Right now, your baby is living in the most serene and wonderful environment imaginable. Warm, soft, dark, muffled sounds, delicate tastes; floating in pure relaxation. No-one to disturb, protected, loved, safe.
BirthSkills childbirth preparation and education is for Mums and Dads who would like to make their baby's Birth-Day a gentle, welcoming transition from the womb to the world.
You will learn skills and techniques that will help you to feel calm and in control during labour and birth. Partners will know what is happening inside your body and how to help during each stage of the birthing process. Your baby will be born into a gentle and loving environment, received by calm, confident, welcoming arms.

Dr Shari Read, author of The BirthSkills Book.
Email received 30/08/2009: "I wanted to tell you that I am finding your BirthSkills book so wonderful. At least two or three occasions now I have been drawn to just open it randomly, and each time it has opened right on the information that is exactly what I need at that time. I find it so reassuring to have it as a resource and just trust that it brings me what I need when I need it. So thank you for creating this wonderful and powerful book." Penn Oct 09
