Articles > Midwife Maria's review of Julie's classes

Dear Julie,

I wanted to send you my deepest thanks from Jeff and myself for your friendship and support whilst attending your Parenting and Birthing Classes.

Jeff and I found the ‘Transition into Parenthood’ classes invaluable for resolving many questions and anxieties about birthing and parenting. We were able to feel more positive about natural birthing and we strongly feel that the preparation we undertook helped us to achieve our goal of a home birth. The other "breathing and relaxation" classes also allowed me to release fears my surrounding labour and becoming a parent whilst enabling me to welcome and embrace my labour.

As a midwife at the Birth Centre, I care for women throughout their pregnancy and birth. I would have no hesitation in recommending your Parenting & Birthing Classes to help women trust in themselves, their baby and the birthing process.

I am looking forward to introducing you to our son Elijah Kai, who was born on 6th November 2004 at home with family and friends.

Yours sincerely,

Maria and Jeff Epplett
