to explain why I will not be running classes for a little while. I have a lot of treatment ahead of me and the way is not fully clear due to the time it has taken to get diagnosed.

Hopefully I will be back in this space soon but I am taking an extended break to focus on my health and family.

I am 28 and was told so many different reasons for the changes in my breasts despite going back 4 times with new changes. It took a 5th time at a new clinic to finally be heard. So ladies, if you think something isn’t right, don’t take No for an answer. Just as we say at birthing, YOU know your body and you can trust the signs it is telling you.

Check your breasts regularly and use charities such as

Sending you all love and see you back on the mat very soon 💕

Have you thought about where you want to give birth? Where you want to labour? Who you want in the room with you?

These are often questions we don’t ask until we’re close to giving birth.

In order to progress our labour, we need to stimulate our oxytocin production, therefore by ensuring your birthing environment is calm, safe and right for you will help you to create a space to drown out the noise, and focus on allowing our body to do what it needs to.

Be confident, be in control.

Learning antenatal education in isolation (and often in the latter part of pregnancy) does not give you the time or ability to prepare the body or the mind – for birthing techniques to be effective, practice is essential. Our active antenatal classes education and active birth techniques are delivered in a truly effective way – linking your education to your breath, your body and your movement – exactly where you will need it on your baby’s birthing day.

A L A B O U R O F L O V E 💜

This week’s story is one where we can see why preparations for birth can be so important as to how we advocate for ourselves in light of barriers we may face.

This Mum is incredibly resilient and so eloquent on how she advocated for herself 🦾 but this story also highlights what work there is to be done around listening to the Mother in labour and birth.

I have a little update regarding Daisy and my lovey little business today.

The franchise The Daisy Foundation will be ceasing to trade from August.

However I will be continuing to provide classes and workshops going forward but under my very own brand!

So you may see some changes to my social media and booking platform in the coming weeks as I transfer to my own branding but I’ll keep you up to date with anything.

All current classes will be remaining as they are and all bookings are secure and continuing as normal via the daisy website until the point I move them over.

I love my role as an educator and am so grateful that Daisy gave me this starting point from which to offer the support and education to all my Mums and I am excited to continue to do so!

On a personal note, I’m sad to see Daisy go. It’s been so important to me both as a Mum and in my current role.

I’ve made some incredibly amazing friendships that will be lifelong, it gave me a space to figure out being a parent and made it enjoyable to do so.

The women, babies and families I have met are incredible and it’s an honour to do this job and I am forever grateful for the support I have received.

Looking forward to this next chapter and all it can bring!

We had a chat at last night’s birthing class about following your intuition.

Having accurate and up to date statistics and information helps to form our decisions in labour but we should also be listening to our own natural instinct.

By allowing ourselves trust, we give time to process information and listen to our reaction to it.

Remember you are an active participant in your birth and have the ability to make choices when it comes to how your baby enters the world.
