We recorded the first episode this week...
Nadia has a whole series sketched out with different members of our community.

The first episode is what is actually happening in Gloucestershire now.

Very exciting to dive in and just do it 🙏

Still carrying something from your birth or pregnancy that no one can quite see, but you feel it every day? 🤍

You don’t have to keep holding it alone.

The Three Step Rewind is a gentle, structured process designed to help release the emotional weight of difficult or traumatic experience. Including birth trauma.

Using guided relaxation and simple visualisation, this approach helps your mind and body safely reprocess memories, so they no longer bring the same overwhelm, anxiety or emotional charge.

And the most important part?
You don’t need to relive it.
You don’t need to retell every detail.

This is calm, supported healing, at your pace.

The investment covers all 3 sessions, with your first 45-minute session booked to begin your journey.

✨ If you’re ready to feel lighter, safer and more like yourself again, explore booking when it feels right for you

The world focuses so much on the baby, but you matter just as much 🤍

Those early days can feel like a blur of emotions, healing, feeding and trying to find your feet in a completely new version of life.

It’s beautiful, but it can also feel overwhelming, exhausting and tender all at once.

Postnatal support is about holding you through that.

Making sure you’re resting, recovering and feeling cared for, while you learn what works for you and your baby, without pressure or judgement.

Everything from feeding support, emotional reassurance, to simply having someone there who understands, you deserve to feel supported in this chapter too.

✨ You’re not meant to do this alone

If you’re craving calm, nurturing support after birth, I’m here to hold you through it 🤍

Birth is an experience that stays with you forever 🤍

In the middle of decisions, sensations and emotions, it can feel like everything is happening around you, instead of with you.

That’s where the right support changes everything.

Having someone by your side who knows your wishes, understands your journey, and is there purely for you, can bring a sense of calm, clarity and confidence into your birth space.

Birth support isn’t about taking over or replacing your medical team. It’s about making sure you feel heard, supported and never alone.

Whether you’re planning a calm, low-intervention birth or navigating the unexpected, you deserve to feel safe, respected and held throughout.

✨ You don’t have to do this alone

If you’re looking for gentle, continuous support during your birth, I’m here for you 🤍

Pregnancy is more than just preparing for your baby. It is a whole transformation for you too 🤍

I see so many mums-to-be trying to hold it all together, ticking the boxes, doing all the “right” things, and quietly wondering if they’re doing enough.

If that’s you, I want you to know, you already are. You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.

Through antenatal support, I help you slow things down, understand what’s happening in your body, and feel more calm, confident and prepared for birth in a way that actually feels good to you.

No pressure. No overwhelm. Just gentle, supportive guidance so you can step into this next chapter feeling held, not hurried.

If you’re craving that kind of support during your pregnancy, my door is always open 🤍 Drop me a DM or head to my website for more info.

At Birthrights, we stand with all midwives working to deliver safe, rights-based and personalised care to make birth justice a reality for ALL women and birthing people across the UK.

Protecting human rights in maternity care is a collective effort, and midwives play an essential role in ensuring pregnant women and birthing people are treated with dignity, respect and compassion throughout their maternity care.

Maternity care in the UK is increasingly shaped by a culture of blame, fear and mistrust that prioritises Trust liability over personalised, rights-based care, putting both women and birthing people and healthcare professionals at risk. This needs to change. 🪧

To achieve true safety in maternity care, we must ensure midwives and healthcare professionals have the resources, support and training that they need to provide rights-respecting, equitable care. Learn more about our campaign to end coercion in maternity care at đź”—: www.bit.ly/ENDcoercion

This is such useful info - i've recently noticed an absolute obsession at Glouc Royal with colostrum harvesting & supplementation for newborns... healthy newborns!! There is no need for this.

It boils down to midwives not being trained in breastfeeding support.

They claim they are all trained - but colostrum harvesting and supplementation are unecessary in 90% of cases and this pressure is underminding the normal process.

Luckily my clients have had the resources to seek specialist support and knowledge to enable them to feed in the way that they want to.

Hey lovely mums 🤍

I’m looking for Mum’s (pre and post natal) to enjoy some beautiful massage therapy with me, here at Noxon Farm.

If you’re pregnant or in that postnatal blur, your body might be whispering (or shouting) for support…
✨ Aching back, hips or shoulders
✨ Heaviness, tension or swelling
✨ Broken sleep and constant fatigue
✨ Feeling overwhelmed or stuck in go-go-go mode

I’m looking for a small number of pregnant mums and postnatal mums to receive restorative massage treatments at a reduced rate.

These sessions are more than just massage… they’re a blend of nurturing, supportive techniques designed to help your whole body exhale 💫

You may experience:
🌿 Gentle massage to ease tension and soothe aching muscles
🌿 Rebozo techniques to rock, hold and deeply relax the body
🌿 Elements of shiatsu-inspired pressure to support balance and release
🌿 Calming touch to settle your nervous system and help you fully switch off

It’s slow, grounding, restorative care, tailored to what you need in that moment 🤍

✨ Limited reduced-rate spaces available
If your body is craving this kind of support, pop me a message and I’ll send over the details

Looking for a more natural way to feel supported during pregnancy?

Homeopathy in pregnancy is a gentle, holistic option many mums are turning to for both physical and emotional support.

From nausea and fatigue to anxiety and aches, it works with your body to help restore balance 🤍

✨ Drug-free
✨ Non-invasive
✨ Supports your overall wellbeing

If you’re based in the Forest of Dean and want antenatal classes that go beyond the basics, I offer real tools, real support, and a space to feel confident in your journey.

Have you used homeopathy before? Let me know in the comments.
