The Green Midwife

Laura is brilliant, so personable and willing to answer any questions! We've also completed her courses on VBAC and homebirth and they're so informative. She gives a well rounded approach and she's really encouraged me in so many ways trusting my body can do it. I appreciate all her knowledge and the information she can provide from every perspective.

I did the 5 week course with Laura (4 weeks antenatal and 1 postnatal session) and could not recommend it highly enough. Her knowledge and advice has made me feel so much more prepared for labour and birth and what’s to come! Would definitely recommend to anyone that is expecting!

Positive and friendly group environment. Both me and my partner found the course to be really helpful and informative and it also helped us set time aside where we had to focus on the pregnancy without distractions. I would recommend this course if you want to know more about the stages of labour, interventions, ways to be supportive as a birth partner and also some useful hypnobirthing techniques. Laura was lovely and so was the other people that attended the course, it was a very supportive and relaxed environment. Highly recommend.

Laura shares really accessible information and keeps the focus on supporting choice and being informed. Her voice is a breath of fresh air in a maternity system that often feels like it does neither and pushes people into certain pathways based on policy with little discussion of alternatives.

We did Laura’s antenatal & hypnobirthing course to prepare for our second child and it was so helpful for us. We went through a less-than-ideal medical induction with our first child, so were determined to have a more positive experience this time. The course taught us more about the process of labour and alternative pain relief/coping mechanisms, as well as giving us more knowledge about our rights.Laura is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, and was happy to answer specific questions and alleviate concerns. She always refers back to studies or other experts for statistics and evidence, which I find so helpful. She explains things clearly without loads of medical jargon.I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this course - it has been so helpful and I’m now feeling confident about mine and my body’s ability to birth our next child. Thank you Laura!

Laura is absolutely incredible! She has so much experience and wisdom when it comes to all things birth and postnatally too. She was a great support to us during pregnancy. Highly recommend :)

We did hypnobirthing and antenatal classes with Laura and they were invaluable in preparing us for birth. Laura was very happy to answer specific questions about our situation and was able to share reams of additional resources for us to explore our questions further.Laura's passion for informed birth meant that we felt empowered to advocate for the birth we wanted, after fully exploring all the options and associated benefits/risks. We ended up having a beautiful homebirth which we were so grateful for - I truly don't think we'd have been brave enough to do this without the knowledge and guidance Laura provided us.I would recommend Laura to anyone who is hoping for a positive birth experience, whatever that might look like for them!

Amazing! We’ve just finished our Hypnobirthing antenatal classes with Laura and they were fab. Each week has a topic and over the sessions everything is covered. We’ve come away feeling so much more knowledgeable and confident for birth with different tips and tricks to equip us. It was lovely to meet other parents to be in the area and share our journeys so far. I’m gutted they’ve come to an end!! Thanks again Laura xx

Laura's antenatal course is so good. She's amazing at distilling her wisdom and many years of experience into simple, down-to-earth training. It was practical, empowering, reassuring, often completely fascinating, and helped me appreciate my role as a birth partner as well as understanding more about what my wife will be going through.

I attended a few of Laura's Webinar sessions during pregnancy and found them incredibly helpful and informative. The information is presented in an easy to understand format by a really clear and eloquent midwife, with research to back up any facts. The fact that Laura is also a practicing NHS midwife really helps with understanding how a lot of the information provided works in practice within our healthcare system. Thank for you taking the time to help parents like me by providing such useful and evidence based information, alongside your already super busy schedule. Would highly recommend.
