My Story
Hi, I’m Sarah! Mum, Midwife and Your Parent Club Founder
‘As much as possible, I want to remove fear and leave you feeling brave and ready to face whatever lies ahead. As well as providing practical hands-on knowledge and support, I understand the emotional impact of pregnancy, labour and birth – not to mention the demands of caring for a newborn.’
I’ve always believed in the power of antenatal education. As a qualified midwife with more than a decade of experience, I’ve seen the difference it can make. I even invested in private antenatal classes during my own pregnancy. Despite my medical background, I felt it was an important rite of passage for new parents and something I wanted my husband to experience. However, attending these classes, followed by the arrival of our little girl, Maeve, helped me identify huge gaps in the preparation and support available.
In the end, my pregnancy and birth were far from straightforward. As a family, we found ourselves navigating pre-eclampsia, emergency surgery and a five-day stint in the NICU for Maeve. Through this, we quickly realised we hadn’t been given sufficient knowledge and skills to truly flourish and thrive as new parents.
Your Parent Club offers group antenatal classes in Hertfordshire and a range of 1:1 sessions delivered in-person and online. As a qualified midwife, I’m committed to providing comprehensive, evidence-led, up-to-date information on things like birth choices, pain relief options and infant feeding. I also cover topics not typically included within most mainstream antenatal education such as the fourth trimester.
Classes include a social element too, connecting you with like-minded parents and local businesses. As well as forming new friendships, you’ll be building a support-network you can rely on for years to come. To nurture the bonds formed during the course, Your Parent Club also hosts regular seasonal events.
‘With a modern, holistic approach, Your Parent Club fills these gaps, transforming antenatal education and empowering the next generation of parents. Nine months won’t feel like long enough to prepare to fall in love for a lifetime, but with my support, you’ll be ready for your greatest adventure!’
